Process setting
V/P changeover and holding setup: which values to start the machine with?
The path to getting injection speed, speed profile, V/P changeover, holding pressure and holding time right from the start; the "gate freeze" study.
Process settingViscosity curve test: choose injection speed by measurement, not guesswork
A method to find the most stable injection speed by measuring how fill time and pressure change as speed changes.
Process settingWhat is scientific molding? Moving the setup from "feel" to data
The core steps of an approach that takes the process out of the operator's hands and makes it measurable, repeatable and transferable to another machine.
