Tech Tip Friday

Does your "discount" come at a price?

This episode breaks down what wide spec material really is, and how wide spec material can impact your injection molding process. Kurt takes a look at:

• What wide spec actually means
• The risk of melt flow variation
• The trade-off between cost savings & productivity

If you caught last week’s episode, "Molded in Stress with Wide Spec PP", you saw the real-world case study: a persistent warpage issue that traced back to wide-spec PP with melt flow variation.

Material consistency plays a major role in the molding process. Before making cost-driven material decisions, it’s worth understanding the full processing impact.
