The book Moldflow Design Guide is written in support of the logic behind the software application Moldflow. Where the material at times refers to the decision processes of the software, the book has great insight into how plastics are manufactured through the injection molding process. This insight is the basis behind the decisions made by the software, logic the reader can use as well. Through discussion about the design of mold cavities, runners, sprues, flash, bores and screws, as well as the differences in polymers and flow rates one can gain great insight into the processes involved. Where theory can only be carried so far in the real world, this material is a great starting point.

Some use of unexplained industry jargon, can initially cloud the readers understanding until later in the material. I use this book as one of several technical references in writting articles for a free on-line magazine that focuses on plastic polymers and the manufacturing processes [...], sponsored by Precise Mold and Engineering a custom plastic manufacturing company([...]).
