  • Plastics Consultancy Network - Profile and sheet extrusion
    line begins with the hopper which holds the plastic material (in either powder or granule form). The hopper continuously feeds the material to a heated barrel which contains a rotating screw. This screw transports the polymer to the die head and simultaneously the material is heated, mixed
  • Fiberglass - Types, Properties, and Applications Across Industries
    A fiberglass is a form of fiber-reinforced plastic where glass fiber is the reinforced plastic. This is the reason perhaps why fiberglass is also known as glass reinforced plastic or glass fiber reinforced plastic. The glass fiber is usually flattened into a sheet, randomly arranged or woven
  • Heat Sealing Tapes Improve Manufacturing Efficiency
    The value of a high-quality heat sealing tape is an important element in heat sealing machine applications. These machines apply high temperatures to plastic sheets or films to form air- or water-tight bags or other packages for food, medical supplies, and other consumer or industrial goods
  • Smart Computing Article - GSM to Gyricon
    Gyricon, the reusable electronic paper developed by Xerox, is nearly thin as a sheet of plastic laminate. First developed in the early 1970s, Gyricon (a Greek term meaning rotating image) is a reusable form of e-paper (electronic paper) designed at Xerox's famed PARC (Palo Alto Research Center
  • Magnetic Stripe
    ferrite. These materials are mixed with a resin to form a uniform slurry which is then coated onto a substrate. In the case of a credit card or similar application the slurry is usually coated onto a wide plastic sheet and dried. The coating is very thin and the plastic allows the coating to be handled
  • Gloss Standards and Measurement
    Gloss is defined as the degree to which a surface exhibits specular reflectance. This means that it is a measure of the image forming ability of a surface. In the case of glass or plastic sheets used for display enhancement, gloss is of interest because surface treatments known as anti-glare
  • Feature Article - Wohlers Report 2000 Executive Summary - 12/00
    to form physical objects. Layer-by-layer, RP machines fabricate plastic, wood, ceramic and metal parts using thin, horizontal cross sections of the computer model. Some argue that free-form fabrication (FFF) more accurately describes this class of technology, particularly as its applications expand beyond
