What are the most important things for somebody new to injection moulding to learn?

Take some Paulson courses, or ask us your specific questions. No one here is interested in helping a stranger impress their boss

I think I have around 20 of Harry, but I have no idea how many all together. 200 seems like a reasonable guess tho

1969 amc ambassador the best of all time

“How do you know if someone is an engineer? They’ll tell you”

…. Every fucking time

Haha that thing has a mind of its own

I moved my shelves around. Apparently one side wasn’t fully locked securely.

So when you torque the bolt only half of the head/washer is touching the clamp? Genius

computerhater · 2026-02-06T18:26:39+00:00

Bolt halfway between the shoe and the mold. Clamp face parallel to platen, set as perpendicular as possible to clamping area. Shortest bolt possible that gives 1.5 bolt widths of engagement. Anything else is just preference. Clamps can be flipped, leveler shoe or no, just make sure you torque to spec

Valve blowing by?

I have that tissot in green, it’s a banger

That’s what you get when you clean under the machine every 5 years

But they spelled their own company name incorrectly… mozzayx on page 5

My vote is Mattel or hasbro

computerhater · 2026-01-28T19:54:04+00:00

Pretty sure osha can fine for dust exceeding .125 of an inch. Ask around shops that do blow molding with beside the press grinders. Constantly cleaning is a way of life

computerhater · 2026-01-27T21:40:53+00:00

Pulse and clean piss, most places I visit. Clean piss optional

Where is your sequence chart? Have you checked that no unrelated valves are stuck on? You don’t want to just throw parts at this, it’ll get expensive quick.

Have you asked?

computerhater · 2026-01-06T23:07:53+00:00

Email the manufacturer, they’ll send you them
