(Nanowerk News) Researchers in Ireland have developed a new technology using materials called bulk metallic glasses to produce high-precision molds for making tiny plastic components. The components, ...

Precision molded thermoplastic parts are used in everything from catheters and IVD cartridges to drug-delivery systems. In fact, the vast majority of medical devices include precision molded ...

The Metal Injection Molding (MIM) process is a game changer in manufacturing. It combines the design flexibility of Plastic Injection Molding with the strength and integrity of wrought metals, ...

Self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) of functionalized thiols on gold surfaces are very useful as templates for micro- and nano-scale assembly of polymers and biomaterials from solution. Because of the ...

Machine and process troubleshooting are the most important factors in controlling process and reducing defects. Poorly performing presses lead to process variance and uncontrollable scrap events, and ...

Since the technology became broadly available in 2017, a growing number of injection molders have been learning how the iMFLUX low-pressure process can reduce both cycle times and reject rates, ...
