This paper presented the design process and manufacturing of a benchtop and inexpensive injection moulding machine for use as learning and teaching equipment in a manufacturing laboratory. The design use a vertical plunger type of injection equipped with clamping system. The maximum volume of barrel is 290 cc combined with injection plunger 60 mm provides ideal capacity for lab. The design concept process and preliminary test result are discussed. The flow rate increases with increase of motor speed and the packing time decrease with increase of motor speed. At 2500rpm the flow rate is 0.42m/s and pack time is 15 second.
