Analysis of the Thermoplastic Composite Overmolding Process: Interface Strength

Overmolding is a technology in which a thermoplastic composite laminate is thermoformed and subsequently injection overmolded. This near-net-shape manufacturing process is well suited for automated large series production of complex 3D structures with excellent structural performance and a high leve...
