This research was carried out to identify feasible alternative techniques of injection mould making for low volumes. A quantitative analysis was carried out with respect to quality and cost on these methods in Sri Lankan context. Further analysis revealed that reusable mould base method, based on the interchangeability of components is the most feasible method of production, which reduces costs by 30% to 70%.. This was illustrated by a case study and a detailed design.Conference-Abstract2008Research for IndustryFaculty of Engineering, University of Moratuwa145-14614th Annual Symposium on Research and Industry
