Micro injection molding has become a cornerstone for mass-producing microfluidic devices, yet demolding defects and mold wear remain persistent challenges. This study introduces a nickel mold ...
Self-lubricating nickel mold with nano-fillers enables defect-free polymer microstructure production
New nickel-PTFE nanocomposite mold integrates lubricating particles directly into the matrix, achieving over 1,500 defect-free molding cycles without coatings for microfluidic devices. (Nanowerk News) ...
Co-injection technology has been in existence for more than three decades, but recently transformed into a mainstream alternative for manufacturers in plastics processing. As consumer demands continue ...
A joint research project by the Fraunhofer Institute for Chemical Technology (F-ICT, Pfintzal, Germany) and the Fraunhofer Project Centre for Composites Research (FPC, London, ON, Canada) has been ...
Injection molding is usually focused on high-volume production, but that doesn’t always need to be the case. The Recycled Plastic Skateboard Deck project centers on the use of injection molding for a ...
Customs and Practices of the Moldmaking Industry has been the official guide for the classification of injection molds for thermoplastic materials since the early 1980s, when the Moldmakers Division ...
High strength, dimensional stability and fit accuracy coupled with low weight are the hallmarks of large-format composite components produced using the Long Fiber Injection (LFI) process from ...
Recently [Stefan] of CNC Kitchen took a gander at using his gaggle of 3D printers to try injection molding (IM). Although the IM process generally requires metal molds and specialized machinery, 3D ...
