Description:
Offering detailed analysis from a practical, on-the-job perspective, this highly pragmatic "how-to" book reports on the most effective means of producing plastics by the extrusion blow molding process-outlining proven methods from planning and manufacturing to product testing. Providing a basic history of blow molding and from its beginnings in the 1930s to the development of versatile plastics to the implementation of microprocessors, this book covers the specific equipment and machinery needed for efficient blow molding production. It evaluates quality factors of finished products such as strength-to-weight ratio, impact and melt properties, flex modulus (stiffness), creep and recoil, yield stress, and environmental stress cracking resistance (ESCR).
Contents Include:
History of Blow Molding; Selecting the Proper Equipment for Industrial/Technical Blow Molding; Start-Up and Initial; Selecting a Blow Molding Material; Extrusion Blow Mold Design; Auxiliary Equipment; The Use of Regrind; Deflashing, Trimming, and Reaming; Testing of Extrusion Blow Molding; Automation, Simplicity, and Profit for Blow Molding; Troubleshooting Guide for Common Blow Molding Problems.
