Reinforced polymer materials are increasingly being used for structural applications because they allow manufacturers to replace traditional metal components with lighter-weight plastics.
However, transitioning from metal to plastic requires thorough technical analysis and preparation.
By factoring in static and dynamic data, the CAE simulations can identify where an injection molded plastic part may crack or break when exposed to real-world conditions such as physical loading force, sudden impact (crash simulation), or environmental factors like temperature and humidity.

Plastics processing periodically requires the complete removal of thermooxidized deposits from extruders and injection molding machines.
The effectiveness of Cesa Clean comes from the mechanical scrubbing action during purging between the material, plasticizing screw, and barrel.
Improve the flow characteristics of plastics during process and enhance both appearance and function
