Oct 12, 2021 · Metal injection molding (MIM) and metal additive manufacturing (metal AM) are two manufacturing techniques for making metal products and components. Based on the design, complexity, material, and production volume required for the part, each process has unique attributes that can make them the best choice for a project.
Jan 23, 2023 · Precise, thin walls are possible with micro injection molding. Two examples are a drug delivery straw (top) with 0.005-inch walls, and a cannula (bottom) with 0.0025-inch walls. Share on LinkedIn Share on Twitter Share on Facebook Share via email
Sep 18, 2013 · “Multiple metal parts can be replaced by one injection-molded part made of tough engineered plastic, eliminating the need for fasteners and assembly.” Plastic parts can actually be stronger than metal parts by using engineering-grade materials with proper structural design.
Apr 15, 2020 · A digital manufacturer can provide parts quickly, using 3D printing, CNC machining, sheet metal fabrication, and injection molding—in some cases in as little as one day. Once a design is finalized, a digital manufacturer can provide several different production options.
Sep 28, 2015 · RE: We've actually made injection mold tooling using metal additive manufacturing, because it gives an ability to put very complex cooling passages in the mold. In the process of injection molding these parts, you actually shoot the plastic in, and as soon as it gets cool enough that it skins over on the outside, you can eject it.
Apr 11, 2019 · The idea of designing a precision syringe is not a new one, said Girish Chitnis, a mechanical engineer and former postdoctoral fellow in Karp’s lab. But most teams that have tried to come up with a design have looked to bulky electronic components to help build a better injection targeting and delivery system.
Jun 23, 2020 · Metal pipes have dominated the pressure piping market since its inception. Over the last 10 years, however, innovations in material science have resulted in plastic pipes that can support high pressures and temperatures. Many companies have started to shift from metal to plastic for several high-pressure applications across a range of industries.
About the BPVC. Since its first issuance in 1914, ASME’s Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code (BPVC) has pioneered modern standards-development, maintaining a commitment to enhance public safety and technological advancement to meet the needs of a changing world.
Apr 22, 2020 · The mGrip is the latest iteration of one of the first commercial soft robotic grippers. Launched in 2015, the technology burst onto the scene in 2017 with a video that showed it picking and packaging Peeps, those popular—and easily crushable—pink and yellow marshmallow rabbits and ducks.
ASME B31.3 and B31.1 Practical Piping Design for Process and Power Applications. Apply the requirements of B31.1 to design, analysis, materials, fabrication, testing, and inspection for process and power piping systems.
