Only naturally balanced runner systems (“H” pattern) are recommended.
3.
Each 90° bend in the system should step down in size.
4.
Place cold slug wells at every 90° bend in the runner system.

Static charges that build up on the surface of plastic
products can attract dust and dirt, cause sheet and
film to cling, and cause stacked products to stick
together.
As polymer material moves
through shear-inducing production equipment,
positive or negative static charges can build up on
the surface.
They are compatible with a variety of resin systems,
as well as many processes including extrusion,
injection molding, blow molding, and calendering.

AUTOMOTIVE SOLUTIONS
EMI/RFI SHIELDING & STATIC
DISSIPATIVE FORMULATIONS
FOR ADVANCED DRIVER
ASSISTANCE SYSTEMS
Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS), comprised of sensitive electronics such as sensors, cameras
and electronic control units (ECUs), require high-performance materials to protect them from static buildup,
EMI/RFI interference and other issues.
High performance without secondary
operations – When using Stat-Tech material,
painting and vacuum metallization are not
necessary in order to achieve the performance you
need from your ADAS systems, therefore cutting
down on the processing times and costs associated
with using aluminum.
Lightweighting – Through the combination of thin
wall housing construction and part consolidation,
using Stat-Tech material in sensors, cameras and
ECUs enables overall system weight reduction.

Additional draft may be required for
grained/textured surfaces
Gates
• All types of gates can be used such as pin, fan, tunnel, tab and edge gates.
This may result in excessive burning on the surface of the part.
Runners
• Full-round or modified trapezoid runners are the best design and provide the
least surface to cross section ratio.

Low-activity amputees—level K2
as defined by the Medicare Functional Classification Level
(MFCL) rating system—have the ability to traverse low-
level environmental barriers such as curbs and stairs.
Through their close work with amputees from all
five activity levels of the MFCL system, the team at
WillowWood recognized that prosthetic options were
limited for K2 amputees who are able to handle more
uneven surfaces.
A unidirectional fiberglass
laminate produced with a surfacing veil for added
durability provided the ideal combination of flexibility
and multiaxial stability.

If poor
ventilation is employed or appropriate personal protective equipment is not worn, dust
that is formed during handling could be inhaled and effect the respiratory system.
Environment
When used in an industrial setting, ATO is typically handled using engineered systems
designed to control releases from the facility.
ATO that is released will collect on
hard surfaces and could potentially mix with soil or other porous surfaces.

This technique is commonly used overseas to achieve the smooth surface many brands call for.
Normal transfer papers can also be used to create various surface effects.
All of these materials will leave their reverse impressions on the surface.
