Keeping moldability top of mind during the design process not only ensures that parts perform as intended, but can help save time and cut down on production costs. Before it even hits the factory ...

The global market for plastic injection molded parts is currently valued at $325 billion, and this number is expected to grow by 5.7% through at least 2025. Spurred by the rapidly developing economies ...

There are 10 parameters that design engineers must keep front of mind when designing parts for injection molding, but they are all predicated on one simple, low-cost method for ensuring perfect molded ...

Although everyone knows that plastic injection molding can produce mass volumes of parts with precision and low cost, not every manufacturer gets the process right, which could defeat its purpose and ...

Before committing to any high-cost injection molding tooling, it is recommended that you first create your design and test your prototype’s functionality. This will keep your cost down as it allows ...

Injection molding has long been the workhorse for producing plastic parts. It’s economical for high volumes and offers reliable and repeatable methods for most designs. Additive manufacturing, also ...

In high-volume injection molding, hot runner systems are the silent workhorses behind every shot. They govern how melt flows, how cavities fill, how much pressure is needed, and, ultimately, part ...

Westfall Technik’s MHS says its patented pneumatic actuator technology represents a paradigm shift from the standard design’s need for seals and cooling.
