mesh - midplane

Software; CAM

Consists of three-node triangular elements located at the half-thickness of the part surface. Creating a Midplane mesh from a solid model involves extracting the mesh and the ...

switch-over

Software; CAM

Designates the transition from one phase to another, for example, the transition from the filling phase to the packing phase. Various switch-over methods can be used. For example, ...

orientation

Software; CAM

During shear flow, polymer molecules align themselves in the direction of flow. The extent of this orientation depends on the shear rate to which the material is subjected and the ...

tooling noise

Software; CAM

Excessive tooling noise may occur due to molding problems where the injection pressure is too high toward the end of the velocity phase. Excessive tooling noise may lead to tool ...

fiber orientation

Software; CAM

Fiber orientation is the direction of the fibers' major axis, relative to the flow direction.

filler

Software; CAM

Fillers are materials that can be added to a polymer for injection molding. Adding a filler to a polymer can increase the strength of the polymer and ensure that good quality ...

underflow

Software; CAM

Flow fronts from 2 directions meet, then pause momentarily, long enough for a frozen layer to develop, then the polymer in one of the flows reverses direction and flows back ...
