injection molding
In the field of injection molding.
Here is a couple of examples, for context.
"Ensartet afkøling reducerer risikoen for kast (deformitet)"
"så man med det blotte øje kan se eventuelle kast."
The text itself defines it as "deformities," however is there a specific term used in the field of injection molding for this.

I wouldn't be so sure about shrinkage. These are two different things, and I think that (only) warpage fits here.

Most of my dictionaries also give both options; nevertheless, there is a difference. As one website puts it, uniform change in size is normally called shrink, and nonuniform change in size causes warp (Google warpage vs shrinkage for details).

Note from asker:
Thanks Egor for your additional note, and for your help here. About "shrinkage" - I agree with your comment, however in the context of the document I was working on, what they were referring to was deformities in the form os shrkinkage. (perhaps the term was misused here). |
