Optimizing Flow for the Two Color Injection Mould Design

Article Preview

Abstract:

Commercial CAD/CAM systems provide semi-automatic tools to assist the designer in the dimensioning process. Analytical solutions to injection molding problems are very rare due to thecomplexities of the governing equations, the material behavior and the cavity geometry. Study of window frame fabrication by injection moulding process was carried out with the aid of Moldflow® software. Ejector plate designs were created to compare the pros and cons of each design. The investigations were carried out on flowing, packing, cooling and costing of injection moulded window frame. Using the method, good results have been obtained for several basic geometric models.
