Overmolding integrates Polystrand tapes and multi- ply laminates into traditional thermoplastic molding processes, such as injection and compression molding, to create locally-reinforced, molded components. Read the Rome Snowboard Binding Case Study bit.ly/34PG0a6 Incorporating Polystrand CFRTP reinforcement in molded thermoplastic components combines the design flexibility and fast cycle times of traditional molding with the strength, stiffness, and lightweighting benefits that composites offer, all with the use of standard processing equipment. Mold to compress and cool into shape CFRTP is preheated and inserted into tool 3 Material heating, melting, and conveying Solid resin infeed 1 5 ON-ROAD TRANSPORTATION Underbody shields, underhood enclosures, interior components, storage OFF-ROAD VEHICLES Skid plates, doors, seat structures, exterior panels & moldings Traditionally, molding with short and long glass-filled polypropylene to gain flexural performance over unfilled polypropylene also results in a loss of impact resistance.

For these reasons, it is often required to over mold TPE immediately after molding the nylon substrate. NYLON MOLDING PROCESS Bonding is also affected by mold design and nylon molding conditions. INSERT MOLDING Insert molding data is reported in Table 3 and Figures 4 through 9.

Some common manufacturing options are pultrusion, resin injection, resin transfer molding (RTM) and filament winding. Design flexibility — Composites can be molded into complex shapes and textures at a relatively low cost. It is a continuous molding process where fibers are saturated with a liquid polymer, then carefully pulled through a heated die to form the parts.
