Clarify tool-related questions and evaluate the influence on the idealized consideration of the part.
The execution of the tool design significantly influences the previously assumed idealizations. The question arises as to how the rheology and thermodynamics of the tool influence the component. The following points are analyzed under this aspect:
-
Balancing of the runner system
-
Sealing point of the gate
-
Shear in the runner system
-
Pressure loss in the runner system
-
Optimal gating position
-
Cascade control
-
Optimal cooling (cycle time, quality)
-
Shrinkage behavior
-
Warpage (geometry- or tool-related)
-
Ratio of molding volume to gate volume
