Abstract

The high pressures during an injection molding process can lead to premature failure in the mold if slender segments or cores in the mold are deformed by the melt during filling or when switching to packing pressure. The resulting stress peaks with each shot can lead to rupture even after relatively low numbers of cycles. All necessary data to consider this in the simulation are usually available, since injection molding simulation is almost a must for every plastic part design process. If such a problem is detected at an early stage, it often can be avoided with relatively simple measures. The effort required for a holistic simulation is manageable, but the benefits can be considerable.
