Why Can Small Bakelite Insulation Parts Require a Large Thermoset Transfer Molding Press?

Small Bakelite parts do not always belong on a small press. Multicavity tooling, projected area, full-shot charge, pot-and-plunger requirements and insert-handling clearance determine whether a standard or large thermoset transfer molding press is the better fit.
