This book teaches SPC and its application to specific processes in an integrated fashion. Many SPC training programs are taught by people that are very familiar with statistics but know little about plastics processing technology. However, successful implementation of SPC requires an understanding of SPC as well as process know-how. This book, therefore, aims to teach not only the principles of SPC but also basic injection molding and extrusion process technology.
Contents include:
- Injection Molding Technology
- Extrusion Technology
- Plastics and Plastics Properties Importanta in Injection Molding and Extrusion
- Introduction to SPC
- Data Collection, Data Analysis and Problem Solving
- Measurement
- Control Charts
- Process Capability and Special SPC Techniques for Molding and Extrusion
- Other Tools to Improve Process Control
- Appendices

Troubleshooting extrusion problems is one of the most challenging tasks for everyone involved in extrusion operations. It requires a good understanding of the extrusion process, knowledge of the material properties, good instrumentation, good analysis tools, and a systematic and logical approach. This book addresses all issues crucial in extrusion troubleshooting. In addition, industrial case studies, richly illustrated with photographs and photomicrographs are used to provide exemplary approaches to efficient problem analysis and problem solving.
Contents include:
- Requirements for Efficient Troubleshooting
- Tools for Troubleshooting
- Systematic Troubleshooting
- Case Studies
- Systematic Problem Solving
- Machine Troubleshooting and Maintenance

Polymer Mixing
By Dr. Chris Rauwendaal
We sold our last copy. However you may be interested in Mixing In Polymer Processing Edited by Dr. Chris Rauwendaal. Scroll down for more information on this book.
1998, 304 pages 159 figures 17 tables- This book covers the fundamental aspects of polymer mixing as well as modern mixing equipment. The text emphasizes the basic mechanisms involved in the different mixing processes with a quantitative description of each process. Mixing equipment discussed includes the single and twin screw extruders with a thorough discussion on the mixing processes occurring in these machines. Also covered are internal mixers, external mixers, and static mixing devices. The ability of today's engineers to handle polymer mixing problems quickly and effectively is a must in the polymer processing world. As an easy reference guide, this book can help solve these problems in the workplace.

Leakage Flow in Screw Extruders
By Dr. Chris Rauwendaal
We have several copies $35.00 still available call 530-269-1082 or email chris@rauwendaal.com!
Available from Rauwendaal Extrusion Engineering, Inc.
Written in 1988 for Dr. Rauwendaal's PhD Thesis.
This dissertation deals with various theoretical and experimental aspects of leakage flow of polymer melts in the flight clearance of screw extruders. A special leakage flow test (LFT) apparatus was developed to measure leakage flow over a flight. Experiments were also performed on a 38-mm single screw extruder with various polymers. A detailed theoretical analysis of melt conveying in screw extruders including leakage flow was developed; both analytical and numerical analyses are presented. The implications of this research is discussed in detail, specifically issues related to wear problems caused by metal-to-metal contact between screw and barrel.
