AZoM talks to DeWayne Howell and Jason Gabriel (Technical Engineering TenCate/CCS Composites), about the process of compression molding for composites and what the benefits and applications of this ...

The advantages of the injection/compression molding process for thermoset composite materials will be addressed as follows: 1) Thermoset composite history and transition of compression molding to ...

As automotive engineers continue to search for ways to make lighter, less-costly components, the compression molding of composites has taken center stage in composites-for-metal substitution. Unlike ...

Tokyo — Nissan Motor Co. Ltd. has long reserved costly carbon-fiber-reinforced components to such applications as the hood and roof of its low-volume, high-performance GT-R sports car. But thanks to a ...

System-in-Package (SiP) technology has been used for a wide range of electronic devices, but the warpage behavior of the package can be difficult to control and predict due to complex manufacturing ...

Injection overmolding of unidirectional fibers and preforms is an attractive process for many good reasons. It’s fast, consistent and repeatable, and it can be performed with a machine that is ...

Shindo noncrimp fabrics (NCFs) have been used for various products in the aerospace, marine, civil construction, and repair and reinforcement fields. There are four features that characterize this new ...

Until now, simulative mold and process design were limited mainly to modern injection molding technology. SIGMASOFT® has already been utilized successfully by leading elastomers processors, and their ...

Compression molding is the process we use at TenCate/CCS Composites. We can mold parts that are very small or over 5 feet (1.5 meters) in length, with thicknesses as thin as 0.050 inches and well over ...
