Compression molded “smoke pan” designed for conversion from 2-D to 3-D form. Hat angle and plateau optimized to prevent part from shrinking against mold surfaces. Angle changes optimized with radii to ...
Predominantly, if the metal part used in compression molding is tension or compression loaded, a ratio of metal part thickness to its extensional modulus, multiplied by the Bulk Molding Compound (BMC) ...
Rib parts (top) trialed using spring-frame molding (shown here, bottom, with curved C-channel part) and double diaphragm forming (DDF) processes in the DARPA-funded and Boeing co-funded RAPM program ...
There are few applications in which materials quality is more important than in the production of polycarbonate ophthalmic lenses. The slightest variation from perfection can alter the prescription ...
