Cooling accounts for roughly 80% of the molding cycle. An effective handbook dedicates significant space to cooling system design. This includes:
: Ensuring the cavity is filled completely without "flashing." Flow : Optimizing the speed at which plastic fills the mold.
A PDF is useless if it sits buried in a folder. Here is your 5-step workflow for integrating the handbook into your daily CAD design process.
Not all PDFs are created equal. A pirated, scanned copy of a 1980s textbook lacks the updates on high-temperature engineering plastics (PEEK, PEI) and conformal cooling. A professional-grade handbook PDF typically includes the following six core modules.
