TY - ADVS TI - Plastic injection molds SN - MED0000881(Local) PY - 2004/// CY - [Dearborn, MI] PB - Society of Manufacturing Engineers KW - Injection molding of plastics KW - Manufacturing processes N2 - Molds determine the shape of the part, vent trapped air or gases during injection, they act as heat exchangers to solidify the molten plastic, and they eject the cooled parts. Using shop floor footage and detailed animations, this program highlights the primary injection mold components, and features segments on: injection mold types, the use of computer simulation to develop molds, mold prototyping techniques, mold maintenance & repair ER -
