Ejection time

Software; CAM

Ejection time is the moment when the mould opens to eject the part. For example, an ejection time of 42 seconds indicates that 42 seconds elapsed from the moment the mould closes for injection until ...

Mesh

Software; CAM

Injection moulding simulation involves solving the governing equations of mass, momentum, and energy numerically over the physical domain. The numerical implementation involves discretizing the ...

Intersecting mesh elements

Software; CAM

Intersecting mesh elements are mesh elements that lie on different planes and intersect each other.

Jetting

Software; CAM

Jetting is the snake-like stream of polymer melt that occurs when the melt is pushed at a high velocity through restrictive areas (such as the nozzle, runner, or gate), into open, thicker areas, ...

Melt density

Software; CAM

Melt density is a single point density value of a polymer at its average processing temperature, and at zero, or near zero, pressure.

Mould open time

Software; CAM

Mould open time is the duration of time during which the mould is open. mould open time begins when the mould opens for part ejection and ends when the mould closes so that the screw can begin moving ...

Nominal part thickness

Software; CAM

Nominal part thickness is the thickness of the part at the thickest section.
