Mold Calculation

This document provides calculators for determining the projected area, tonnage requirements, and optimal injection unit size for plastic molding projects. Users input dimensions of round or rectangular parts to calculate total projected area for each cavity. Total projected area is then used to determine recommended tonnage levels. Finally, part weight and cavity count are used to recommend an injection unit capacity. The document includes both US customary and metric units.
