Microcellular Injection Molding – MuCell®

Through gas dissolution and nucleation, we improve the quality of your injection-molded plastic parts. This service also includes the following tasks:

Reducing Part Weight
Reducing Part Cost
Reducing Cycle Time
Reducing Pressure and Clamp Force
Reducing Stress Concentration
Reducing Warpage and Shrinkage
Improving Mechanical Properties

Optics – Optical Birefringence

This process identifies fringe order/patterns and flow-induced residual stress that reduce the optical properties of lenses or result in the failure of such products. It also includes the following tasks:

  • Identifying Thermal Residual Stress
  • Identifying Viscoelastic Behavior
  • Improving the Refractive Index
  • Improving Clarity
  • Reducing Cracking and Crazing
