Moldflow develops plastic injection molding software.
A feasible moulding window is represented by a set of boundaries that define a window-like shape. For the process setting ranges inside the window boundaries, the moulding process is feasible; outside the window boundaries, the moulding process is not feasible.
Industry:Software
A fillet is a rounded interior corner of a part that makes the part stronger.
Industry:Software
A flash occurs when the polymer is not totally contained within the mould cavity. The most common causes of flash are an excessive velocity stroke, injection velocity, packing pressure, and a low clamp force.
Remove flash by either reducing the injection velocity or increasing the clamp force.
Industry:Software
A flow path is a route along which molten plastic moves within the cavity.
Industry:Software
A free edge is an element edge that is not shared by other elements. A free edge has an element attached to only one side. An edge is a line segment that connects two mesh nodes.
In Fusion and 3D meshes, free edges should be corrected because they indicate elements which have not been correctly attached. See also manifold edge and non-manifold edge.
Industry:Software
A manifold edge is a mesh edge that has two entities attached to it. An edge is a line segment that connects two mesh nodes.
In a Fusion mesh, manifold edges are the only type of edges which are correct. All other types should be corrected.
A = free edges
B = manifold edge
C = non-manifold edge
See also free edge and non-manifold edge.
Industry:Software
A masterbatch is a concentration of filler or additives in a polymer. The mixture is added in small amounts to create the desired mix.
Industry:Software
A mathematical description of the relationships of the physical entity being described. For example, a geometry model is a mathematical description of the physical shape and characteristics of the part. Other models include viscosity model, process model, etc.
