This masterbatch helps manufacturers to efficiently injection mold attractive parts that appear to be covered with textile. This masterbatch also helps manufacturers transition from a complex polymers-and-textile process to more efficient, single-step molding.”  While they heighten consumer appeal, textiles also involve a complex manufacturing process and extra steps.

PolyOne is very pleased to work with Resol, helping them explore new possibilities in design and manufacturing and play a part in the success of the Vela table,” said Holger Kronimus, vice president Europe and general manager, Specialty Engineered Materials, Europe for PolyOne.  Working with PolyOne to transition from metal to plastic helped Resol increase its design options, lower overall weight and reduce manufacturing complexity, PolyOne was also able to help Resol achieve excellent aesthetics with molded-in color while eliminating the cost and hassles of painting. Based in Girona, Spain, the Resol furniture company includes Resinas Olot, a leading global manufacturer of plastic furniture for outdoor, office and residential use, and Plasfur by Resol, which offers injection molding and manufacturing services to customers in various industries.

OnColor™ Fiber Colorant Solutions offer environmental benefits with superior spinning performance to help manufacturers enhance their speed to market. Our advanced and sustainable solutions continue to move the textile and fiber manufacturing industry forward,” said Gary Fielding, global marketing director, Color, Additives and Inks. We are not only offering high-tech solutions and helping manufacturers to achieve a more sustainable development, but also using our expertise to help brands catch the latest color trends.

Recently, we applied our material and design expertise to help a major appliance manufacturer reduce vibration on their latest top load washing machine model. Vibration in top load washing machines can cause the units to ‘walk,’ which prompts a large volume of costly service calls to the manufacturer. PHOTO CAPTION: Supported by PolyOne’s material and design expertise, a major manufacturer switched to Versaflex VDT and reduced the vibration of their top load washing machine by 80 percent.

Hear from Meenali Parsekar, product manager for wire and cable materials at Avient to learn more about the manufacturing considerations for photovoltaic cable However, what needs to be considered when manufacturing photovoltaic cable?   Processing efficiency: In a competitive market, manufacturers want to maximize output, so choosing a material that processes well at good line speed is also essential.

Product engineers at Andwin Scientific, a leading manufacturer of medical and laboratory supplies, were determined to find a replacement for these wildly imprecise measuring methods. Better manufacturing efficiency: Cycle time for the two-part manufacturing process was 60% quicker than had been anticipated during development and production trials, and scrap rates were lower than expected; Based on reduced lead times and supply chain costs to get the same formulations from Avient’s manufacturing facilities in China, Andwin Scientific is working to develop Asian markets for the SealSafe® adapter.

Ensure material consistency with production globally Due to raw material availability and localized technical support, ensuring the product manufactured in one region is the same as the product manufactured in another can be a challenge. Design for manufacturing Consultative review of part, tool or process designs to help improve manufacturing and product outcomes

That means there's a need for more efficient manufacturing with innovative new materials. We have extensive experience helping manufacturers of LEDs and other forms of lighting to manufacture dependable parts more efficiently. The change increases design options, reduces weight and improves manufacturability.
