Designing the perfect mold is probably the most challengin task in plastics processing, especially in injection molding. It determines the quality, performance, and the profitability of a plastic part. Neither modern computer technology nor sophisticated CAE software can subsititute the experience of the practicing mold engineer. This is why the "GASTROW" is so special to plastics engineers: 130 mold designs are presented in this new and extensively revised edition of the great classic in mold making. Each of the case studies was actually built, tested, and run successfully in production.
The book is written by practitioners for practitioners, describing problem solving in the design and the manufacture of injection molds. The wealth of information includes hints, design details, and practical tips invaluable for everyone involved in this field.
"Top moldmakers will find a zillion new ideas to increase their capabilities and reduce costs."
