Experience Sharing on Solving Appearance Defects through Moldflow Average Volume Shrinkage Analysis
Moldflow software is used to analyze the average volume shrinkage rate of products and simulate the injection molding process for the appearance parts of 3C products. By analyzing the flow of the injection molding process, the optimal gate position for the part is identified, and potential defects such as air traps and weld lines are predicted and displayed. In addition, by examining changes in injection pressure, clamping force, the filling process, temperature variations, and product quality during molding, the analysis helps process engineers identify defect causes before mold trials. This, in turn, allows for improvements in both the mold structure and product design, enhancing the success rate of mold trials.
