Editorial Review by:  Umberto F. Catignani, Orbital Plastics Consulting Inc.
Weighing in at 7 pounds and just shy of 900 pages, The Complete Part Design Handbook, For Injection Molding of Thermoplastics, written by Mr. E. Alfredo Campo, is the most complete and comprehensive handbook on thermoplastic product design available on the market today. It is undoubtedly the new reference manual for plastic part design in the industry.Mr. Campo has masterfully compiled hundreds of pages of reference material, equations, nomenclature, design guidelines and material properties accompanied by ample detailed real world design problems and sample calculations. To capture this wealth of information, one would need many books, catalogs and subject matter references. Mr. Campo has painstakingly performed this task with this publication and done so with his 35 plus years of hands-on experience in the injection molding design arena.
