Hot runner manufacturer Mold-Masters will utilize Moldex3D 3D injection molding simulation software for design verification and optimization of hot runner systems. CoreTech System Co. Ltd. (Hsinchu, ...

An effective process typically starts by milling or turning mold-forming material, followed by heat treating (in the case of hardened steel), grinding, refined shaping, and finishing treatments like ...

A new, downloadable software program is intended to help users develop the shape of injection molding runners and gates. An improved user interface requires fewer clicks and produces gating designs ...

Managing polymer melts and temperature variations is key to achieving product quality and operational efficiency.

Cycle time is the primary cost measure of the molding process, and cooling represents about 80% of the molding cycle (see Figure 1). The thicker the part, the longer the cycle time. However, the ...

Oerlikon HRSflow has introduced an improvement to its HRScool hydraulic cylinder system for hot-runner injection molding, first introduced in 2019, which uses advanced temperature management ...

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 ...

Injection overmolding of unidirectional fibers and preforms is an attractive process for many good reasons. It’s fast, consistent and repeatable, and it can be performed with a machine that is ...
