There is an overriding misconception in the manufacturing universe that only manufacturers who perform high-speed cutting benefit from balancing their tools before putting them to work. The fact is anyone who cuts anything on a machine tool stands to benefit from the improved productivity and process reliability, and increased tool and spindle life that result [...]
Face milling, especially high volume, with the High-Feed Milling method is perfect for creating a good platform for further machining operations or a final finishing. In most HFM applications, you’ll often get such close tolerances that only final finishing is needed. […]
Today, as more shops are equipped with high-speed CNC machining capability and sophisticated CAM programs, high-feed milling (HFM) is becoming the methodology of choice to remove as much material as possible in the shortest time. Basically, HFM is a roughing method developed for high metal removal rates to increase productivity and save machining time. [...]
HeatBy using trochoidal paths you can minimize heat build-up. Controlling heat is paramount in getting consistent performance from high quality tools in difficult alloys. Heat dramatically reduces tool life and is a major cause of tool failure. […]
High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE) High impact strength Low temperature toughness, Excellent resistance to chemicals, Good electrical insulating properties, and Poor ultraviolet resistance. […]
Coextrusion Blow Molding of Large PartsCoextrusion is used extensively in small bottles and containers, but increasingly also for large blow molded parts (18.92 liters or 5 gallons and larger). Its growth, however, is very healthy and will accelerate in the coming years because of the need for recycling of plastic and the application of this [...]
There are six kinds of PET Blow Molding Machineries: Single Stage Blow Molding Machine Two Stage Blow Molding Machine Integrated Two Stage Blow Molding Machine PET Blow Molding Machines Automatic PET blow molding machine Semi Automatic PET blow molding machine Single Stage Blow Molding Machine […]
With the commercial introduction of containers, stretch blow molding became a common term in the blow molding industry. […]
The injection molding phase consists of injection molding a thermoplastic material into a hollow, tube-shaped article called a preform. The preform is transferred on a metal shank, called the core rod, into a blow mold. […]
In extrusion blow molding (EBM), plastic is melted and extruded into a hollow tube (a parison). Blow molding is the forming of a hollow object by “blowing” a thermoplastic molten tube called a parison in the shape of a mold cavity. […]
