Abstract
Long-fiber-reinforcements in thermoplastics and their lowcost processing on injection molding machines is a combination that advances into areas of use, which were previously reserved for metals. This paper discribes the possibilities for optimum utilization of fiber reinforcement. Considerations involving processing and machinery to achieve a minimization of fiber length reduction represents a key aspect for long fiber reinforced thermoplastics.
