Moldflow/C-MOLD Post-Filling
Test ID
G-002
Description
Properties needed to perform a Moldflow injection mold-filling and packing simulation are generated. These include viscosity vs. shear rate data at three temperatures (two in the processing range and one below); thermal properties and PVT data. Data are fit to Moldflow models.
Included Tests
| 1x | D-020 | PVT (Isothermal Heating) |
| 3x | R-011 | Capillary Rheology (1 Temperature) |
| 1x | R-018 | No-Flow Temperature |
| 1x | T-015 | Specific Heat |
| 1x | T-103 | Thermal Conductivity Scan |
Options
More advanced TestPaks are available to simulate shrinkage and warpage.
Samples
: 2 kg of pellets
[details]: 1 parts, any shape
[details]Application
Use this TestPak for properties required to simulate the packing stage, where a hold pressure is applied to the plastic to compensate for material shrinkage. Post-filling simulation may be used to determine how much pack/hold pressure to use, when to decrease the pressure, and how long to apply the pressure prior to gate freeze.
