Molding White Papers, Application Notes, & Case Studies

  1. Material Behavior At The Micro Scale: The Core Of Medical Device Innovation 7/6/2023

    Material behavior on the micro level is very different than what traditional (macro-level) plastics engineering has taught us. In this white paper, learn about polymer mechanics and how it might impact material selection for your micro medical device.

  2. Reading Between The Lines: Comparing “Apples To Apples” With Your Medical Device Injection Molding RFQ’s 5/8/2023

    There are many different ways for a supplier to answer an RFQ. The lowest price may not always be the most complete analysis of the overall process. A higher-than-expected price, however, may actually be the most comprehensive and accurate quote for a full range of services.

  3. Micro Medical Manufacturing Tolerances 10/7/2019

    Precise miniature plastic parts are the result of exact tooling processes such as micro tooling and micro injection molding. By understanding the tolerances of these tooling processes, it’s possible to achieve repeatability and part accuracy for even the most advanced micro medical device. 

  4. Medtech Startup Gets To Market Faster With On-Demand Molding 6/20/2018

    Invoy Technologies, a Medtech startup, plans to release a novel handheld breath analyzer that instantly measures fat burning with a data-driven coaching app to help users reach their goals.

  5. Thermoplastic Material Selection For Injection Molding 6/28/2017

    This white paper is aimed at an engineer who plans to quantitatively analyze a part, determine loads, stresses, strains, and environments and make an optimal material decision based on the analysis.

  6. Designing For Moldability: Volume 1 - A Rapid Injection Molding Reference Guide For Product Designers And Engineers 5/1/2017

    This quick-reference user guide, for engineers and designers, talks about the guidelines and limitations for rapid injection molding. Learn how to get the best possible results for your real plastic molded parts.

  7. Micro Molding With Bioabsorbables: Not Your Average Thermoplastics 2/28/2017

    This paper covers the benefits of micro molding with bioabsorbables, as well as information on different material types and considerations for bioabsorbable success.

  8. Rapid Injection Molding Helps Med Device Company Bring Vision to Blind 11/30/2016

    Helping the blind to "see" through the use of the tongue may be an outlandish idea, but it is now a real science, thanks to the BrainPort V 100. This article discusses the new device, created by a med device company, which is designed to enable users to process visual images with tongue stimulation.

  9. Advantages Of Liquid Silicone Rubber for Medtech Injection Molding 12/16/2015

    This white paper discusses the different properties and grades of LSR, its injection molding benefits, and the advantages in choosing it for your projects.
