This study presents the preform injection molding and the blow molding of the injection stretch-blow molding process for PET bottles. The numerical analysis of the injection molding and the blow molding of a preform is considered in this paper using CAE with a view to minimize the warpage and the thickness. In order to determine the design parameters and processing conditions in injection/blow molding, it is very important to establish the numerical model with physical phenomenon. In this study, we appropriately predicted the warpage, deformation and thickness distribution along the product walls.

This study analyzed the deformation behavior of the high density polyethylene (HDPE) bottle in the blow molding process. We carried out finite element (FE) simulations using ANSYS Polyflow. First, the axisymmetric model was executed by 2D FE-simulation to determine the change of bottle wall thickness during the molding process. Then, the square model of the bottle was executed by 3D FE-simulation to gauge the effects of gas pressure on the change of wall thickness. The experiment results showed that the FE-simulations were able to upgrade the quality of the HDPE bottle in the blow molding process. These results can be used as guidance in adjusting gas pressure, as well as be extended for further study to determine process parameters such as temperatures, forming velocity, parison shape, etc.

In this paper, the automatic assembly and packaging system was developed for PET blow molding products. The PET blow molding products mainly are used in groceries case and are in great demand. Generally, the molding process is compose of 4 processes such as plastic resin injection, molding, ejecting and packaging. In case of packaging process, although amount of work per hour is very large, all processes are still performed by the manual work. For this reason, the automatic packaging system was developed with the function of automatic hand-grip part assembly. For the development of system, the existing processes and the shape of molding product were analyzed and specifications were deducted. Finally, the automatic assembly and packaging system was developed and applied to the manufacturing field.

PET bottles are main]y manufactured by the stretch blow-molding process. In order to improve the thickness distribution to avoid crack generation at bottom region of one-piece PET bottle, process analysis of stretch blow-molding using a finite element method has been carried out. Finite element analysis has been carried out using ABAQUS/Standard. CREEP user subroutine provided in ABAQUS has been used to model PET behavior that is rate sensitive. Among the process parameters, the effect of plunger movement to thickness distribution of bottle has been considered by axisymmetric analysis. A modified process of plunger movement, which yields more uniform thickness distribution, has been proposed. 3D FE analysis has been done to confirm the validity of the proposed process.

Rapid Prototyping(RP) techniques have revolutionized traditional manufacturing methods. These techniques allow the user to fabricate a part directly from a conceptual model before investing in production tooling and help develop new models with significant short time. This paper suggests to new process to manufacture large size hollow shape parts for prototype-car using Rapid Prototyping technology and Vacuum Molding with the reduction of delivery time. In addition, This paper introduces the dividing and combining method to make large size RP master model in spite of the limit of the build chamber dimensions of commercialized RP system and post-processing method to achieve sufficient surface quality.
