Moulding

Here we will look into the molding side of things. If we have done our part and mold design correctly we should not have too much problems here. However as we all know part and mold design can be a compromise between theory, best practice, cost and what is practical.  So we will be most lightly left with testing and troubleshooting to do. We will also have to find the best parameters to run the mold economically as possible. Here we will try to cover all that..

For injection molding;

  • Material,
  • Drying,
  • barrel temps,
  • Hot Runner temps,
  • Mold temps,
  • Injection speeds
  • Mold speeds,
  • Ejector speeds,
  • Injection pressure,
  • Holding pressure,
  • Switch over point,
  • Monitoring
  • Validation
  • DOE
  • Trouble shooting
