Design of Plastic Moulds and Dies (Studies in Polymer Science)

By Laszlo Sors

This book is based on the authors' many years of experience in the practice and teaching of mould design. It contains the solutions to the most interesting problems they have encountered during their work. Books on this subject are not very numerous as designers are often reluctant to publish the results of their experiences. This work, however, offers a broad survey of constructional designs which have proved feasible in practice. Through studying these examples designers may find useful ideas for solving other problems. The reader will find with each design a short description of the mould or die and an explanatory list of its most important parts. The descriptions give the characteristics of the moulds while the lists make the designs more understandable. Before the detailed presentation of the designs for plastic moulds and extruders, there is a short theoretical summary which will help the designer select the correct dimensions to save material, energy and time. This part of the book will also help the designer make dimensioning programmes for computers and so perform complicated calculations quickly and accurately.
