Economic success in the plastics processing industry depends on the quality, precision, and reliability of its most common tool: the injection mold. Consequently, misjudgments in design and mistakes in the manufacturing of molds can result in grave consequences. This comprehensive handbook for the design and manufacture of injection molds covers all aspects of how to successfully make injection molds from a practical as well as from a theoretical point of view. It should serve as an indispensable reference work for everyone engaged in mold making. "...an example of how books should be written ... will be used by molders, mold designers and mold makers and will become a standard." (Polymer News) Contents: · Materials for Injection Molds · Mold Making Techniques · Estimating Mold Costs · The Injection Molding Process · Design of Runner Systems · Design of Gates · Venting of Molds · Heat Exchange System · Shrinkage · Mechanical Design · Shifting of Cores · Ejection · Alignment and Changing of Molds · Computer-Aided Mold Design and Construction · Maintenance of Injection Molds · Measuring in Injection Molds · Temperature Controllers · Mold Standards · Correction of Molding Defects · Special Processes - Special Molds

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

Given the importance of injection molding as a process as well as the simulation industry that supports it, there was a need for a book that deals solely with the modeling and simulation of injection molding. This book meets that need. The modeling and simulation details of filling, packing, residual stress, shrinkage, and warpage of amorphous, semi-crystalline, and fiber-filled materials are described. This book is essential for simulation software users, as well as for graduate students and researchers who are interested in enhancing simulation. And for the specialist, numerous appendices provide detailed information on the topics discussed in the chapters.

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.
