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 ...

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 ...

Repeatability means the ability to produce parts that have identical properties. As with other manufacturing processes, this capability is very important in injection molding because it has a crucial ...

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 ...

A joint project to optimize injection molding using flow simulation data has produced actual process performance nearly identical to the modeled performance, according to Oerlikon HRSflow. The ...

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, ...

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 ...

The Metal Injection Molding (MIM) process is a game changer in manufacturing. It combines the design flexibility of Plastic Injection Molding with the strength and integrity of wrought metals, ...
