Example of clamping unit characteristics

The following rules are some of the basic ones and are not sufficient to optimize the design, 

These rules can be modified according to the actual problems. 

High thickness favours sinking, warpage and shrinkage, porosity and voids. Designing ribs or gussets can reduce wall thickness. 

Injection moulding leads to the best part tolerances but plastics differ because of their morphology, structure, rheology, etc. The geometry of a part and the complexity of the corresponding mould vary. Consequently, the tolerances of a part depend on
