Thermoset Molding Engineering

SMC cracking after compression molding can compromise structural strength, electrical insulation and product reliability, even when standard material tests meet specifications. For manufacturers facing SMC molded parts cracking during demolding, assembly or service, identifying the real failure mechanism is essential.

Engineers facing SMC molding defects or BMC molding defects rarely have a one-variable problem. This guide diagnoses SMC molding problems, BMC molding problems, SMC compression molding defects, BMC compression molding defects and BMC injection molding defects—including SMC part defects, BMC part defects, SMC cracking, BMC cracking,
