One problem associated with known injection molds is that usually a two part mold is configured in such a way that a product formed in the mold is not held in either part of the two part mold so that the product must be fixed to a machine by particular holding, gripping or fixation devices for further machining. Thus, there remains a need for an improved method for manufacturing a product by injection molding with an injection mold which permits machining or a removal of a portion of the injection mold so that the product is firmly held in the remaining part of the injection mold and can be further processed or machined without the need for additional holding, gripping or fixation devices.
