This meant the molder was running longer cycle times to manage shot-to-shot irregularities and control dimensional stability. By using proprietary stabilizing agents, greater control of the dispersion of the active particles was achieved. This tier-1 molder could now achieve a uniform, statistical distribution of active CFA content with an added degree of control that is unrivaled in the industry today.
