In addition to its considerably higher cost-effectiveness, the process has the great advantage that as well as the high pressing forces that can be achieved, temperatures above 450° can also be ...

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 ...

After previously trying out low-tech compression molding with a toaster oven and 3D printed molds, [future things] is back with a video that seeks to explore some of the questions raised after the ...

Equipment OEM Dieffenbacher GmbH last year introduced a new line of compression presses that are lighter, feature a more open design and have a smaller base area and lower above-ground height. These ...

This article examines the various uses of presses in research and manufacturing, while exploring some of the different industries in which they are used. Omnipresent in both industry manufacturing and ...

System-in-Package (SiP) technology has been used for a wide range of electronic devices, but the warpage behavior of the package can be difficult to control and predict due to complex manufacturing ...

Airbus’ Illescas facility, featuring highly automated composites processes for the A350 lower wing cover and one-piece Section 19 fuselage barrels, works toward production ramp-ups and next-generation ...

Virtual testing identifies defects in thermoset components before expensive mold fabrication begins, reducing material waste.
