How to Make Injection Molds

Georg Menges, Walter Michaeli, Paul Mohren, 2001, 162 pages
ISBN: 
1569902828, 9781569902820
$152.00
Description:
Economic success in the plastics processing industry depends on the quality, precision, and reliability of its most common tool: the injection mold. Consequently, misjudgments in design and mistakes in the manufacturing of molds can result in grave consequences.

Now in its third edition, this classic, comprehensive handbook for the design and manufacture of injection molds covers all aspects of how to successfully make injection molds from both practical and theoretical points of view. It serves as an indispensable reference tool for everyone engaged in mold making.

Injection Mold Design Engineering

David O. Kazmer, 2007, 430 pages
ISBN:

Mold Finishing Polishing Manual

SPE, 1999, 76 pages, Finishing plaque (formerly SPI/SPE finishing guide) included
$47.00
Description:
The purpose of this manual is to provide the novice mold polisher with some sound, proven principles in mold finishing. Finishing skills are usually a part of the apprentice moldmaker's training. This manual will complement instructions that the beginner receives, and thus reduce the amount of time required to achieve a reasonable mastery of the craft. Contents include: Types of Molds for Plastics, Materials Used in Moldmaking, Finishing Equipment and Materials, Mold Finish Requirements, Mold Finishing Procedures, Diamond Polishing.

Plastic Injection Molding-Material Selection & Product Design Fundamentals

ISBN: 
0872634884
$84.00
Description:
This book is a must read for practitioners in the plastics industry, including upper management, who strive to achieve a sound working knowledge of the fundamentals. The second book in the injection molding series, this one-of-a-kind resource addresses the basics and the fine points of plastics materials and product design phases of the thermoplastic injection molding process. Like the first, it is intentionally written in plain, everyday language. The author breaks complex technical matter into clear, sequential narrative bites to guide you through to full comprehension on the first read.

Qualifications, Startups and Tryouts of Injection Molds 3rd Edition

W. J. Tobin, 2008, 90 pages, CD and Spreadsheets included
ISBN: 
0936994207
$32.00
Description:
The truth is you don’t need fancy gizmos to do scientific molding. All you need is a machine where you can read the settings, an accurate weigh scale, and a computer. A universal setup guide only needs a little homework on your part to read each machine’s manual and the ability to read the settings. If you had a few days and an engineering textbook you could actually write these spreadsheets yourself! It is NOT MAGIC. This book uses a practical, down to earth, easy to use approach to bringing a mold on-line and producing consistently good parts.

Rapid Prototyping

Andreas Gebhardt, 2003, 379 pages
Originally $89.00
ISBN: 
156990281X, 9781569902813
$70.00
Description:
Encourages engineers to incorporate rapid prototyping in their daily routine. It illustrates the benefits that come with the use of models at any stage of the product development process and defines the different types of models. It gives comprehensive coverage on the fundamentals of rapid prototyping and the special capabilities. Demonstrating how RPT can be an effective means for evaluating design before costly commitments are made makes Rapid Prototyping an invaluable resource. This book presents rapid prototyping and its principles in a thorough way that enhances the learning experience.
