Most standard reciprocating screw injection molding machines are capable of molding unfilled and filled grades of VICTREX® PEEK™ polymer.
Complex high performance components can be readily mass-produced without the need for annealing or conventional machining.
However, due to the high melt temperature of VICTREX PEEK, certain design and process variables need to be considered including the following:
- Machine Design
- Barrel Temperatures
- Barrel Capacity
- Nozzles and Shut-Off Systems
- Injection and Clamping Pressures
- Screw Design
- Mold Design
- Mold Temperature
- Melt Flow
- Gating
- Hot Runner Systems
- Shrinkage and Tolerances
- Operating Conditions
- Injection Pressures and Screw Speed
