- Company Profile:
Moldflow develops plastic injection molding software.
The injection velocity is the speed at which polymer is injected into the mold cavity during the injection phase. If the injection velocity is too high, it can cause part defects such as flash and delamination.
Industry:Software
The injection volume is the amount of polymer injected into the mold cavity during the velocity phase.
Industry:Software
The melt temperature is the temperature of the polymer as it starts to flow into die.
Industry:Software
The mold is the steel tool used on the injection molding machine. The mold acts as a heat exchanger in which the molten thermoplastic solidifies to the shape defined by the cavity.
Industry:Software
The no-flow temperature is the temperature at which a polymer ceases to flow inside the mold cavity after injection.
Industry:Software
The non-return valve is located in front of the injection screw on an injection molding machine. It allows material to flow in one direction and closes to prevent back flow.
Industry:Software
The part is the object that will be made. It is the finished product of the molding process.
Industry:Software
The parting plane is the surface of the two mold halves that separates when the mold opens.
