Magnesium injection molding is used to manufacture millions of components from magnesium alloys for various applications, including computer, camera and consumer electronic housings; automotive parts; sporting goods; and household and office equipment.

This book presents both the scientific background and the technological aspects of magnesium injection molding. It covers all aspects of material development, manufacturing and engineering, including production, processing and application of magnesium and its alloys; research and practical implementation of magnesium injection molding and die casting; semisolid processing of alloys and composites; and design and building machinery, applicable for magnesium processing.
