Publisher's Synopsis
This practice-oriented book describes the construction of a plastic mould from the ground up. Using as a basis a plastic part that was specially designed for this book, the necessary knowledge for practical implementation is developed through easily understandable text and many descriptive pictures and diagrams. Step by step, the plastic part is modified and extended. The technologies and implementations on the injection mould that are required to achieve this are described. Maintenance and repair, as well as the essential production techniques, are also discussed.
