Industrial design is an applied art whereby the aesthetics and usability of mass-produced products may be improved for marketability and production. The role of an Industrial Designer is to create and execute design solutions towards problems of form, usability, user ergonomics, engineering, marketing, brand development and sales. […]
Although most injection molding processes are covered by the conventional process description above, there are several important molding variations including: […]
Mould Flow Analysis, Mould flow simulation allows optimisation of the part and mould design by adjusting areas such as gate positions, wall thickness and cooling parameters to help achieve success. […]
Provides unique, economic solutions to increasingly stringent material and product design requirements […]
The continuous strides forward in science and technology lead to ever increasing demands on materials. Ceramics have significant advantages characterised by their outstanding physical, chemical, mechanical, thermal and/or electrical properties. […]
The CIM process begins with very fine ceramic powders. Using sophisticated mixing technology the powders are compounded with thermoplastic binders to produce a homogeneous pelletised feedstock. […]
Die surface machining has been in the area of attention. With the new technologies, new technology development, many of the traditional approach has been not very applicable. The complex shape of the mold, the best way to deal with the surface of the laser, it is virtually non-deformation, surface hardness than the conventional way to [...]
1) Size, it is said isn’t everything, and that is certainly true in the case of the latest developments in injection moulding. The emerging micro moulding is taking injection moulding technology down to a new scale and a new level of intricacy and accuracy that has simply not been possible until now. Parts weighing no [...]
Hasco has developed a mini hot runner system for direct injection moulding, without gating, of small parts and micro-parts. […]
Mazda Motor Corporation has developed a new plastic molding technology that enables a substantial reduction in the weight of plastic parts used in vehicles. This plastic molding manufacturing technique cuts the consumption of plastic resins that are used as raw material by approximately 20 to 30 percent, with associated reductions in vehicle weight. [...]
