Why Use Plastics ?
8
Why use Plastics?
  • Light weight
  • Corrosion resistance
  • Colourability
  • Design flexibility
  • Low wear and low friction
  • Heat and electrical insulation
  • Manufacturing process flexibility
  • Re-cyclability
  • Cost

Material Selection flow Chart
List all essential requirements Specifications,
stresses, tolerances, chemicals, service
environment..
Desirable requirements Appearance, gloss would be
an advantage if
List and evaluate possible materials Use campus
or other materials databases, product
literature..
Profitability Analysis Wall thickness and
production time, multifunction, recycling
moulding conditions, of mould cavities,
predrying,..
Similar Components Experience in operation by
specialists or suppliers..
Classifiction of usable materials
Material Chosen For Use

When replacing metals, re-design is ALWAYS
Necessary

Automated tooling head
  • Continuous load 6 kg
  • Flexible grip
  • Endure direct heat from metal shavings..
  • Chemical resistance..

29
Application spec
  • Creep resistant
  • Fatigue resistant
  • Temp resistant
  • Corrosion resistant
  • Low part cost

30
Excisting part
  • Aluminium die casting, machined steel
  • Parts 160
  • Weight 15 kg
  • Manufacturing 4 HRS

31
Polymer solution
  • Multiple function Delrin mould
  • Components
  • 22 (versus 160)
  • Weight
  • 5 kg (versus 15 kg )
  • Manufacturing
  • 20 min (versus 4 HRS)

32
One of your customers is planning to produce a
pressure vessel in Acetal.
He says it is a new model and that they have
been using high viscous Acetal copolymer in
earlier models without having problem. The mould
has not yet been made. Lets challenge the choise
of material !
33
What information about the purifier do you need
to ask for?
?
34
Necessary Information
  • Part weight 1kg
  • Annual volume 100.000
  • Wall thickness 4mm
  • Mechanical requirements Stiffness,tensile
    strength,toughness
  • Chemical requirements Water(not drinking water)
  • Temperature requirements 10-60 C
  • Colour Natural
  • UV Indoor

Delrin is outstanding in mechanical properties!
?
What do that mean for our customers?
38
Product Profiler - Delrin vs Hostaform
When you discuss your project with an EP designer
you will learn that for a pressure vessel 16
higher tensile strength will give you about the
same stress level as a 16 thinner wall thickness
gives compared to Hostaform.
Conclusion 16 thinner wall thickness will give
lower productions cost!
?
Which tools can you use to prove this?
39
Camdo - Delrin vs Hostaform
  • Hostaform C2521 60 sec cycle time
  • Delrin 111P 49 sec cycle time

What do this mean in production cost?
40
Cost calculator - Delrin vs Hostaform
  • We assume that the price for Hostaform C2521 is
    0.20 less than Delrin 111P.

The Art of Material Selection
  • Understand your customers expectations!
  • Ask questions!
  • Consult the material experts!
  • Ask questions!
  • Often it is a compromise!
  • Ask questions!
  • You should arrive at a material choice that is ??
  • FIT for FUNCTION

43
and finally..
44
  • A Polymer for Every Application
