5G Networks
Enable lower latency, greater
flexibility & efficiency
Installation of these networks are
in the very early stages
Installation will start in urban
hubs and will continue to expand
into suburban and rural areas
By 2025, only 14% of the world
will have 5G connections
Growth is expected over multi-
year period
5G technology will be a leading growth driver in fiber optic cable for several years

VALUE SOLUTION
Improve safety and reduce costs with
Gravi-Tech formulations
When Gravi-Tech polymer metal composites are
substituted for lead, manufacturers can avoid
the regulatory, disposal and employee exposure
challenges associated with lead.
If
the material is shear-sensitive, consult the
material data sheet or processing guide for
instructions to set recovery time
• The cooling time should only be 1–2 seconds
longer than the screw recovery time, unless
dictated by dimensional stability or part
thickness
Minimize Clamp Pressure
This step is done to reduce the amount of energy
used by the machine
Shot Size = 1.00 + .10 =
1.10, Transfer Position = .50 + .10 = .60
Set Safeties
This step is to ensure the machine will alarm
and alert nearby employees if the machine
malfunctions, or if a part gets stuck
