Molding technology has played a crucial role in the chemical, polymer and pharmaceutical industries. It is used extensively in the polymer industry to mass produce complex structured parts, but is also gaining importance in other emerging fields such as electronic and power & energy industries, where the number of demanding components is increasing significantly. In this newsletter, Baverstam provides a short review of molding technologies, covering both traditional molding technologies such as polymer based injection molding as well as new and specialized molding technologies. It further provides a selection of articles related to molding and pre-molding technologies and reports recent developments in composite and other materials developed for various molding applications.
