Abstract:Mold injection is an expensive manufacturing method; it involves several engineering-design hours and expensive alloys. Enabling the use of low-cost mold tooling can turn low-run productions economically and sustainably viable. There is a lowcost and more environmentally amicable alternative to injection molding for low-run productions based on epoxy resin molds. However, one drawback is the polymeric nature of the epoxy material, which possess low thermal conductivity, negatively affecting the injection proce… Show more
