Ampacet's AI system automatically corrects color variations in real time, improving quality and reducing waste in operations.

Soft viscoelastic solids are flexible materials that can return to their original shape after being stretched. Due to the ...

Last month's Simple Science covered heat, the physics division most important to extruders. It's the countable energy that softens the material and makes it extrudable. If you haven't read it, it's ...

Babies are born with different reflexes that help them survive the first months of life. Reflexes are involuntary actions that arise in response to certain stimuli. The extrusion or tongue-thrust ...

T-slot extrusions used to be somewhat mysterious, but today they are quite common thanks to their use in many 3D printers. However, it is one thing to assemble a kit with some extrusions and another ...

Scientists have developed a vacuum-assisted extrusion method that reduces internal porosity -- by up to 75% -- in large-scale 3D-printed polymer parts. Large-scale additive manufacturing has been ...

The manufacturing of metal components often seems like a choice between two extremes. On one side, there is the slow and ...

More agile techniques are improving the development of multiparticulate drug-delivery systems. Pellets have gained considerable popularity as multiparticulate delivery systems. Widely demonstrated to ...

Hydro has decided to consolidate the Extrusions operations in Europe with a proposal to close five of its European plants. This move is made to optimize the extrusion footprint in Europe and ...
