Cutting
Edge Molding Technology Seminars: Multishot
Molding and Magnesium Thixomolding – Wed. July 23
in Northglenn, CO
These
two free
technical seminars were created for people who design, buy, or work with
plastic or magnesium parts. Differentiate
your product with two new technologies: Multishot Injection Molding and
Injection Molding of Magnesium (Thixomolding).

High-performance components demand the best in manufacturing and material
performance as products get smaller, lighter, and more complex. Two
technologies that meet these design goals are multishot molding and
magnesium thixomolding.
Multishot Molding is a cost-effective method to produce plastic
parts with two or more colors and materials molded at the same time,
allowing you to increase product features and durability, enhance
aesthetics, reduce assembly time, and improve quality. Magnesium Thixomolding delivers thin wall, high stiffness,
lightweight, impact resistant components that are recyclable and
inherently shielded, with the design freedom of injection molding.
 

Marketing Technologies in conjunction with Rolco
and Parkway Products presented two technical seminars on multishot molding and magnesium thixomolding. The
seminars were free, suitable for both technical and non-technical people,
and contain no long-winded sales pitches. Here are the details:
