The tooling digitalization during the whole supply chain is vital for maximizing productivity, improving operational efficiency, and minimizing downtime. But how and with what tools?

Fatigue failure prediction methods of elastomers help estimate product service life and play a critical role in preventing catastrophic failures.

Reverse engineering (RE) in plastics processing has become an essential method for product reproduction, improvement, and optimization. It involves a thorough understanding of the design, manufacturing, assembly, and maintenance stages.

Sustainable polymer-based anticorrosive coatings offer technical, economic, and environmental advantages. Continuous advancements in this technology aim to overcome current challenges.

Molds must be engineered with precision to achieve optimal results, making mold life a key consideration. Several factors influence injection mold life, including material choice, operating conditions, design, and maintenance.

A digital twin includes real-time data and continuous feedback from the physical world. Simulation is typically a static or hypothetical model used for scenario-based analysis.

Researchers have developed Covalent Adaptable Networks (CANs) for Carbon Nanotube reinforcement. These networks feature chemically reversible crosslinks, making them an option for producing recyclable thermosets.

Plastics Injection molding accounts for nearly 50% of all plastic processing methods. Compared to other processes like blow molding or thermoforming, it is preferred for its ability to produce complex parts with high repeatability and minimal waste.

Plastics training is a significant component of employee development. PE will present the main sources around the world to keep trained your team based on innovation and research for the industry.

Fluoropolymers enhance various applications across multiple industries, including aerospace, automotive, electronics, packaging, and medical.

Why an assessment of the next gen of injection molding is needed? The global injection molding market was valued at USD 265.1 billion in 2020 and is expected to expand at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.6% from 2021 to 2028.

Researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) developed a new technique called “nano stitching,” which significantly enhances composite materials’ mechanical properties.
