As we welcome in the second day of the Extrusion Conference, Jim Callari breaks down what we learned on day one.
Following the pellet through the extrusion process, topics yesterday covered auxiliary equipment through mixing and melting. Today we go more in depth on die design, sustainability, and troubleshooting. ✍️

As some of our team travels to Boston to meet with industry peers for the Extrusion Conference, we would like to say thank you to those who supported the event.
Slowed domestic and export demand as well as continued uncertainty of tariffs and concerns about the overall economy’s direction are among the contributing factors for the flat-to-down trajectory of prices the five commodity resins.
Check out the full report from Resin INC.
A new collaboration between NOVA Chemicals and Novolex is underway to reprocess plastic film on a large scale of over 100 million pounds per year. ♻️
The new recycling plant, in Connersville, is already in the process of bringing recycled material back into film applications.
Grupo Plastilene is making waves in North America with the installation of the first Windmoller & Holscher Aquarex water-quenched film extrusion line in the U.S. 💧
The company's investment in the line has enabled it to penetrate high-end barrier packaging markets.
What do you do after 35 years of success in injection molding? For Larry Austin, you start again—with purpose.
In his “second act” in plastics, Austin is doubling down on what matters most to him: keeping injection molding (and jobs) strong in the Midwest.
One of the most critical steps in successfully molding or extruding plastic parts is to provide proper drying of the resin.
From resin types to equipment, Resin Drying Knowledge Center, will walk you through everything you need to know to ensure quality through proper drying.
There are a lot of theories about screw bounce in injection molding it, but what's the actual cause?
The American Injection Molding Institute’s research on screw bounce actually resulted from what seemed to be a relatively simple question asked by one of its students.
🚨 There's only one week left to complete your 2025 benchmarking survey!
By completing this (free) survey, injection molders will receive a benchmarking report, showing how their responses to key productivity questions compare to other survey takers in an anonymous fashion.
Polymer Showdown, Round 2 🥊 PPO vs. PA66
Second in a series, experts at The Madison Group are pitting leading thermoplastics against each other to see how they differ. Poly PPO and polyamide 6/6 stand out as two popular choices, in the realm of high-performance polymers
The trajectory of prices for four of the five commodity resins was trending flat-to-down for at least the early part of the second quarter.
Contributing factors include sluggish demand as evident from lowered operating rates, lower feedstock costs.
