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, ...

Milacron Co-injection molding uses a proprietary, simultaneous co-injection process with every system. This process allows the cavity to be filled in exactly the same amount of time as a monolayer ...

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 ...

Lightweight parts, energy-saving processing or combining several process steps into one. It can all be summarized under one buzzword: sustainability. A technology that is highly promising is ...

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 ...

Nylon is one of the most widely used engineering thermoplastics due to its excellent mechanical properties, such as high strength, wear resistance, and low friction. Tianjin SWKS Technology & ...

Not long ago I wrote a column about choosing between industrial robots and collaborative robots (co-bots) for various manufacturing applications. While speaking with Ryan Guthrie, senior vice ...

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, ...
