Hi All,

Is there any recommendation/calculation for blow mold air holes sizes and quantity? So far Ive been usually putting 1mm holes on all transitions in geometry and vertically on every Xmm depending of size of blow molded part. And in base left 0,2mm clearance between base and cavity.

Cheers!

Miles
