Abstract

Polymer metal hybrid structures are specially designed and manufactured to bring together the relevant characteristics of each component into a single structure. In this sense, these structures can combine the mechanical strength of metals with the lightness and durability of polymers They are used in various sectors such as transportation, household appliances, energy and biomedical. Metal insert injection over molding is an important technique for the assembly of polymer metal hybrid structures. It is based on the injection molding of thermoplastics, an automated process that makes it possible to obtain parts with complex geometries and dimensional precision, in very short molding cycles.
