The second phase of molding process preparation is preparing the mold for optimal functionality. This lesson focuses on installing and setting up the sequencing from mold open to close, part ejection, and other optional mold functionalities.
In this lesson you will learn the steps to take prior to beginning the molding process development phase; how and when to utilize temperature and pressure transducers; what to know when the mold is being set up and how to set up ejector systems; how to evaluate the proper cylinder size and screw design for a molding project; and how to evaluate the polymer material to be molded.
