The Basics of Resin Selection
by Mike Kmetz, IDES
Injection molders are being asked by their customers to become more involved in resin selection. Unfortunately, many processors don’t have this expertise in-house, especially for demanding engineering applications. Getting the resin right is a cornerstone for successful processing and for the overall success of the plastic part. Today, there are many resources to assist molders with this task; tomorrow, there will be even more.
You know there are tools out there to help you pick the right material for your part, but are you up to speed on the terms and technology needed to use them?
