Die Swell
Extruded polymer "remembers" its previous shape when in the larger
cross section of the extruder, tries to return to it after leaving the die
orifice
Extrusion
Compression process in which material is forced to flow
through a die orifice to provide long continuous product
whose cross-sectional shape is determined by the
shape of the orifice;

Solid Cross Section
Figure 12.8 (a) Side view cross-section of an extrusion die for solid
regular shapes, such as round stock; (b) front view of die, with profile of
extrude. Die swell is evident in both views.
Hollow Profiles
Examples: tubes, pipes, hoses, and other
cross-sections containing holes
Hollow profiles require mandrel to form the shape
Mandrel held in place using a spider
Polymer melt flows around legs supporting the
mandrel to reunite into a monolithic tube wall
Mandrel often includes an air channel through which
air is blown to maintain hollow form of extrude during
hardening

Injection Molding
Polymer is heated to a highly plastic state and forced to
flow under high pressure into a mold cavity where it
solidifies and the molding is then removed from cavity;
Produces discrete components almost always to net
shape
Typical cycle time 10 to 30 sec, but cycles of one
minute or more are not uncommon
Mold may contain multiple cavities, so multiple
moldings are produced each cycle

17
Shrinkage
Reduction in linear size during cooling from molding to room
temperature
Polymers have high thermal expansion coefficients,
so significant shrinkage occurs during solidification
and cooling in mold
Compensation
for
Shrinkage
Dimensions of mold cavity must be larger than
specified part dimensions:
Dc = Dp + DpS + DpS2
Where:
Dc = dimension of cavity;
Dp = molded part dimension, and
S = shrinkage value
Third term (DpS2 ) on right hand side corrects for
shrinkage in the shrinkage.

Contd.
Corner radii and fillets (no inside or outside sharp corners are desirable)
Recommended draft:
For thermosets, ~ 1/2 to 1
For thermoplastics, ~ 1/8 to 1/2

Machining
Cutting action involves shear deformation of work material to
form a chip, and as chip is removed, new surface is exposed:
(a) positive and (b) negative rake tools
30
Disadvantages
with
Machining
Wasteful of material
Chips generated in machining are wasted
material
Machining Operations
Most important machining operations:
Turning
Drilling
Milling
Other machining operations:
Shaping and Surfacing
Broaching
Sawing
32
Turning
Single point cutting tool removes material from a
rotating work piece to form a cylindrical shape
33
Drilling
Used to create a round
hole, usually by means
of a rotating tool (drill
bit) with two cutting
edges
34
Milling
Rotating multiple-cutting-edge tool is moved across
work to cut a plane or straight surface
Two forms: (c) peripheral milling and (d) face milling

Effect
of
Higher Shear Plane Angle
Higher shear plane angle means smaller shear plane
which means lower shear force, cutting forces, power, and
temperature
