‘Plastic Moulding’

An Engineeringtalk guide

Start with the news release Laser Design system checks injection mould tooling from Laser Design, which we summarised at the time by saying "Laser Design has announced that Schneider Electric recently installed a Laser Design Faro arm laser scanning system in its Cedar Rapids, Iowa facility. ". Several months prior to that, we featured the news release Designing joints and structural adhesives from ITW Plexus: "Sally Sinai, technical manager of ITW Plexus, considers the issues that should be considered before designing joints to be bonded together with structural adhesives.".
 
In November 2009, we covered the news from Micromech - take a look at CNC router reduces time to market which says: "A manufacturer of personal care products has saved money by switching to a low-cost computerised numerical control (CNC) router that can produce point of purchase displays internally.".
 
Take a look also at the news release from Instron, Instron introduces syringe test fixture, as well as Eaton launches Memshield 3 distribution boards from Eaton, and Variohm supplies position sensors in open housings from Variohm Eurosensor.
