"text": "The injection machine is a great tool to raise awareness about plastic pollution and demonstrate the plastic recycling process.\nHowever if you need to produce many parts, the process can be a little tedious and wasteful:\n\n-Threaded Connection ---> Often get clogged up by molten plastic, making the assembly difficult and require cleaning between each cycle\n\n-Hard to demold ---> Mold connector creates undercut shapes and is hard to demold\n\nHere are the specifications that the upgrade system must achieve:\n\n1-\tAllow molds to be attached and detached from the machine in 1 movement\n2-\tReduce uncomfortable position for the operator\n3-\tReduce production waste\n4-\tBe usable with gloves easily \n5-\tReduce cycle time\n6-\tRevoke the need for a plug \n7-\tDo not require cleaning between each cycle\n\nThe trick is to use a brass garden hose connector, available in gardening and home improvement store, to easily connect your mold ans be more efficient!",
