Modelling of fibre damage in single screw processing
Source abstract
Abstract
In injection moulding, long glass fibre reinforced thermoplastics (LGFT) are an attractive way to produce large parts at low cost. However the strength of the part depends chiefly on the average fibre length, fibres which are subjected to considerable attrition during processing in conventional three stage screws.
