According to GLOBAL TRADE ALTAS statistics, the boom of the rubber and plastics industry has rebounded due to the growth of the aerospace and automotive industries and the market demand for consumer goods. With the economic growth of Asian countries, the Asia-Pacific region has become the largest and fastest-growing region in the world's plastic and rubber industry. About 40% of plastic and rubber machinery is manufactured in Asia. The fourth industrial revolution combines machinery and information and communication, both of which are the most advantageous industries in Taiwan. Taiwan's plastic and rubber machinery industry combines these two advantages and applies smart manufacturing new business models to strengthen competitive advantages and seek to create niche points. New business opportunities have brought Taiwan's plastics and rubber machinery industry to a new peak.
What is a screw extruder? A screw extruder is a type of pump that is used in a plastic injection machine to pump molten plastic. It is one of the most common types of machinery used in the modified plastics and polymer processing industry. Extruders can be divided into single-screw extruders and twin-screw extruders, each with their own processing advantages and disadvantages.
Thermoforming or vacuum forming is a common method of processing plastic materials, and vacuum formed products are ubiquitous in daily life. The process involves heating a plastic sheet until soft and then placing it over a mold. A vacuum then draws the soft sheet into the mold. The sheet is allowed to cool and is then removed from the mold.
Plastic products are very common in our daily lives. Cases for computers, mobile phones and electronics, daily household items, storage containers, automobile panels, furniture etc. are nearly all made of plastic. The method most often used to produce these products is a process called plastic injection. This article will address some of the key points that need to be taken into consideration during the plastic injection molding process, and what processes are required for injection molding.
Hot runner technology is an advanced technology being applied to the runner systems of plastic injection molds. Hot runner process are still in the development stage of plastic injection molding technology.
Egypt is a major industrial country in North Africa, with a population of more than 100 million in 2020, an economic growth rate of 5.6% in 2019, a gross domestic product of US$280 billion, an average per capita national income of US$2,795, and an industrial growth rate of 1.8%.
Turkey is the 17th largest economy in the world and the 6th largest economy in Europe due to its geographical advantage. Turkey's domestic demand market is huge, and its future development potential has attracted much attention.
Plastic products can be seen everywhere in daily life, and different plastic products are made through different processing techniques. Plastics manufacturing is the process of making plastic into semi-products or products with practical value. Plastics manufacturing usually includes primary processing and secondary processing of plastics.
Plastic granulation technology is mainly used in plastic product manufacturing and resource recycling to make various plastic products or plastic raw materials, and has both environmental and economic benefits.
Plastic molding processing technology has been widely used in the production of many high-tech products, such as auto parts, 3C electronic products, connectors, displays, mobile phones, plastic optical lenses, biomedical application products, and general daily necessities, etc. With the trend of diversification of product usage and variability in functional requirements, plastic molding processing technology is booming day by day.
Plastics waste is hurting the chemical industry as well as the environment. By taking the lead on recycling, chemical players could add a new dimension to the industry and help solve the problem.
