High equipment and tooling cost methods are typically used for large production volumes whereas low - medium equipment cost and tooling cost methods are used for low production volumes.
High-performance plasticsHigh-performance plastics are plastics that meet higher requirements than standard or engineering plastics. They are more expensive and used in smaller amounts. Plastic#Special purpose plastics High performance plastics differ from standard plastics and engineering plastics primarily by their temperature stability, but also by their chemical resistance and mechanical properties, production quantity, and price. There are many synonyms for the term high-performance plastics, such as: high temperature plastics, high-performance polymers, high performance thermoplastics or high-tech plastics.
