Micro injection molding has become a cornerstone for mass-producing microfluidic devices, yet demolding defects and mold wear remain persistent challenges. This study introduces a nickel mold ...

Splay is one of the more common — and sometimes baffling — defects in plastic injection molded products. It is a cosmetic defect typically appearing as an off-color streak, often silver in hue, along ...

New nickel-PTFE nanocomposite mold integrates lubricating particles directly into the matrix, achieving over 1,500 defect-free molding cycles without coatings for microfluidic devices. (Nanowerk News) ...

We’ve made hundreds of thousands of molds over the years! With that much experience, it goes with the territory that we’ve seen designs in which injection molding expertise is evident, and other ...

Injection molding is a critical manufacturing process, and has been so for a long time. It still has room to improve in several areas however, and “smart” injection molding equipment is gaining ...
