It can be a challenge to paint these designs without overspray, drips and other imperfections. Rejections because of painting imperfections are eliminated, and what little scrap is left can be easily recovered and recycled back into the manufacturing process, saving time and money. That’s also the amount that you can save by switching to molded-in color components.

It was important that the new connector provide signal dampening within an established range as specified by the customer without exceeding the established cost targets.    Avoid over-engineering – The new connector must be designed to meet the targeted requirements accurately, without over engineering, thus avoiding the costs of higher-than-needed performance levels.    Meet targeted cost-performance requirements – The selected resin must offer significant savings over the current LCP/carbon fiber formulation through material and/or manufacturing savings, thus enabling penetration of the low-cost computer market with a competitive connector.

When should I consider using TPEs? If thermoplastic elastomers can do all this, you might be asking yourself, “Is there any reason I wouldn’t want to use TPEs?” Save and share the full guide as a PDF for future reference.

Without a consistently flat surface, the manufacturer encountered a variety of issues involving both the form and function of the part, leading to the high number of rejected parts. All told, these improvements contributed to more than $100,000 annually in savings to the manufacturer’s bottom line.

The impact can be even greater if the blow molder can measure compressor energy savings. Using process aids can expand the blow molder’s processing window, allowing the molder to increase blow speeds without sacrificing bottle quality. Typically, energy savings alone is sufficient to advance to the production blow molding stage.
