An award-winning group of highly experienced industrial designers, design engineers and prototyping technicians, Avient Design helps customers with all aspects of new product development, from concept to production. They also provided mold fill evaluations to evaluate the best injection parameter set up to process Therma-Tech in the respective mold. In using a thermoplastic, Elausa has been able to simplify manufacturing, now injection molding the complex heat sink in a single step, saving production time and increasing capacity.

DENSO M E C H A N I C A L H V A C D O O R F L A P • Processability was key as the part had to be injection compression molded due to its extremely thin nature • Copper resistance • Light weight • Anti-static • Low VOC • Worked in close collaboration with the customer to understand key design challenges and needs • Streamlined the development process through global presence, working locally in Europe while also running trials in Asia • Re-designed the part to provide a 90% weight reduction • Utilized material science expertise to create a custom formulation that improved resistance to copper deposits and enabled injection compression molding Customized Maxxam™ Formulation KEY REQUIREMENTS WHY AVIENT?

And, because they are formed by injection molding, long fiber reinforced thermoplastics can be easily customized to specific design requirements. You really have to understand the flexural modulus properties of long fiber composites when designing a propeller,” said Stahl. Injection molding with long fiber composites makes it easy to add feature details like our Hydrobites that would be difficult and expensive to produce in metal,” said Stahl.

Or, let us design your compound to meet your application’s specifications. Carbon/Graphite Fiber compounds can help you increase the mechanical strength of your injection molded parts with increased flex modulus. This formulation is created for high-pressure injection molding and is integrated directly into plastic materials.
