"Multi-material injection molding (MMM) is the process of molding two or more different materials into one plastic part at one time. Multi material injection molding uses materials that are at or near their melting point so that the semi-liquidous (viscous) material can fill voids and cavities within a pre-machined mold, thus taking on the desired shape of designed tooling. The three most widely used methods of MMM fabrication are: multi-component; multi-shot and over-molding.This project aims to extend current state of the art manufacturing processes to enable a step change in productivity and competitiveness, resulting in a novel UK based manufacturing method using an injection process.Think Product Lab IP Holding Ltd are an established innovator of disruptive consumer products, with a number of filed patents, and an established core UK team. The parent group sell consumer goods under the Flint brand name. Since 2008 we have enjoyed success with a novel lint fluff catcher product, which has disrupted the existing lint category in over 30 countries. Products under the Flint portfolio are now sold in over 20,000 stores in the US with listings in Target, Bed Bath, Walmart, Staples, Kroger. We well in the UK through our own website www.meetflint.com. Over 1 million units have been manufactured, sold and shipped in the first 12 months after launch. We have assembled a multi disciplinary team between the company, and UK based contractors to tackle this exciting project."

多材料注射成型（MMM）是将两种或两种以上不同的材料一次成型为一个塑料部件的过程。多材料注射成型使用处于或接近其熔点的材料，以便半液态（粘性）材料可以填充预加工模具内的空隙和空腔，从而呈现设计模具所需的形状。三种最广泛使用的制造MMM的方法是：多组分；多镜头和复模。该项目旨在扩展当前最先进的制造工艺，以实现生产率和竞争力的阶段性变化，从而产生一种基于英国的新型注射工艺制造方法。Think Product Lab IP Holding Ltd是一家成熟的颠覆性消费产品创新者，拥有多项专利，并拥有一支成熟的英国核心团队。母公司集团以弗林特品牌销售消费品。自2008年以来，我们已经享受了成功的一种新颖的棉绒绒毛捕集器产品，它已经打破了现有的棉绒类别在30多个国家。弗林特的产品组合现在在美国的2万多家商店销售，在塔吉特、床浴、沃尔玛、史泰博、克罗格上市。我们在英国有自己的网站www.meetflint.com。在发布后的头12个月里，已经生产、销售和出货了超过100万台。我们已经组建了一个由公司和英国承包商组成的多学科团队来解决这个令人兴奋的项目。”
