First, let’s establish that every process must follow normal scientific molding protocol. With pack and hold at zero, the shot should be 95 to 98% full. Temperatures and pressures should be kept as ...

In the fast-paced world of process engineering, process development is crucial to the success or failure of a plastic injection system. Solid processes must run at 100% efficiency with preferably zero ...

Most of the plastic products we use are made through injection molding, a process in which molten plastic is injected into a ...

The injection blow moulding process is a key conventional process that enables the production of hollow plastic parts from a pre-moulded semi-finished piece, commonly referred to as a preform. It ...

Nicolet Plastics LLC, a Wisconsin-based custom plastic injection molder providing manufacturing and engineering support for a range of industries, today announced the addition of a 360-ton two-shot ...

Purging a plastic injection molding machine with resin or regrind for color changes or carbon removal often leads to costly waste and lost production time. Along with the right purging compound, there ...

Penn State researchers have developed the first powder injection molding process for pure niobium, a biocompatible material similar to platinum and titanium but cheaper. Penn State researchers have ...

PIM uses sinterable powders to manufacture very intricate components. Unlike traditional press-and-sinter powder metallurgy processes, PIM could potentially allow the economic mass production of dense ...

An injection molded, threaded cap made from a 3D-printed metal mold insert, right, created on a Mantle P-200 machine. Within reach of you right now are probably five to 10 plastic products, or parts ...

A group of German designers have created stool seats from oddly shaped pieces of recycled plastic produced at an injection-moulding factory. Presented last week at the Ambiente trade show in Frankfurt ...
