Compression molding is the process we use at TenCate/CCS Composites. We can mold parts that are very small or over 5 feet (1.5 meters) in length, with thicknesses as thin as 0.050 inches and well over ...

Injection molding’s disadvantage, however, is it requires tooling that is typically very expensive — certainly more expensive than tools for compression molding. Further, overmolding requires that the ...

The manufacturing parameters of compression molding process, such as temperature, pressure, and process times, were carefully controlled and monitored in order to study the impact of warpage and voids ...

By leveraging its unique compression molding process, the company helps OEMs streamline production, extend part life, and eliminate failure points caused by bolted or welded assemblies.

Nissan says that by adopting compression molding for carbon fiber, it can reduce costs and production time, allowing it to use carbon-fiber-reinforced plastic in its cars.
