This webinar by Xcentric discusses the addition of undercuts and side action complexities to molding applications without sacrificing speed to market.

Overmolding is a great injection molded feature you can utilize in your design to capture color contrasts, add flexibility or eliminate assembly. Take advantage of this feature by learning how to design your part for overmolding. This webinar will cover how to set up your design for complex overmolding, material evaluation and best practices for proper adhesion, and feature specifications to consider for good overmolds.

Just because trade events and conferences are postponed and travel has been restricted, it doesn't mean that innovation has to slow down. Learn about the enabling power of micro injection molding from this Accumold Virtual Trade Show video.

The plastic injection molding industry and its manufacturing processes have evolved through the years. This webinar will help the viewer gain an understanding of the differences between the rapid and traditional manufacturing processes and how each directly influences and impacts the outcome of parts, costs and speed to market.

This video offers an overview about what overmolding is to the injection molding process.

This video demonstrates the use of side actions to solve undercuts in a part design in the injection molding process.

Engineers, designers, and product developers have found these two processes work well together in the product lifecycle, starting with the design-risk mitigation of 3D printing prototyping and then shifting to the manufacturing method of injection molding for higher volumes.

Understanding what is involved in injection-molding process validation and why it is important will help you choose a molding partner who can provide you with the confidence that your plastic parts will work well every time.

If you are planning a plastic injection molding project, and want to ensure excellence and product delivery - review these five considerations to make certain the result is exactly what you need.

When antimicrobial materials are used in plastic injection molding for medical device components, the reduction in infection is significant and measurable. By Rena Ivory, Crescent Industries, Inc.

Selecting the right injection molding partner is crucial for a successful project. The costs and timescales can be a significant part of a project budget. 

Injection molding is used extensively throughout the medical device industry. In the continued search for compliant, cost effective production methods, more and more companies are switching to fabrication techniques that offer economies of scale, such as injection molding, for both high and low volume production. 

Like many industries, the development path for medical devices differs with every product and its unique requirements. However, all medical devices have a series of FDA approval gates to clear and clinic trials to administer and analyze that often dictate a device’s path to market.

This paper includes information on the differences between micro, miniature, and small parts, the impacts material selection can make, maintaining manufacturability as sizes become smaller, and much more. Download it to better understand the micro molding process.
