Plastic Injection Molding, Volume II – Material Selection and Product Design Fundamentals
Plastic Injection Molding Volume II – Material Selection and Product Design Fundamentals
Plastic Injection Molding Volume II – Material Selection and Product Design Fundamentals in the Society of Manufacturing Engineers’ Fundamentals of Injection Molding series intended for those requiring an awareness of the basics before being exposed to the trials and tribulations that accompany typical seat-of-the-pants accumulation of knowledge. It is also intended as a refresher (and maybe a source of new data) for those who have been in the business for awhile but wish to stay on top of things. Although the majority of information herein addresses the material selection and product design phases of the thermo-plastic injection molding process, some material from Volume 1 is included to provide the continuity necessary to adequately describe the two phases within the context of the injection molding process as a whole.A good design requires the selection of the proper material.
