Simulation Tools for Injection Moulding

In this paper the concern is certain simulation tools for the lling phase of injection moulding of plastics. A mathematical model, called the distance model, of the injection moulding process has been developed by Professor Gunnar Aronsson at the University of Linkk oping. From this model one can nd the lling pattern (i.e. ow fronts) of the molten polymer as it enters the mould, by solving a sh...

Best practice for benchmarking injection moulding simulation

Injection moulding simulation benchmarking is the comparison of predicted and actual process and quality parameters. Best practice requires that the inputs and outputs from an injection moulding simulation agree to the actual conditions of a real life moulding machine, as closely as possible. The accuracy of injection moulding simulation is influenced by many factors such as: the modelling of t...

A Model of the Injection Moulding Process

This paper is concerned with the injection moulding process, in which hot molten plastic is injected under high pressure into a thin cold mould. Assuming that the velocity and temperature profiles across the mould maintain their shape, a simple steady state model to describe the behaviour of a Newtonian fluid during the rilling stage is developed. Various phenomena of the process are examined, ...
