Automotive plastic components aren’t limited to sleek dashboards, seats, floor mats, and other automotive plastic design details that attract buyers. These features may provide a degree of protection, but a vehicle’s overall safety and performance are largely dictated by often unseen under-the-hood plastic car parts.
As Hurricane Ida unleashed its Category 4 fury on the state of Louisiana, plastics industry professionals kept a wary eye on the storm’s path. The repercussions of Hurricane Laura and Winter Storm Uriupended the resins market, which is still struggling. As the fifth strongest hurricane to ever make landfall in the continental United States1, Ida could have easily wiped out any progress made toward market restoration.
But, for the most part, Ida spared the plastics industry from further devastation. The hurricane veered away from the hub of resin production facilities in western Louisiana and eastern Texas, some of which were just coming back online.
Consumer applications are diverse. Simply having products on the market isn't enough to build a customer base or keep pace with the competition.
了解最新的注塑工业趋势和与定制注塑模具的合作,将它们应用于创造高度差异化的产品,更容易转化为持续成功。它还让您更好地控制质量,成本和上市时间。
Injection molding industry trends suggest that a number of factors influence applications within theconsumer market, such as:
From excessive energy consumption and scrap to general resin use, the injection molding process has historically raised some ecological concerns. The alarm is neither surprising nor unique to injection molders or the industries they serve.
然而,作为一些专家项目,地球可能仅仅是远离环境崩溃的几十年1,有重要的选择。
The resin shortage has injection molders and the larger plastics industry struggling to find balance. The late-February storm that blew into Texas and shut down 80% of U.S. resin production was the catalyst, but only one contributing factor.1
Industry authorities point to several reasons why resin supply and resin cost continue to fluctuate and how the ripple effect impacts suppliers and injection molders. A snapshot of current pricing illustrates the topsy-turvy landscape:
OEMs across many industries can attest to the benefits of plastic injection molding. It’s ideal for consistent, affordable production ofa wide range of high-quality complex plastic partsthat can withstand about any environment.
这是足以在去解决方案列表中排名注射成型的原因,但还有更多。为了更好地了解制造商使用该过程的方式以及为何,让我们来看看前14位的个人优点塑料注塑成型的好处(以特定的顺序列出):
Confusion about which plastics align with a particular application can cause uncertainty about if and when to use定制注塑成型。因此,厂商可能不会利用塑料如何效益产品设计。
“热塑性”和“热固性”声音类似,塑料类别都提供适合于各种市场复杂应用的选择。但是,它是类别中材料的属性和处理行为,最终揭示了注塑项目的最佳选择。
On September 28, 2020, the world reached the sad and sobering milestone of 1 million deaths caused by COVID-19. In the three ensuing months, approximately 625,000 more deaths were added to the tally, and the nearly 73 million active cases around the global are added to daily — and at astounding rates.1
The pandemic has populations scared and experts stymied as to how to manage and eventually eradicate the virus. For obvious reasons the medical and healthcare industries are leading the charge in terms of innovation, with antimicrobial resins and antimicrobial polymers playing major roles in effective solutions.
One of the main advantages of using注塑成型组分is versatility in the plastics available for specific, often complex, applications.
Addressing plastics needs early in the design process is ideal, as is partnering with an experienced custom injection molder with plastics-specific expertise. Working together ensures theplastics have the characteristics needed for the job, and that materials-based complications will not arise during design and molding.
