Download or read book The Mould Design Guide written by Peter Jones and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 540 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides design engineers, toolmakers, moulding technicians and production engineers with an in depth guide to the design and manufacture of mould tools that work successfully in production. It highlights the necessity to design a mould tool that allows overall production to make an acceptable profit, and whilst it is recognised that not all design engineers will be able to influence the profitability factor it is an important aspect to consider.The guide focuses on designs that will produce the required production rate and quality of mouldings in a consistent and reliable fashion; the key components of a successful mould tool. The introductory chapters outline the injection moulding process, basic moulding parameters and overall machine construction. Dedicated chapters give a full account of all the variables that should be taken into account.
Download or read book Handbook of Thermoplastics Injection Mould Design written by P.S. Cracknell and published by Springer. This book was released on 2014-09-12 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Injection moulding is one of the most important methods of manufacturing plastics products. Through the development of sophisticated micro processor control systems, the modern injection moulding machine is capable of producing precision mouldings with close tolerances in large numbers and with excellent reproducibility. This capability, however, is often limited by the lack of a proper appreciation of mould design. The mould, or tool as it is often called, is at the heart of the injection moulding process. Its basic function is to accept the plastic melt from the injection unit and cool it to the desired shape prior to ejection. It is not, however, simply a matter of the mould having an impression of the shape to be moulded. Many other factors have to be taken into account - for example, the ability to fill the mould impression properly and efficiently without inducing weaknesses in the moulding and the efficient cooling of the moulding in order to maximise production rates without diminishing the quality of the moulding. In addition, the type of mould, gate and runner system, and ejection system which will best meet the needs of a particular job specification have to be determined. In our experience lack of attention to such factors leads to the mould limiting the ability of the injection moulding machine and preventing the process as a whole from achieving its true potential.

Download or read book Injection Molding Handbook written by D.V. Rosato and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 1484 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This third edition has been written to thoroughly update the coverage of injection molding in the World of Plastics. There have been changes, including extensive additions, to over 50% of the content of the second edition. Many examples are provided of processing different plastics and relating the results to critiCal factors, which range from product design to meeting performance requirements to reducing costs to zero-defect targets. Changes have not been made that concern what is basic to injection molding. However, more basic information has been added concerning present and future developments, resulting in the book being more useful for a long time to come. Detailed explanations and interpretation of individual subjects (more than 1500) are provided, using a total of 914 figures and 209 tables. Throughout the book there is extensive information on problems and solutions as well as extensive cross referencing on its many different subjects. This book represents the ENCYCLOPEDIA on IM, as is evident from its extensive and detailed text that follows from its lengthy Table of CONTENTS and INDEX with over 5200 entries. The worldwide industry encompasses many hundreds of useful plastic-related computer programs. This book lists these programs (ranging from operational training to product design to molding to marketing) and explains them briefly, but no program or series of programs can provide the details obtained and the extent of information contained in this single sourcebook.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A practical reference for all plastics engineers who are seeking to answer a question, solve a problem, reduce a cost, improve a design or fabrication process, or even venture into a new market. Applied Plastics Engineering Handbook covers both polymer basics – helpful to bring readers quickly up to speed if they are not familiar with a particular area of plastics processing – and recent developments – enabling practitioners to discover which options best fit their requirements. Each chapter is an authoritative source of practical advice for engineers, providing authoritative guidance from experts that will lead to cost savings and process improvements. Throughout the book, the focus is on the engineering aspects of producing and using plastics. The properties of plastics are explained along with techniques for testing, measuring, enhancing and analyzing them. Practical introductions to both core topics and new developments make this work equally valuable for newly qualified plastics engineers seeking the practical rules-of-thumb they don’t teach you in school, and experienced practitioners evaluating new technologies or getting up to speed on a new field The depth and detail of the coverage of new developments enables engineers and managers to gain knowledge of, and evaluate, new technologies and materials in key growth areas such as biomaterials and nanotechnology This highly practical handbook is set apart from other references in the field, being written by engineers for an audience of engineers and providing a wealth of real-world examples, best practice guidance and rules-of-thumb

Download or read book DuBois and Pribble s Plastics Mold Engineering Handbook written by M.L. Buckleitner and published by Springer. This book was released on 1995-06-14 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From day one of the concept of this book (about 1941), our objective has been to make the elearest possible statements about the thinking processes which go into the good design of a mold. CarefuHy chosen illustrations show the rational process. Recommendations are made to maximize the effectiveness. Basically, the design of a mold is only one-third of the team effort in producing a particular plastic part. The best molder in the world will be handicapped by a badly designed or a badly made mold. The best mold maker in the world cannot make a good mold from a bad design. The best design in the world will only be the best when the mold is weH made and operated by a knowledgeable molder. Being right the first time is, or should be, the prime objective of any mold designer. In the 1930's and 40's, it seemed every mold was an "invention. " A 1500 ton compression press was a "monster. " There were few design guidelines except the expertise of those toolmakers who had to use my designs. Fortunately for me, when a problem arose, my immediate mentor simply said, "Wayne, you designed it-go take care of the problem. " The comments of those toolmakers were not always complimentary.

Download or read book Mould Making for Glass written by Angela Thwaites and published by Herbert Press. This book was released on 2019-06-11 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nearly all glass makers (unless they are blowing glass) need moulds which can go in the kiln, as part of the process of creating their work. Currently glass students and makers get their expertise and recipes from lots of different sources, picking out the relevant bits and pieces which they need from other glass and ceramic books. This book aims to introduce all the mould-making techniques for casting glass, with detailed information on materials, recipes for mould mixes, methods and applications. It helps the student to learn which methods are appropriate for different types of work, and covers all the basics of how to make your mould. It also includes practical information on sourcing, storing, using and recycling materials, and how to develop your own recipes and methods for particular projects. It also covers where to start with writing programmes for kiln firings including annealing and cooling. It also contains images from well-known artists working in cast glass throughout.
