Mass customization of polylactic acid (PLA) parts via a hybrid manufacturing process
(MDPI, 2022-12-10)
Mass customization is the development of items tailored to specific customers, but
produced at low unit cost in high-volume. In this context, hybrid manufacturing (HM) combines
fused deposition modeling (FDM) and injection ...
Heat dissipation plays critical role for longevity of polymer-based 3D-printed inserts for plastics injection moulding.
(MDPI, 2022-10-08)
Injection moulding is a polymer processing method of choice for making plastic parts on
industrial scale, but its traditional mould is made from tooling steel with time-consuming and costly
production. Additive manufacturing ...
