Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rotational moulding (also called rotomoulding or rotocasting), is a low pressure, high temperature manufacturing process that offers a very competitive alternative to blow moulding, thermoforming and injection moulding for the manufacture of hollow plastic parts. It offers designers the chance to produce relatively stress-free articles, with uniform wall thickness and potentially complex shapes. This second edition of the very popular Practical Guide to Rotational Moulding describes the basic aspects of the process and the latest state-of-the-art developments in the industry. It is completely revised and is extensively illustrated.This guide will be of interest both to students of polymer processing and those who work with rotational moulding equipment.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rotational moulding has been available as a processing method for hollow plastic products for more than forty years, but for a long time it was regarded as a slow method limited to only a few plastics. Within the last ten to fifteen years there has been a dramatic change. Engineers and designers recognise the scope that rotational moulding offers for the production of relatively inexpensive, complex shapes with low levels of moulded-in stress. Materials suppliers are continually developing new grades of plastics as well as a wider selection of materials suited to the process. In addition, machinery suppliers are producing more sophisticated moulding equipment so that the moulder now has control over the process that was previously thought impossible. For its second edition, this book has been updated and expanded by the authors, who are leaders in their specialties within the field of rotational moulding. It continues to provide an introduction to the subject, as well as giving comprehensive coverage of the state-of-the-art. Two new chapters have been added. These cover the important areas of pin-hole removal from rotomoulded products and the rotational moulding of liquid polymers. In both cases the new material is the result of extensive research, and the results will be of considerable practical interest to moulders. The book will surely be welcomed again by moulders, materials and equipment suppliers, engineers and designers, and by lecturers looking for up-to-date information to include in their courses.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Practical Guide to Rotational Moulding, Third Edition, takes a step-by-step approach to rotomoulding, covering applications, moulds, machinery, materials, and design. This third edition has been thoroughly revised to include the latest advances, including novel materials and moulds, new products, and automation. The book begins with a chapter that introduces the rotational moulding process, analyses advantages and disadvantages, and explores common applications for rotomoulded products. The subsequent chapters provide detailed, methodical coverage of moulds, machinery, materials, and design for functionality, supported by clear illustrations and diagrams. Finally, challenges and future developments are discussed. This hands-on technical guide helps engineers, designers and practitioners to understand all aspects of rotomoulding, with the aim of producing performant end products and parts, with uniform wall thickness and potentially in complex shapes. The book is also of great interest to professionals across the plastics industry, as well as researchers and advanced students in plastics engineering, industrial design, mechanical engineering, chemical engineering, and materials science and engineering. Provides a strong fundamental understanding of all aspects of the rotational moulding process, from material to finished product Offers a highly practical combination of technical content and clear illustrations Covers the latest developments in rotomoulding, including novel materials and moulds, new products, and automated systems

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book details the factors involved in the injection moulding process, from material properties and selection to troubleshooting faults, and includes the equipment types currently in use and machine settings for different types of plastics. Material flow is a critical parameter in moulding and there are sections covering rheology and viscosity. High temperature is also discussed as it can lead to poor quality mouldings due to material degradation.The text is supported by 74 tables, many of which list key properties and processing parameters, and 233 figures; there are also many photographs of machinery and mouldings to illustrate key points. Troubleshooting flow charts are also included to indicate what should be changed to resolve common problems.Injection moulding in the Western World is becoming increasingly competitive as the manufacturing base for many plastic materials has moved to the East. Thus, Western manufacturers have moved into more technically difficult products and mouldings to provide enhanced added value and maintain market share. Technology is becoming more critical, together with innovation and quality control. There is a chapter on advanced processing in injection moulding covering multimaterial and assisted moulding technologies. This guide will help develop good technical skills and appropriate processing techniques for the range of plastics and products in the marketplace.Every injection moulder will find useful information in this text, in addition, this book will be of use to experts looking to fill gaps in their knowledge base as well as those new to the industry.ARBURG has been manufacturing injection moulding machines since 1954 and is one of the major global players. The company prides itself on the support offered to clients, which is exemplified in its training courses. This book is based on some of the training material and hence is based on years of experience.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Blow moulding is a manufacturing process used to form hollow plastic parts. It evolved from the ancient art of glass blowing and it is used to particular advantage with plastic materials. Celluloid was used first to blow mould baby rattles and novelties in the 1930s, linear low-density polyethylene was used in the 1940s for high production bottles and these days polyethylene terephthalate is used to make anything from soda bottles, to highly sophisticated multilayered containers and automotive fuel tanks in the last decade. When designing a product it is important to consider aspects such as a material's characteristics, the processing methods available, the assembly and finishing procedures, and the life cycle and expected performance of the product. This book presents the basics of blow moulding as well as the latest state-of-the-art and science of the industry. A key feature is the approach of discussing the 'basics' and then taking the reader through the entire process from design development through to final production.
