How to make mold tolerances
Although designers should always provide generous tolerances whenever possible, there are many times tight tolerances must be maintained for fit, function or appearance. These images illustrate design details in a set of injection molded parts that were required to comply with reasonable, […]
The importance of choosing molding material
Materials are often specified early in the design process and should be mutually agreed upon by both parties. Sometimes molders may purchase large quantities of specific resins at major discounts. These discounts can be passed on to customers. For example, if a designer can specify an ABS grade that matches the properties of one purchased [...]
