Fill Analysis
Fill analysis is the first step of simulating plastic injection molding.
In the fill analysis we will determine:
- Balanced fill
- Gate location
- Number of gates required
- Gate/runner sizes
- Location of weld lines
- Shear rate / Shear stress
- Valve gate timing (if required)
- Fill pressure
- Melt front temperature
- Processing conditions
Pack Analysis
Pack analysis is the second step of simulating plastic injection molding.
In the pack analysis we will determine:
- Clamp tonnage
- Packing profile
- Density
- Volumetric shrinkage
Cool Analysis
Cooling analysis is the third step of simulating plastic injection molding.
In the cooling analysis we will determine:
-
Cooling time
-
Coolant temperature
-
Verify cooling lines achieve acceptable part cooling
-
Cycle time
Warp Analysis
Warp analysis is the fourth and final step of simulating plastic injection molding.
In the warp analysis we will determine:
- The amount of displacement in the X, Y, and Z directions
- Part shrinkage
Reports
Once a job is complete we will provide:
- A power point report showing Fill, Pack, Cool, and Warp
- Fill animation
- Warp animation and warp stl
- Viewer file (if required)
- Operator process sheet
