	Feature Article - Thermoform Tooling for the Injection Moldmaker - 12/02
		While injection moldmaking may be the predominant form of moldmaking in the industry, other types are in demand as well.
		Moldmakers that have the skills for more than one method under their belts stand to increase their value and their business.
		This article offers the injection moldmaker a short introduction into what is involved with thermoforming and thermoform moldmaking, and how they may find that it is a simple process to incorporate this new system into their shops.

		The moldmaker is then able to proceed with the mold build without restrictions or limitations in primary areas of the design.
		The moldmaker is then provided with an electronic file that requires significant time to clean up, or a part print that is still in the preliminary, unapproved stage.
		The moldmaker is restricted and told to stay out of certain areas of the mold until a dimension can be determined or a change approved by upper management.

		The moldmaker is able to proceed with the mold build without restrictions or limitations in primary areas of the design.
		He or she then provides the moldmaker with an electronic file that requires significant time to clean up or a part print that is still in the preliminary, unapproved stage and tells the moldmaker, “We’ll finalize design as we go along.” This is what they call concurrent engineering.
		The moldmaker becomes uncertain of the rest of the tool if he or she doesn’t have access to the entire thing at one time.

	SPI: Public Policy: Mold Lien/Mold Retention
		The plastics industry supports mold lien legislation because it provides molders and moldmakers with a means to obtain payment without having to resort to complicated and expensive paperwork and litigation.
		Mold lien laws provide a procedure for a molder or a moldmaker to legally take possession of and sell a customer’s mold as recourse in classes of non-payment for a mold or parts produced with that mold.
		As a matter of general practice, molders and moldmakers commonly ship the fabricated products before payment is received from the customer.

	Perfume bottle design, decoration is magnifique!. ( 05/03 pg 68 )
		Among these companies are three model-making/design firms, two foundries, 13 glass moldmakers, and 27 decorators that provide crucial services for the production of 75 percent of the world's glass packaging for perfumes and cosmetics.
		Intervening between the modeler and the moldmaker, the foundry provides the moldmaker with the cast iron used to produce the various parts of a mold.
		It is said that "a good moldmaker creates a glassmaker's fortune." Indeed, responsible for designing and machining with consistency and extreme precision the molds used to create all types of hollow glass objects to the both the designer's and the glassmaker's specifications, the moldmaker holds the success of each new bottle design in his hands.

	Better Production - Moldmaker Caps Bottle Mold Production Time With Scanning System
		Replacing tracer machining with scanning and digitizing at 1,000 points per second improves mold quality, eliminates patternmaking to reduce pre-machining time, and permits tool path generation through CAM to cut machining time by 40 percent.
		According to Mike Stiles, VP of manufacturing engineering for Creative Blow Mold Tooling, Inc., some of the company's biggest moldmaking bottlenecks used to come from bottles themselves.
		Based in Lee's Summit, Missouri, Creative makes blow molds for cosmetic, juice and water bottles as well as for handleware detergent bottles, which are subject to periodic design changes.

	Magnetic chuck attracts moldmaker (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-17)
		As a result, the workholding method is slowly replacing cumbersome setups and providing shops, in particular moldmakers, with easy-to-use, streamlined, and ready-for-automation systems.
		One such moldmaker benefiting from magnetic workholding is Ivanhoe Tool and Die in Thompson, Conn. The shop specializes in the design and building of plastic injection "unscrewing" molds that produce parts with threads.
		"Everything on the chucks is flat, parallel, and square — and coupling them with the 3R system adds repeatability." The moldmaking shop loads multiple pieces on its magnetic pallets, trying to stay with an even number or as many as will fit.
