Crystallinity

Software; CAM

Crystallinity is a solid, molecular state of some polymers which denotes compactness of the molecular chains. This characteristic is attributable to the existence of solid crystals with definite ...

Crystalline polymers

Software; CAM

Crystalline polymers are a family of polymers that are characterised by an ordered arrangement of the molecules which fit closely together. Typically, crystalline polymers are more dense than ...

Ejection temperature

Software; CAM

Ejection temperature is the averaged temperature of the part at the time it is ejected from the mold. A moulded part should be ejected only when it has enough strength to undergo the force of ...

Ejector pins

Software; CAM

Ejector pins are located on the mould and push the part out of the mould when the clamp is open.

Dynamic flow

Software; CAM

Dynamic flow is the flow before the cavity is actually full, when a flow front still exists towards the end of the cavity. This results in an area within the mould without plastic.

Ejection

Software; CAM

Ejection is the removal of moulded parts from the mould by mechanical means, or with compressed air.
