Problem #1 – Filling Thin Walls/Air Traps
Types of Problems:
- Air Traps
- Moldability
- Flow Balance
- Knit Lines
- SVG
Compression Solution
Start position thicker (1.2 mm) to fill without backfilling
Movable core compresses material to 0.2-mm membrane
Total time = 0.6 sec.
Problem #5 - Clamp Force
Types of Problems:
- Clamp Force
- Shrinkage Variation
- Sink Marks
Problem #9 - Cycle Time Improvement
Types of Problems:
- Cooling Uniformity
- Cooling Inserts
- Conformal Cooling
- Circuiting
Problem #14 - Multiple Fix (Fiber Orientation)
- Perpendicularity of L-shape
- Actual = (0.005, 0.004, 0.005)
- Well within 0.010” tolerance
- Perpendicularity of boss (0.0025”)
- Actual = (0.0011, 0.0013, 0.0012)
- Well within 0.0025” tolerance
Buy Software, Outsource, or Both?

How is this accomplished? By solving molding problems in simulation. This month we will show how easy Moldflow is to use in solving common molding problems, and why you should bring Moldflow software in-house as part of your design process.
