In this lesson you will learn to evaluate the switch-over point from filling to packing. The switch-over point from a flow-control to pressure-control is one of the most important set points in the molding process.
This lesson covers how timing the switch-over point setting from fill to pack impacts a part and determining the optimal switch-over point by evaluating injection pressure, clamp tonnage, and flow rate graphs.
