Total Quality Process Control For Injection Molding

The all-encompassing guide to total quality process control for injection molding In the same simple, easy-to-understand language that marked the first edition, Total Quality Process Control for Injection Molding, Second Edition lays out a successful plan for producing superior plastic parts using high-quality controls. This updated edition is the first of its kind to zero in on every phase of the injection molding process, the most commonly used plastics manufacturing method, with an all-inclusive strategy for excellence. Beginning with sales and marketing, then moving forward to cover finance, purchasing, design, tooling, manufacturing, assembly, decorating, and shipping, the book thoroughly covers each stage to illustrate how elevated standards across individual departments relate to result in the creation of a top-notch product. This Second Edition: Details ways to improve plastic part design and quality Includes material and process control procedures to monitor quality through the entire manufacturing system Offers detailed information on machinery and equipment and the implementation of quality assurance methods—content that is lacking in similar books Provides problem-analysis techniques and troubleshooting procedures Includes updates that cover Six Sigma, ISO 9000, and TS 16949, which are all critical for quality control; computer-guided process control techniques; and lean manufacturing methods With proven ways to problem-solve, increase performance, and ensure customer satis-faction, this valuable guide offers the vital information today's managers need to plan and implement quality process control—and produce plastic parts that not only meet, but surpass expectations.

Full coverage of electronics, MEMS, and instrumentation andcontrol in mechanical engineering This second volume of Mechanical Engineers' Handbookcovers electronics, MEMS, and instrumentation and control, givingyou accessible and in-depth access to the topics you'll encounterin the discipline: computer-aided design, product design formanufacturing and assembly, design optimization, total qualitymanagement in mechanical system design, reliability in themechanical design process for sustainability, life-cycle design,design for remanufacturing processes, signal processing, dataacquisition and display systems, and much more. The book provides a quick guide to specialized areas you mayencounter in your work, giving you access to the basics of each andpointing you toward trusted resources for further reading, ifneeded. The accessible information inside offers discussions,examples, and analyses of the topics covered, rather than thestraight data, formulas, and calculations you'll find in otherhandbooks. Presents the most comprehensive coverage of the entirediscipline of Mechanical Engineering anywhere in four interrelatedbooks Offers the option of being purchased as a four-book set or assingle books Comes in a subscription format through the Wiley Online Libraryand in electronic and custom formats Engineers at all levels will find Mechanical Engineers'Handbook, Volume 2 an excellent resource they can turn to forthe basics of electronics, MEMS, and instrumentation andcontrol.

This book covers a variety of topics in manufacturing, with a special emphasis on product design, production planning, and implementation of both resources and production processes. The content is based on papers presented at the 6th International Scientific Technical Conference MANUFACTURING 2019, held in Poznan, Poland on May 19-22, 2019. The main focus is on showing best practices to use tools currently available in the enterprises to effectively improving industrial processes. Knowledge and production flow management, decision-making systems, production leveling, enterprise efficiency, as well as maintenance, modeling and simulation of production processes are just some of the topics discussed in this book, which offers a timely and practice-oriented reference guide for applied researchers, product engineers and product managers.

This book covers a wide range of applications and uses of simulation and modeling techniques in polymer injection molding, filling a noticeable gap in the literature of design, manufacturing, and the use of plastics injection molding. The authors help readers solve problems in the advanced control, simulation, monitoring, and optimization of injection molding processes. The book provides a tool for researchers and engineers to calculate the mold filling, optimization of processing control, and quality estimation before prototype molding.

This book presents the most important aspects of microcellular injection molding with applications for science and industry. The book includes: experimental rheology and pressure-volume-temperature (PVT) data for different gas materials at real injection molding conditions, new mathematical models, micrographs of rheological and thermodynamic phenomena, and the morphologies of microcellular foam made by injection molding. Further, the author proposes two stages of processing for microcellular injection molding, along with a methodology of systematic analysis for process optimization. This gives critical guidelines for quality and quantity analyses for processing and equipment design.
