injection molding is the most widely used process for producing plastic parts.in this process, an important issue is to predict and optimize the warpage before manufacturing. in this paper, a simulation with moldflow software is proposed to optimize the injection molding process. the optimization process aims at minimizing the warpage of the critical injection molding part in which process para...

Gas-assisted injection molding process is much complicated,the process parameters have multiplied. In this paper, a product with typical character of gas-assisted injection molded part is employed as the object of study. With the mould of gas-assisted injection molding and MPI/3D GAS in Moldflow software,the influence rule of the 6 important process parameters on gas penetration length in gas-a...

This class reviews new functionality in Autodesk Simulation Moldflow Insight software and discusses recent and current research directions of Moldflow development. We cover the following capabilities: viscoelastic warp calculations, improved wall slip calculations, the influence of mold deflection, ejection force predictions, analysis of mold fatigue, flow imbalances (airflow), 3D compression m...

A set of edge-gated and center-gated plaques were injection molded with long carbon fiber-reinforced thermoplastic composites, and the fiber orientation was measured at different locations of the plaques. Autodesk Simulation Moldflow Insight (ASMI) software was used to simulate the injection molding of these plaques and to predict the fiber orientation, using the Anisotropic Rotary Diffusion an...

In this paper, a numerical analysis of in-cavity residual stress formation in the thin-walled parts of injection-moulded parts is presented by considering the residual stresses produced during the post-filling stage. Injection moulding of shallow thin-walled parts with a thickness of 0.7 mm was performed using lignocellulosic polymer composites (PP + 50 wt% wood), and the parts have been system...

Taking the special-shaped plastic part as the research object, numeric simulation and experimental study of the injection molding process are completed based on the synthetical application of numeric simulation technology, orthogonal experiment method, Moldflow, injection machine and CMM. Optimal feeding system and molding process parameters are obtained and qualified products are produced. The...
