Injection Molding Machines

Author: Friedrich Johannaber
Publisher: Carl Hanser Verlag GmbH Co KG
ISBN: 3446450114
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 394

Book Description
Although the basic injection molding technology has not changed much since the publication of the 3rd edition of "Injection Molding Machines", there has been considerable progress in certain process applications that make special demands on machinery and their control functions in particular. The book provides an elegant, succinct description of the injection molding process. By concentrating on a few key parameters, such as pressure, temperature, their rates, and their influence on the properties of moldings, it provides a clear insight into this technology. The subsequent comprehensive presentation of technical data relating to individual machine components and performance is unique and will be especially appreciated by practitioners.

Book Description
The IM Troubleshooting Guide was originally prepared in 1996 as a 48 page convenient pocket sized resource for use in Injection Molding. This information is most useful by personnel who work in the injection molding field including press operators, technicians, engineers, etc. This 3rd ED is at 104 pages and includes selected extra pages from other APEBOOKS that are helpful in process set up and troubleshooting.This book includes many useful definitions and tips for troubleshooting molding problems -- both process and tooling related. The book was written based on many years of process engineering. The solutions for correcting process problems are listed in the best order to solve the problem based on factors such as ease & timeliness to perform versus cost to implement and always considering effectiveness to solve problem. It is also useful to identify a common set of definitions for each department to use when discussing these common molding defects. Tips are often provided as to which defects may be process correctable versus those requiring product or mold changes.An introduction to DOE and dimensional nominalization is made, but discussed in greater detail in some of the other booklets written by this author for injection molding ... these are listed later in this book ... a total of six books have been written for injection molding.

Injection Mold Design Engineering

Publisher: Carl Hanser Verlag GmbH Co KG
ISBN: 3446434194
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 446

Book Description
This book provides a vision and structure to finally synergize all the engineering disciplines that converge in the mold design process. The topics are presented in a top-down manner, beginning with introductory definitions and the "big picture" before proceeding to layout and detailed design of molds. The book provides very pragmatic analysis with worked examples that can be readily adapted to "real world" mold design applications. It should help students and practitioners to understand the inner workings of injection molds and encourage them to think "outside the box" in developing innovative and highly functional mold designs. Contents: · Introduction to mold functions, types, and components · Review of design for injection molding · Cost estimation and optimization · Mold layout design including cavity layout, sizing, and materials selection · Cavity, runner system, and gating analysis and design · Cooling system analysis and design · Venting, shrinkage, and warpage analysis and strategies · Ejection force analysis and ejection system designs · Stress and deflection analysis with structural system designs · A survey of advanced mold designs

The Secrets of Building a Plastic Injection Molding Machine

Author: Vincent R. Gingery
Publisher: David J. Gingery Publishing, LLC
ISBN: 1878087525
Category : Crafts & Hobbies
Languages : en
Pages : 107

Book Description
Here is a book that brings the art of plastic injection molding to the home shop level. Working with plastics can be a fun and profitable hobby. If you have ever wanted to produce custom made plastic parts or just want to know how it’s done then this book is for you. Included are complete step by step instructions on how to build a small inexpensive table top injection molding machine capable of injecting up to 1/2 ounce of plastic into a mold. Sources for plastic will be those things normally thrown away. Stuff like plastic milk jugs, soda pop bottles, plastic oil cans etc. You will learn the basic principles of injection molding and how to design and make your own molds. Begin by making a simple mold to test the machine. Then a mold for a plastic knob that will be used on the machine. Progress to a mold for a small plastic container with a snap lid. It won’t be long before you will be creating new products of your own design. I’ll even show you how to cast replacements for broken or missing plastic parts. Just think of the possibilities. And the finished items you make will turn out so nice and look so professional that it will be hard to believe you made them yourself. Construction is simple and straight forward, but it will require basic metal working knowledge and access to a metal lathe and a drill press along with other hand and power tools associated with metal working and machine work in general.

Plastic Blow Molding Handbook

Author: N.C. Lee
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 9789401169905

Pages : 560

Book Description
Over the years, numerous handbooks and design guides on the subject of plastics have been published. None of these dealt in any depth with the subject of this handbook-blow molding. The recent growth of blow molding as an economically feasible process has been rapid in many areas. This growth, coupled with the lack of technical publications relating to blow molding, prompted the Board of Directors of the Blow Molding Division of the Society of Plastic Engineers to undertake the assimilation of available information and the editing of this milestone publication. We believe that this Plastic Blow Molding Handbook will provide the reader with a greater understanding of the unique process characteristics of blow molding, enable the reader to apply proven techniques in developing new products and applications for blow molding, and will serve as a valuable reference for all who are interested in the plastics industry. Our thanks are heartily extended to the various authors for their con tributions to this pioneering effort in blow molding. J. H. Moran Chairman Blow Molding Division Society of Plastic Engineers xi Preface The blow molding of plastic articles has in the past had an aura of the mystic around it. As a result, little comprehensive work on the subject has been published. Advances in the technology of polymeric materials, machine controls, computer science, and management techniques have made it nec essary to correct the myths and magic.
