Are you struggling with the reduced strength of plastics due to weight reduction and other factors?

"Support for maximizing strength" Have you ever encountered strengths that are far below the strength data in the material catalog in plastic injection molding?

I believe you have experienced a significant decrease in strength that falls far below the strength data listed in the material catalog for plastic injection molding. It is often the case that the strength of plastic molded products cannot be achieved as indicated in the catalog. This decrease in values is particularly pronounced in reinforced resins with fibrous additives, and it becomes a major issue due to the nature of the reinforced resin. For example, when a decrease in strength occurs, the typical countermeasure is to increase the thickness, but it is important to understand that this adjustment may lead to significant problems. In cases where high strength requirements are necessary, it is essential to be involved from the product design stage, identifying areas of strength reduction and considering appropriate countermeasures. The aging degradation of the resin must also be taken into account. Our company has the expertise to carry out these processes. We would be grateful if companies considering lightweighting or resin substitution for metal parts, or those struggling with insufficient strength and contemplating abandoning development, could contact us.
