Nowadays in automotive design, lighting functions not only to provide illumination and signaling for the driver: it also more often than not contributes to the unique design of a vehicle. Edgelight ...

Injection molding innovator X2F and materials supplier Covestro have combined forces to develop a thermally conductive automotive heat-sink with in-mold electronics using X2F’s controlled-viscosity ...

Injection molder Autronic Plastics Inc. has acquired LaMar Lighting in Farmingdale, N.Y., and moved LaMar's operation to API's base in Central Islip, N.Y., where it has a 100,000-square-foot ...

Producing parts with injection molding requires the creation of a mold of the part that will be produced. Each mold will be custom and some could be quite complex. A mold basically consists of a ...

Injection molding is cool. Well hot actually, but dad jokes aside it’s a pretty simple process in theory, but requires specific tooling and equipment, plus real experience, to create OE level parts ...

Autodesk has sponsored this post. Transient cooling of injection molds is complex. Advanced simulation makes it possible to resolve complex systems like this. (Image courtesy of Autodesk.) Injection ...

3D printing is all well and good for prototyping, and it can even produce useful parts. If you want real strenght in plastics, though, or to produce a LOT of parts, you probably want to step up to ...

Many people don’t realize that an injection molding machine is something they can build themselves, even without a machine shop or other extensive setup. The hosts of the Canadian YouTube channel ...
