A new patent-protected method and technology for micro molding medical parts, created by Westfall Technik, eliminates cold runners and increases the allowable residence time of material in the machine ...

Static mixers in hot runners improve polymer mixing while 3D simulation accelerates design optimization for injection molding.

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 ...
