Plastic Processing Techniques for Medical Device OEMs
Plastic Processing technique is a very important aspect for medical device OEM’s.
In this webinar we covered six different types of plastic processing techniques which are the most used processing techniques across the globe.
- Injection Moulding Process
- Extrusion Process
- Blow Moulding Process
- Thermoforming Process
- Compression Moulding
- Rotational Moulding Process
Apart from the technique itself we also saw working concepts, different types, materials used for manufacturing and some real-world applications. This webinar gave you a clear idea about what kind of products are manufactured from which plastic processing techniques.
We also talked about the following key areas
While selecting the material for healthcare domain, details on important aspects like Biocompatibility, Cleanability and ROHS Compliance should also be covered.
How to develop concepts that are manufacturable, cost effective and meet your product requirements.
Importance of good product design and how it blends the understanding of customer needs, the enhancement of their experience regarding functional needs and the transformation of that idea into something tangible made of plastic.
With Plastic Flow Analysis, we can see how the product will be filled with molten plastic material under the mould. Based on this Plastic flow analysis how we suggest changes in product design and process parameters to optimize the product.
How to design product moulds and suggest the best gating system and position in components which gives maximum mouldability and at the same time is cost effective.
How to optimize the process right from compounding, pre-drying, material mixing techniques to its final processing. How to increase strength of the product, optimizing barrel temperature, reducing barrel residence time, improving surface gloss, increasing product stiffness or flexibility, optimizing cycle time etc.
