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, ...

If you’re interested in learning more about whether 3D printers can be used for injection molding. You might be interested in a series of tests carried out by the CNC Kitchen to explore the ...

Think you’ve squeezed the maximum weight and cycle time out of your injection-molded design? Users of MuCell microcellular-foam technology beg to differ. They’ve cut part weight 8 to 12% without major ...

Injection molding is a highly-engineered process that demands careful planning and attention to detail if the finished product is to achieve its full potential. The tips in this article should help ...

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 ...

Since the technology became broadly available in 2017, a growing number of injection molders have been learning how the iMFLUX low-pressure process can reduce both cycle times and reject rates, ...
