"Designing with Plastics" is an indispensable tool for every engineer and designer working with plastic materials. It will assist in the development of plastic parts that are not only functional and esthetically pleasing but also manufacturable while meeting ever increasing end-use requirements. The short but concise introduction into the specific properties of this material class focuses on the practical needs of the designer and lays the foundation for the following in-depth discussion of part design suitable for production and the intended end-use application. Numerous detailed examples

The book presents a well-rounded overview of the underlying theory and physics that control the various compression molding processes without loosing the practical flavor that governs the manuscript between its covers. The first chapter presents a historical background and the fundamentals covering the various compression molding processes and materials. Chapters 2 and 3 discuss the materials and processing fundamentals. Here, a unified approach is used pulling in the influence of processing on the properties of a finished product. Chapter 4 covers in depth design of compression molded parts.

The origins of this book not only include the Moldflow Design Principles, but also include Warpage Design Principles published by Moldflow, and C-Mold Design Guide. Collectively, these documents are based on years of experience in the research, theory and practice of injection molding. These documents are now combined into one book the Moldflow Design Guide,. This book is intended to help practicing engineers solve problems they encounter frequently in the design of parts and molds, as well as during production. It can also be used as a reference for training purposes at industrial and educati
