Aspect of filling imbalance that is originated from imbalanced share rate in runner is changed by material property, runner layout that are factors of changing viscosity and by injection pressure, injection speed, melt temperature and mold temperature that are injection conditions. In this paper, we made a study of runner system that is one of factor of filling imbalance and Sharp Conner Effect and Groove Corner Effect that are recently released. The study are showed that filling rate of between inside and outside cavity was influenced on shape of runner. Also, we suggested runner system for filling imbalance by adapting the two effects at multi cavity of unary branch type and theoretical investigated flow in the Shrap Conner runner type.

Almost all injection molds have multi-cavity runner system for mass production, which are designed with geometrically balanced runner system in order to accomplish filling balance between cavity to cavity during processing. However, even though geometrically balanced runner is used, filling imbalances have been observed. So, many studies for improving filling balance in the multi-cavities molds are worked up. In this study, the Melt-Buffer which is a new runner system for filling balance has been suggested, and a series of experiment about degree of filling balance in cavity-to-cavity was conducted in the mold with the Melt-Buffer. From the experiment, the filling balance was increased up to 5~6% by using the Melt-Buffer.

It is well known that the family-mold has an advantage to reduce the cost for production and mold. However, defects are frequently occurred by over packing the smaller volume cavity during molding, especially when the family-mold has a volumetric difference between two cavities. In this study, the cavity-filling imbalance was confirmed by the temperature and the pressure sensors, and a variable-runner system was developed for balancing the cavity-filling. Experiments of balancing the cavity filling was carried out in the family-mold with the variable-runner system, and balancing the cavity-filling was confirmed by changing the cross-sectional area of a runner in the variable-runner system with the temperature and pressure sensors. The influence of the injection speed to the balancing-capability of the variable-runner system was also examined in the experiment.

For mass production, usually injection mold has multi-cavity which is filled through geometrical balanced runner system. Despite geometrical balanced runner system, filling imbalances between cavity to cavity have always been observed. These filling imbalances are one of the most significant factors to affect quality of plastic parts. Filling imbalances are results from non-symmetrical shear rate distribution within melt when it flows through tile runner system. It has been possible to decrease filling imbalance by optimizing processing conditions, but it has not completely eliminated this phenomenon during injection molding processing. This paper presents a solution for these filling imbalances by using Runner Core pin (RC pin). The Runner Core pin which is developed in this study creates a symmetrical shear distribution within runner. As a result of using Runner Core pin, a remarkable improvement in reducing filling imbalances was confirmed.

During the injection molding process an excessive packing can occur in the smaller volume cavity because of volumetric difference of the family-mold. It causes warpage by increased residual stress in the product and flesh by over packing. In this study, we used a variable-runner system for the filling balance of the cavities by changing the cross-sectional area of a runner, and confirmed the filling imbalance by temperature and pressure sensors. We carried out experiments to examine the influence of types of resins such as LDPE/ABS/PA6,6 on the filling balancing of the system, in order to help mold designers, who can easily adopt the variable-runner system to their design. We also examined filling imbalance in the system with CAE analysis.

The runner-valve is an effective solution for the filling balance of the multi cavity molds. Automation of the runner-valve system is necessary for more efficient and accurate control of the filing balance. We designed an automatic runner-valve actuator for the automation and characterized the actuator by experiment. We obtained a linear relationship between motor-driving time and the height of the runner-valve. However, the motor-driving times for upward and downward directions were different due to the frictional characteristics of the actuators. Also we obtained the motor-driving times for backlashes of the 4 actuators. The results were used to formulate the relationship between the resin-arrival time and the flow rate change of the runner-valve with the theoretical equation that was derived in the previous research.

본 논문은 FAC (Forward converter Active Clamp) 회로를 통해 변압기 자화인덕턴스에 저장된 에너지를 셀 밸런싱에 재사용하는 Active Clamp Forward converter 기반 셀 밸런싱 회로를 제안한다. 제안 회로는 클램프 커패시터의 충전 균형으로 스위치를 전압 스파이크로부터 보호하고 전력손실을 초래할 수 있는 변압기의 자기포화를 방지할 수 있다. 제안한 셀 밸런싱 회로는 RCD 포워드 셀 밸런싱 컨버터 보다 더 높은 전력 전달 효율과 낮은 전압 스트레스를 갖는다. 제안한 액티브 셀 밸런싱 회로는 동시에 모든 셀이 균등화 되도록 작동하므로, 셀밸런싱 시간이 짧다. 본 논문에서는 제안 회로의 배터리 상태에 따른 제어모드를 설명하고 회로의 타당성 검증을 위해 Powersim 사(社)의 Psim 시뮬레이션 연구를 수행하였다.

Flow imbalance among the cavities was often observed in multi-cavity mold. The flow imbalance affects on the dimensions and physical properties of melded articles. First of all, the origin of flow imbalance is geometrical imbalance of delivery system. However, even the geometry of delivery system is balanced the cavity imbalance is being developed. This comes from the temperature distribution in the cross-section of runner, which is affected by the operational conditions. In this study, experimental study of flow imbalance has been conducted for various injection speeds. This study also suggests new runner design to eliminate flow imbalance in multi-cavity injection mold. Simulation and experimental results showed suggested new designed runner could eliminate or reduce flow imbalance in multi-cavity injection mold.
