Compression moulding is a relatively simple process involving pressing or squeezing a deformable material charge between two halves of a heated mould and its subsequent transformation into moulded parts after cooling or curing.

The method is used mostly for moulding thermosetting resins, but some thermoplastic parts may also be produced.

The three common types of compression mould designs are open flash type, fully positive type and semi-positive type.

Important factors to be considered in compression moulding are

Amount of plastic charge.

Heating time.

*Melting temperature of plastic charge.

Pressure required to force the material into the mould cavity.

*Cooling time.
