Manufacturers use AI and design of experiments to optimize injection molding, cut costs, and speed time-to-market for complex ...

The advantages conferred by foam injection molding are widely understood and appreciated. However, there are limits to the process. Germany''s Institute for Plastics Processing has developed an ...

During the injection molding process, harsh conditions (high temperature, high speed) and deterioration of plastic additives can release high volumes of decomposition gases. Mold deposits, gas burns, ...

Designing plastic parts that can be molded has always been important for traditional injection molding processes, but it’s particularly beneficial for parts about to be rapid injection molded (RIM) to ...

Injection molding machine suppliers feature prominently at this month’s PTXPO in Chicago; see what the press makers have planned for their exhibits.

While 3D printing has now become easily accessible and cheap, there are still several use cases where you need the advantages offered by injection molding, even for small batch runs. Professional ...

3D printing is all well and good for prototyping, and it can even produce useful parts. If you want real strenght in plastics, though, or to produce a LOT of parts, you probably want to step up to ...
