Working with Silicone Extrusions inspired Boyd to analyze our processes to see how we could make a more positive environmental impact. As part of a continued effort to become more environmentally sustainable, Boyd’s Weiler-Simmerberg, Germany facility evaluated...
In our previous blog, we talked about the most common types of thermoplastics used in injection molding and how they compare against each other. Today, we’ll be going over improving the characteristics of resins with plastic additives. What are Plastic...
When it comes to designing a new plastic component, it’s important to understand that no material is a one-size-fits-all solution. Characteristics such as cost, temperature resistance, manufacturability, impact resistance, and structural integrity can vary...
Embedded systems are becoming more complex, processing and analyzing a growing number of sensors and signals. The result of this increased computing is often higher and more concentrated electronic heat loads. How to Design a Liquid Cooling System for High-Performance...
What Is Rubber Bloom? Bloom refers to formation of a dust or film on the surface of rubber compounds. The particulates that create bloom are recrystallized rubber compounds that are insoluble or unable to stay within the rubber as the material cools down to room...
While plastic injection molding remains the cornerstone of plastic components manufactured at Boyd, plastic machining is one of the many secondary capabilities available to our customers. With a dedicated and automated equipment for machining, Boyd can machine plastic...
