How Lateral Thinking Evolves an Organization’s Mindset
Share: Key Takeaways Cooling and hold time account for 50–75% of total cycle time, making cooling optimization the highest-impact lever in injection moulding productivity. Conventional straight-drilled channels often fail to cool complex geometries evenly, leading to hotspots, higher cycle times, and poor part quality. Conformal cooling channels follow the mould contours, positioning cooling closer to […]

Part 3 Interesting Insights About Let Down Ratio in Post-Consumer Resin
Key Takeaways Let Down Ratio (LDR) is the percentage of master-batch added to base resin to achieve the desired colour intensity, uniformity, and appearance in moulded plastic parts. PCR has a natural grey, non-uniform base colour that makes bright shades like white, yellow, or blue appear pale and unappealing, making darker colours like black, dark […]
