Precision molded thermoplastic parts are used in everything from catheters and IVD cartridges to drug-delivery systems. In fact, the vast majority of medical devices include precision molded ...

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 ...

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, ...

ProMed, a contract manufacturer specializing in liquid silicone rubber (LSR) and highly regulated combination products, has announced new process refinements in the LSR injection molding process ...

Injection molding is a critical manufacturing process, and has been so for a long time. It still has room to improve in several areas however, and “smart” injection molding equipment is gaining ...

The hybrid-composite rear load floor uses unidirectional (UD) thermoplastic tapes plus direct-long-fiber thermoplastic (D-LFT) composites. Thermoplastic tapes provided high stiffness/strength in a ...
