Injection moulding is a complex system of machinery, fluid dynamics, and thermal conductivity. Let’s break the mould down into two simple parts, the heat exchanger and the pressure vessel, and review how they can impact overall part quality and dimensions.
Falling weight impact tests can yield much more relevant information than single-point impact testing; however, they come with their own Read More
