Comparison of Cooling Variants by Simulation Software

Abstract:

This paper deals with the verification of thermoplastic flowing when manufacturing plastic products by injection moulding used in the consumer industry. An analysis was performed by Plastic Insight, which is used for the determination of flow properties of thermoplastic materials. A good knowledge of flow properties of these materials enables a very good starting position for the design of thermoplastic products made by the injection moulding technology [1,2]. The task of this simulation was the comparison of injection parameters of a mould, with and without cooling of channels. Simulated thermoplastic material is used for the manufacture of ribs in washing machine drums. The tested material was polypropylene.
