The Mould Design Guide

The purpose of this section is to bring together many of the individual design features described in previous sections to view them as interactive, integrated whole designs.
A number of different designs are included in this section to provide a "reference base" of design ideas for future designs that should prove useful. All these designs are taken from actual working mould tools and are not simply theoretical models.
However, the designer should always check thoroughly that any design feature shown will solve the particular design requirements of any new design before incorporating them into their design.
Before using a design solution please ensure:
That you completely understand the example design.
That you give yourself enough time to actually understand what is going on in the design.
That you carefully consider how an existing design can be modified and incorporated into you own design.
That you run through the complete sequence of operation of your new design before releasing it for construction.
That complete design features are not simply copied and incorporated in to the new designs without seeing if the new integrated design could be simplified first.
