German term or phrase: Hinterspritzen vs. Hinterpressen
Part of this document has already been translated, but the client has told me to feel free to correct it where necessary as the translation is not too good. In the previously translated part:

"Hinterspritzen" = injection pressure moulding
"Hinterpressen" = low pressure moulding

Can anyone with experience in this field verify whether this is an acceptable distinction?

Thanks in advance!

in-mould labelling is another name for Hinterspritzen. IML actually stands for In-mould labelling and not in-mould laminating, but the abbreviations IML/IMD are quite widespread terms for "Hinterspritzen"
