Precious Plastic Manual Plastic Compression Molding Machine
From Open Source Ecology
Basics
- The Compression Molding machine made by Precious Plastic
- Can be used with Plastic Flakes or Solid Plastic Sheets
- Works well for producing various shaped forms, but is not 100% neccisary if an extrusion, injection machine, or optimally a filament maker and winder are available
- May also be useful for Composites (fiberglass, basalt fiber or carbon fiber composites can (and often should) be compressed for additional strength)
- The "original" is pressed using a manual (Hydraulic?) Jack, but this is easily motorized without becoming a real Design Fork
