Mould & die plywood is produced by highly technical precision process environment. All the measuring instruments used in this process are calibrated and are latest quality products. Input of raw materials like veneer, resin and chemicals are segregated and tested before processing to ensure their quality. All the timber logs of selected species like dipterocarp us [Gurjan (keruing)], fagus sylvatica (steam beach) etc. are given steam treatment to take out the oil and soften the fiber for precision peeling on peeling lathe. This product is cured under digital controlled parameters to maintain all the chemical & mechanical properties. Application: Moulds for molding techniques like, injection molding, blow molding, transfer molding rotational molding, casting, patterns, profiles, extrude, die etc. Thickness : 25 to 200 mm Sizes : 1220 x 120 to 1675 x 3200 mm 3 Density : 0.95 to 1.40 gm/cm Adhesive : BWP grade, IS 848:2006 TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS Properties BIS Requirements Observation IS 3513 : 1989 Values 1.
