Moldflow develops plastic injection molding software.
Pressure-Volume-Temperature (PVT) data describes the specific volume (1/density) of a material as a function of temperature and pressure. It describes the temperature/pressure relationship for polymers over the entire processing range.
Industry:Software
Process parameters are variables that typically correspond to moulding machine settings. Commonly used process parameters include:
*Maximum injection pressure.
*Screw cushion.
* Pressure stroke.
*Cycle time.
*Charge stroke.
*Mean injection pressure.
Industry:Software
Processing conditions are the variables that control the moulding process. These include:
*The injection velocity.
*The pressure applied to the melt.
*The mould and melt temperatures.
The material grade being used.
Industry:Software
Purging is the cleaning of one colour or type of material from the injection moulding machine. This can be done by forcing the material out with a new color, a new material, or with another purging material.
Industry:Software
Routines are complete processes within Setup Xpert that optimise one aspect of a profile. There are six velocity routines that are used to optimise the velocity phase of the cycle, including the velocity stroke and the velocity profile. While the velocity profile routines are being used, the pressure profile is set to zero.
Industry:Software
Runners are the channels that feed the polymer from the sprue to the gates of each cavity in the mold.
A runner system includes the following:
*Runners.
*Gates.
*Sprue.
Industry:Software
Screw displacement is the distance the screw has moved during the injection phase.
Industry:Software
Screw velocity is the speed with which the screw has moved during the injection phase.
Industry:Software
Set points are the defining points on the velocity and pressure profiles. For the velocity profile, it is a discrete injection velocity and time/displacement coordinate. For the pressure profile, it is a discrete injection pressure and time/displacement coordinate.
