Why we need a classification of injection moulding processes?

During our investigations of the state of the art of injection moulding of material and substances we found out that there are at least 235 processes which can be classified as injection moulding of the living and the non-living. The aim of this study is also to present these processes in a logical order. We use two systems of codes. The aim of the first code (31 digits) is only for the proper classification of processes into the main groups. The second one is a code with 7 digits which are for practical use. We made this description by dividing the necessary criteria into 5 main groups. The basic criterion is the injection pressure. Full description of all the 235 or even more processes demands an international cooperative project, which must unify the academia and the industry.
