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 ...

Compression molded “smoke pan” designed for conversion from 2-D to 3-D form. Hat angle and plateau optimized to prevent part from shrinking against mold surfaces. Angle changes optimized with radii to ...

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 ...

Predominantly, if the metal part used in compression molding is tension or compression loaded, a ratio of metal part thickness to its extensional modulus, multiplied by the Bulk Molding Compound (BMC) ...

The industry isn’t new to the so-called “out-of-autoclave” technologies as a necessary step towards high-volume manufacturing. Unlike other composites processing technologies, compression molding is ...

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 ...

MCM Composites, LLC has announced expanded insights into its implementation of thermoset molding technologies, highlighting how the company’s capabilities in both thermoset injection and compression ...

The new composites are designed as alternatives to thermoset sheet molding compounds (SMCs). Offering similar mechanical performance, they are much more ductile and, as thermoplastic systems, much ...

MCM Composites announces its capabilities in thermoset insert molding, providing customers with components designed for strength, durability, and precision applications. The company’s thermoset insert ...
