The machine has pressure sensors, but if these are not activated, or malfunction, the molding machine, also known as a "press" will close and crush anything that is not supposed to be there.

The brainstorming session continues, and the team now takes a scientific perspective towards the entire scenario. The individual scout movement and its effect on the entire line during the hike struck Alex with the real nature of the concepts of 'dependent events' and the 'statistical fluctuations'.

Prior to this late stage in production, however, 3D printing is much more affordable and flexible for products in the early stages of design. However, models with large undercuts cannot be replicated with injection molding.

This type of plastic molding can be used with any thermoplastic that can be injection molded. We can build molds from interchangeable inserts to fully automated tooling to meet your needs. Material considerations, part geometry considerations, tooling considerations, and processing considerations all play a part.
