초록

LCD 프레임은 중 대형 TFT-LCD BLU의 기본형상을 유지시켜주는 중요한 부분이다. 중 대형 LCD 프레임을 효율적으로 생산하기 위해 1 캐비티에서 2 캐비티 사출 공정으로의 개선이 필요하다. 2 캐비티 금형 구조는 콤팩트하게 되었고 핫 런너 존이 증가되었기 때문에 사출온도를 조절하기 어렵게 되었다. 본 연구에서는 2 캐비티 사출성형공정으로 생산된 프레임에 대한 품질을 평가하기 위해서 유한요소해석 프로그램을 사용하여 사출해석을 수행하였다. 1 캐비티와 2 캐비티 공정에서 계산된 사출압력과 최대 변형량은 각각 41.13 MPa과 1.62 mm, 40.49 MPa과 1.66 mm이다. 1 캐비티 프레임의 측정된 최대 굽힘 하중, 표면거칠기가 140 N, 0.13 ${\mu}m$, 인데 비하여 2 캐비티 중 좌, 우 프레임의 측정값들은 209 N, 0.08 ${\mu}m$와 193 N, 0.10 ${\mu}m$이다. 열화상은 2 캐비티 금형 중 좌 우 금형 온도의 최대 표준 편차값은 $1.23^{\circ}C$임을 나타내고 있다. 시뮬레이션과 측정은 전체적으로 2 캐비티 사출공정의 프레임 품질이 1 캐비티 품질보다 나쁘지 않다는 것을 보여주고 있다. 그러나 2 캐비티 공정에서 프레임의 최대 굽힘 하중값은 1 캐비티 공정의 하중값보다 매우 증가되었다.

The LCD frame is an important part which supports the BLU of medium/large sized TFT-LCD. To produce it efficiently, it is necessary to achieve the molding process improvement from 1 cavity to 2 cavity system. Because 2 cavity mold is compact and its hot-runner zone is broadened, it is difficult to control the temperature on the mold. In this study, injection molding analysis on the frame in 2 cavity process with FEA(Finite Element Analysis) software is carried out to estimate its quality. The calculated injection molding pressures and maximum deflection in 1 and 2 cavity processes are 41.13 MPa and 1.62 mm, 40.49 MPa and 1.66 mm respectively. The measured maximum flexure load and surface roughness of the left and right frame of 2 cavities are 209 N and 0.08 ${\mu}m$, 193 N and 0.10 ${\mu}m$ while those in 1 cavity are 140 N and 0.13 ${\mu}m$. Thermal image shows that the maximum standard deviation of the temperature on left and right side of 2 cavity mold is $1.23^{\circ}C$. The simulation and measurement results show that the quality of the frame in 2 cavity injection molding process as a whole is not worse than that of 1 cavity system. But maximum flexure loads of the frame in 2 cavity process are far greater than that in 1 cavity process.
