SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
"This book provides a vision and structure to finally synergize all the engineering disciplines that converge in the mold design process. The topics are presented in a top-down manner, beginning with introductory definitions and the >>big picture<< before proceeding to layout and detailed design of molds. The book provides very pragmatic analysis with worked examples that can be readily adapted to >>real world<< mold design-applications. It should help students and practitioners to understand the inner workings of injection molds and encourage them to think >>outside the box<< in developing innovative and highly functional mold designs."--BOOK JACKET.
