DUE to its complete automatability, high reproduction accuracy and minimal need for downstream finishing of molded parts, injection molding ranks among the most important manufacturing processes in plastics processing, and serves as the basis for many specialized variants of this technology. But particularly strong directional orientation must normally be expected in injection-molded parts, since in this process shaping is accompanied by major deformation, high deformation speeds and high-speed cooling; consequently, some of the molecules solidify with an orientation in the direction of the deformation. This leads to significant anisotropy in the attributes of injection-molded parts .
