Abstract

The Plastic and plastic products demand in present era is increasing at an increased pace. Plastic injection molding starts with component feasibility and then mold making considering various parameters. In mold designing, molded part is affected by ample factors. This paper focuses on the effects of different gate and its sizes on the component and molding parameters. Optimization plays a vital role in the manufacturing of plastic parts to increase the quality and efficiency of the process. Thus, Mold Flow analysis software is used to find the effects different gates and their gate sizes have on the component. This Paper describes the influence of different gate sizes of Film Gate and Submarine Gate to check air traps and various process parameters such as clamping force and fill time.

Keywords: Injection Molding, Film Gate, Submarine Gate, Air Traps, Fill Time, Clamping Force

Article published in International Journal of Current Engineering and Technology, Vol.5, No.1 (Feb-2015)
