Thermoset Molding Application

Thermoset Moulding Machine & Applications

Thermoset Injection Molding

Thermoset plastics are generally stronger than thermoplastic materials due to the three-dimensional network of bonds (crosslinking), and are also better suited to high-temperature applications. They have high mechanical strength and rigidity and are frequently used to replace metals, reducing the weight by as much as 75%. Thermoset materials are often used in vehicle engine compartments, oil pump and thermostat housings, water inlets & outlets and impellers. Brake linings and disk brake pads can also be manufactured in thermoset plastic.

Negri Bossi provide special applications for thermoset injection molding. This solution includes all the equipment required for reliable and optimal production of high-quality molded parts.
