You have selected a premium quick-turn delivery. Certain restrictions apply. Please review the Quick Turn Rules for more information.
You have chosen a glass-filled resin. Please note that parts moulded with glass-filled resins are more likely to suffer from warp than with unfilled resins.
You have selected a textured finish. Please note that a PM-T1 (light bead blast texture) may only be applied to areas which are drafted 3 degrees or more, and that PM-T2 (medium bead blast texture) may be applied in areas which are drafted 5 degrees or more.
You have chosen a TPE (thermoplastic elastomer). Please note that it is very difficult to predict the shrink of this resin. It is sensitive to wall thickness, part design, moulding process parameters and lot-to-lot variation. Please call Protomold Customer Service Engineering to discuss if you have questions -- +44 (0) 1952 607447.
Due to the size of your part, side pull cams or some other geometry constraint of your part, we must place it in a large mold which runs in a large press. There is a 10 cubic inch minimum shot size on this press. We will use a disposable dummy part to achieve this minimum, and your parts are priced accordingly.

The following illustrations indicate changes to the model which are required for compatibility with the Protomold process.

1. Features require the minimum thickness indicated by the colour below:
minimum thickness = 0.50 mm
An updated file will be needed to make this part.
The following illustrations indicate part design considerations for optimal performance in the injection moulding process.

1.
Yellow colour coding indicates areas where part thickness is significantly less than nominal. These areas may have fill problems.

2.
Yellow colour coding indicates areas where part thickness is significantly less than nominal. These areas may have fill problems.

3.
Dark blue colour coding indicates areas where part thickness is significantly greater than nominal. Sink marks, voids, and excessive shrink are possible in these areas. Warp of these and other areas of the part may occur.

4.
Dark blue colour coding indicates areas where part thickness is significantly greater than nominal. Sink marks are possible in these areas.

5.
If you choose a textured finish on your part: PM-T1 (light bead blast texture) generally requires at least 3 degrees of draft, and PM-T2 (medium bead blast texture) generally requires at least 5 degrees of draft. Faces coloured red have a draft of less than 3 degrees, and faces coloured yellow have a draft of 3-5 degrees. If you do want a textured finish on these faces, we recommend adding additional draft to avoid possible drag marks, cosmetic flaws, missing texture, and to assist in proper ejection of the part.

The following illustrations indicate general information about how your part will be moulded and areas in which the moulded part will differ from the geometry of the CAD model due to the milling process used in mould manufacture.

1.
Corners that will have a radius due to the milling process are colour coded as follows:
radius = 0.20 mm radius = 0.28 mm

Notes
- Customers are responsible for ensuring that the properties and performance of the resin selected meet the requirements of their application.
- There is no provision within the Protomold process to make the tool "steel safe." Since dimensional tolerances are highly dependent on the material selected and on the part design, we are not able to guarantee that a specific tolerance will be met.
- A-side shown in green. B-side (ejection side) shown in blue.
-
The expected tolerance in a well designed part in PP, Natural (PP PP7064L1) is +/- (0.08 mm + 0.005 mm/mm).
