    Injection Molding

    The problem here is that I have projects were I have to design the process for a molded part with a required cycle time. The cooling time represent 70-80% from the total cycle time and other than experimenting different approaches I don't have any ideea if that cycle time can be attainable.

    Injection Molding

    I have the impression that I was misunderstood. Molding expanded polypropylene (EPP) suppose (in short) to fill the cavity with beads(pellets) of expanded propylene by means of pressure in a fill gun, steaming the mold, cooling it and then ejecting the parts(automotive parts). My question is...

    Injection Molding

    I know that there is simulation programs for plastic injection where you can choose the material. Does any one knows about such programs for expanded propyplene mold injection?

    Injection Molding

    Does anybody knows about a software simulation for expanded polypropylene molding injection? I am looking for this simulation because I am working in processing expanded polypropylene (injection molding)and I want to better estimate the cooling time.Or any method to estimate cooling time for...
