A new characterizing method for warpage measurement of injection-molded thermoplastics

Injection molded plastics are widely used for mass production in auto industry. However, it is challenge to produce parts that do not warp. It is helpful to have an accurate way to measure the warpage when investigating and solving warpage issues. In this paper, a new technology is introduced to measure the part warpage quickly and accurately with the help of digital image correlation (DIC) method. The polypropylene plaque were fabricated by...
