Injection molding is one of the technologies that makes the world go round. But what does it actually look like to go through the whole process to get a part made? [Achim Haug] wrote up a blog post ...
An effective process typically starts by milling or turning mold-forming material, followed by heat treating (in the case of hardened steel), grinding, refined shaping, and finishing treatments like ...
One of the greatest disadvantages of plastic materials is their flexibility and relatively low stiffness. One of the greatest advantages of plastic materials is their flexibility and low stiffness.
It's a Holy Grail of plastics: Clear, coinjection molded containers to replace metal cans, the common “tin can” produced by the billions each year. You can see it in action at NPE 2015: The Klear Can ...
The global market for plastic injection molded parts is currently valued at $325 billion, and this number is expected to grow by 5.7% through at least 2025. Spurred by the rapidly developing economies ...
Co-injection technology has been in existence for more than three decades, but recently transformed into a mainstream alternative for manufacturers in plastics processing. As consumer demands continue ...
3D printing is all well and good if you want one of something, but if you want lots of plastic parts that are all largely identical, you should consider injection molding. You can pay someone to do ...
European researchers claim to have successfully demonstrated the embedment of organic PV (OPV) modules into structural plastic parts via large-scale industrial injection molding (IM). IM is a ...
