CAM

ejection

Software; CAM

Ejection is the removal of molded parts from the mold by mechanical means, or with compressed air.

ejection temperature

Software; CAM

Ejection temperature is the averaged temperature of the part at the time it is ejected from the mold. A molded part should be ejected only when it has enough strength to undergo the force of ...

ejection time

Software; CAM

Ejection time is the moment when the mold opens to eject the part. For example, an ejection time of 42 seconds indicates that 42 seconds elapsed from the moment the mold closes for injection until ...

ejector pins

Software; CAM

Ejector pins are located on the mold and push the part out of the mold when the clamp is open.

process parameters

Software; CAM

Process parameters are variables that typically correspond to molding machine settings. Commonly used process parameters include: *Maximum injection pressure. *Screw cushion. * Pressure ...

processing conditions

Software; CAM

Processing conditions are the variables that control the molding process. These include: *The injection velocity. *The pressure applied to the melt. *The mold and melt temperatures. The material ...

purging

Software; CAM

Purging is the cleaning of one color or type of material from the injection molding machine. This can be done by forcing the material out with a new color, a new material, or with another purging ...
