Calculation center
Calculations needed every day on the shop floor: clamping, opening, shot weight, residence time, masterbatch and cooling. Everything runs in your browser; your inputs are not sent to the server.
Main toolProcess calculation tool
From part, raw material and machine to all starting values to enter on the machine: clamping, injection speed, pressure limit, V/P changeover, holding, cooling and cycle time; with on-site verification and saving to your account.
Single-purpose calculators
Clamping force calculation
Required clamping force and machine size from projected area and cavity pressure.
Mold opening stroke calculation
Minimum opening stroke required from part height, runner and robot clearance, distinguishing toggle and direct hydraulic (two-platen) machines.
Shot weight calculation
Part and shot weight from raw material density, and machine capacity utilization.
Raw material residence time in the barrel
Melt residence time in the barrel, from barrel capacity, shot weight and cycle time.
Hourly masterbatch consumption for injection molding
Hourly, shift and monthly masterbatch requirement from shot weight, cycle time and dosing ratio.
Hourly masterbatch consumption for extrusion
Masterbatch consumption from extruder output and dosing ratio.
Hydraulic oil cooling requirement
Heat transferred to the oil from pump power, cooler capacity and water flow rate.
Mold cooling requirement (chiller capacity)
Heat to be removed from shot weight and cycle time, chiller capacity and water flow rate.
