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 ...

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

There are a number of advantages to dip molding and coating that makes these processes both cost-effective and time-efficient. The molds, called "mandrels," are typically needed for the dip molding ...

Erie Pa. — A low-pressure injection molding machine that can use multiple extruders that heat the melt in an electrically heated barrel, then pump the material into the mold gives low shear, lower ...

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 ...

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

The plastics industry continues to seek solutions to help it meet circular economy demands. As pressure builds for the industry to increase the amount of recycled plastics used in manufacturing, ...

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

Automation is one facet of injection molding where investment continues. "The industry is seeing a downward trend for new molding machines, but robots and automation remain strong as processors still ...
