Contribution of Wall Thickness and Corner Design for a Robust Design of Thermoplastic Products

Article Preview

Abstract:

This paper presents relevant data for a robust design of thermoplastic products, as a support for optimization of product design. The study emphasis rules and recommendations related to wall thickness and corner design through which the developer could anticipate quality problems that might appear in the product’s lifetime, avoiding design features that might be difficult to be produced or produced with a cost that may not be feasible.
