At the upcoming Fakuma show in Germany, Netstal will present what company officials are calling a world's first: injection-compression molding on stack molds. Fakuma is set for Oct. 13-17 in ...

Huntsman Advanced Materials (Basel, Switzerland) reports that it has developed a new epoxy resin system and a novel and cost-efficient compression molding concept. By combining a new fast-cure ...

About 50 billion plastic screw caps are made annually, and demand is rising all the time. In the game between the two rival production processes, neither holds all the aces. When it comes to choosing ...

As automotive engineers continue to search for ways to make lighter, less-costly components, the compression molding of composites has taken center stage in composites-for-metal substitution. Unlike ...

In this study, experiments and mold flow simulation results are presented for a void-free wafer level molded underfill (WLMUF) process with High-Density Fan-Out (HDFO) test vehicles using a ...

ROSEMONT, ILL. — While it may seem like injection molding is the only way to produce caps and closures, it turns out to be far from the truth. Compression molding is offering many companies another ...

System-in-Package (SiP) technology has been used for a wide range of electronic devices, but the warpage behavior of the package can be difficult to control and predict due to complex manufacturing ...

Compression molding involves forming of complex shaped components by molding of a charge of fiber reinforced prepreg bulk molding compound (BMC) under heat and high pressures. Unidirectional fiber ...

Virtual testing identifies defects in thermoset components before expensive mold fabrication begins, reducing material waste.
