| | Mould Design and Mould Making | £250.00 | | Rapra Polymer Bulletin |  | | This Polymer Bulletin is a current awareness service from the Polymer Library, the world's largest database dedicated to polymer literature. Each time the abstracts database is updated with new records (approx. every two weeks) you will be sent a bulletin alerting you to any items that relate to mould design and mould making. Please see the sample issue below (request further samples)
All plastics and rubbers have the potential to be moulded into a desired shape. For example once PVC is in a molten state it can be injected into a preformed shape or mould and allowed to cool thus taking the shape of the mould. Consequently the moulds used to form a rubber or plastic product play a very important role in the industry. A mould can be described simplistically as an arrangement of one, or a number of, hollow cavity spaces fitted together to resemble the shape of the desired product. Whilst the design of a mould is within the scope of an experienced mould maker, the process rarely produces an ideal mould immediately. Moulds must be altered three, four or even more times before they can be used satisfactorily and much more expensive machine time is necessary to establish the ideal moulding conditions. There are also a number of requirements to be considered in designing and making the ideal mould. These include the accuracy and finish, productivity, physical strength, wear resistance, operation safety, maintenance, installation and cost of the mould.
A Current Awareness service from Rapra may be just what you need to update your knowledge with ease and accuracy without having to waste time, effort and money finding the information yourself.
If there are many people within your organisation who would benefit from this information then get in touch to talk to us about our multi-recipient bulletin. | | | | Format: Annual subscription, E-mail delivery every 2 weeks, Variable no. of records | | ISBN: | | |

NEW APPROACH TO INTEGRATED MOULD DESIGN.
Solent Composite Systems' SmartMould integrated design and manufacturing system for moulding of composites is described and is shown to ensure integration of engineers, designers, material suppliers and the manufacturer to deliver high-quality, cost-effective composite components that are competitive. The manufacture of wind turbine blades using the technique is discussed and future prospects for the SmartMould process are considered.

THE EFFECT OF INJECTION PROCESS PARAMETERS ON THE SHRINKAGE AND WARPAGE OF PC/ABS'S PART.
Bin-Bin Dong; Chang-Yu Shen; Chun-Tai Liu (Zhengzhou,University)
Chinese
The effects of various parameters, including injection rate, melt temperature, pressure, packing time and gate size on the shrinkage and warpage of an injection moulded washer cover were investigated using design of experiments and computer aided engineering. The effect of shear on shrinkage was examined and optimum conditions for minimising shrinkage and warpage of the part determined. 11 refs.

SIMULTANEOUS OPTIMIZATION OF MOLD DESIGN AND PROCESSING CONDITIONS IN INJECTION MOLDING.
Castro C E; Rios M C; Lilly B; Castro J M (Ohio,State University; Nuevo Leon,Universidad Autonoma)
A report is presented on the simultaneous optimisation of mould design and processing conditions in injection moulding using computer aided engineering, artificial neural networks and data envelopment analysis. Efficient solutions are determined using a number of case studies and efficient robust solutions are sought. 9 refs.

FINDING A FIT WITH RAPID INJECTION MOLDING.
Cleveland B (Protomold Co.Inc.)
The use of rapid injection moulding for prototyping and low-volume production of parts for the medical and other industries is discussed. The basics of the rapid injection moulding process are described and limitations of the process are indicated. Factors to be taken into account when designing within the limits of the process are outlined and the need to evaluate available rapid mould-making technologies is emphasised.

MOLD DESIGN OPTIMIZATION FOR SECURITY CAPS USED IN THE PHARMACEUTICAL INDUSTRY.
Candal M V; Morales R A; Grimaud R (Caracas,Universidad)
The design and evaluation of an injection mould for the internal and external parts of security caps for pharmaceutical bottles using computer-aided design and computer-aided engineering software is described. Two different mould designs were compared and several cooling systems were evaluated by computer simulation. The results are discussed in terms of optimal processing conditions. 23 refs.
