CAM

region

Software; CAM

A planar space defined by a consistent set of curves. The curves connect but must not intersect.

semi-crystalline

Software; CAM

A plastic in a mixed state of crystalline and amorphous conditions. Most plastics are semi-crystalline. The crystalline content determines the physical properties or the part. See also crystalline.

point

Software; CAM

A point is a position in space. The first stage of creating a model is usually the creation of points, which are then joined together to create surfaces.

polymer

Software; CAM

A polymer is a natural or synthetic compound, usually of high molecular weight. Its long-chained structure consists of repeated linked molecular units called monomers (or mers). Monomers are ...

A preferred molding window is a refinement of a feasible molding window. It is represented by a set of boundaries that define a window-like shape. For the process setting ranges inside the preferred ...

pressure profile

Software; CAM

A pressure profile is a graph made up of set points joined by lines. The set points determine the pressure to be applied at specific time intervals. The pressure profile controls how the part is ...

process window

Software; CAM

A process window or molding window, defines the limits of molding conditions under which an acceptable part can be produced. If molding conditions fall within this region, then a good part can be ...
