OPTIMIZATION OF RELEASE COATING SYSTEMS

摘要

Mold release agents, also called release coatings or mold lubricants frequently hold the key to the success of a molding operation. Often, however, the choice of the type of release coating is an afterthought. As many know, the wrong release agent can lead to increased downtime, increased reject rate and overall lower efficiency. Early matching of the proper release coating system with your particular material and molding process will reduce start-up problems and contribute to a more trouble-free process. No release coating system will overcome mechanical deficiencies or poor compound formulation, but the right mold release coating can be the key to successful part production.
