Plastic Injection Molding, Volume I – Manufacturing Process Fundamentals
Plastic Injection Molding, Volume I – Manufacturing Process Fundamentals represents over three decades of my involvement in the plastics industry, most of which was spent in injection molding of thermoplastic materials. Through those years, it became apparent to me that most of the people in this industry had learned what they know by doing. Their skills were honed by making mistakes, learning from those mistakes, and plunging forward to discover other areas in which the learning process had to be repeated. While this method of attaining knowledge did work, I felt it would be better if novices to the industry could be made aware of the basics before being ex-posed to the trials and tribulations that accompany typical seat-of-the-pants accumulation of knowledge.
