sprue

Software; CAM

The sprue is the main feed channel that connects the mold cavity with runners leading to each cavity gate.

start of fill

The start of fill is the time at which melted polymer starts to flow. This happens after the screw has started to move and corresponds to the start of the pressure rise in the nozzle.

stroke

Software; CAM

The stroke is the distance between the screw back position and the screw forward position of an injection molding screw. This provides a measure of the amount of polymer injected during a cycle.

Design of Experiments (DOE) is an engineering method which determines which variables in your design have the most, and least, effect on final part quality. DOE also analyzes how part quality changes ...

mesh - volume (3D)

Software; CAM

A volume mesh consists of solid, tetrahedral shaped mesh elements. Each tetrahedral element consists of four Midplane mesh elements joined to create a solid tetrahedron. Tetrahedral elements have ...

reynold’s number

Software; CAM

The Reynolds Number is a ratio that defines the rate of fluid flow in pipes. The onset of turbulence in water is between 2300-4000. The Reynolds Number is assigned to cooling circuits when the flow ...
