A study on reducing deformation of a wide-thin product manufactured by injection molding

사출 성형 공정에서 wide-thin 제품의 변형 감소를 위한 연구

Injection molding is used to manufacture various kinds of products including very thin plate like frames. One such product is Door video phone system Panel which is our present object of investigation. During the molding process, large deflection problems in the final product always provokes for the several trials for the accuracy. To solve the issue we use Moldflow6.2 which is injection molding simulation software. It simulates the product exactly the way it happens in actual manufacturing environment. Differences in the geometrical parameters such as thickness changes will lead to the large deformation problems in the frame. However in our present study we simulate it in a well defined condition under several trials. Interesting observations are made in minimizing the deformation of the frame during the injection molding process. This way of approach is very useful in further works if any changes have to be made in the product.
