The light guide plate has become the major component for the backlight module in general information technology products (e.g. mobile phones, monitors, etc.). High speed injection molding has been adopted for thin walled LGP giving advantages such as weight, shape, size, and reduction in production costs. In the current study, the rheological characteristics of high liquidity plastic resin PC(HL8000) were measured using a capillary rheometer to improve the reliability of the numerical analysis for high speed injection molding. With the measured viscosity and PVT of PC(HL8000), numerical analysis of injection molding was conducted using the simulation software(Moldflow). Filling time and deflection were predicted and compared with those of traditional PC resins(H3000, H4000). The results show that PC(HL8000) has significantly different rheological characteristics during high speed injection molding. Hence proper properties of the resin should be used to improve the accuracy of numerical predictions.

This research covers the development of new technique for composite injection molding of high stiffness Sabot. An analysis of polymer resin is performed by means of making test specimen mold and doing test with accordance of ASTM test guidelines. Structural analysis and simulation of injection molding process are carried out in order not only to estimate but also to predict the characteristics of molding stresses what both product and structure of mold may have. For structural analysis software, Moldflow and LS-dyna are used and universal test machine is utilized for evaluating performance of sabot. Cases of adopting this material to sabot are not announced yet in domestic academic world. In addition to that, materials for polymer-metal mixed injection molding are imported on the whole due to deficient level of domestic technology. Therefore, this new developed injection molding technique using PEI material can make it available to ensure the technology of making mold, injection and design. Finally, this technique may be applicable to another sabot having different radius of warheads from now on.

Mold Analysis is crucial factors in the design of injection molding process. Since the qualify of products depends on filing, shrinkage and etc, the procedure of prediction through analysis in the design of injection molding process is needed. In many cases, this kind of analysis makes it possible to predict pressure pattern which determines the condition of injection molding process. Crystallinity is the factor that determines the shrinkage of products. The studies showed the factors that had been related to the degree of crystallinity, which were mostly Weight Reduction, mold temperature and melt temperature. Therefore, the objective of this study is to see the differences of the degree of crystallinity depending on the positions of foamed plastics. The procedure of this study is as the following. First, Simulate the pressure gradient in mold cavity that can produces specimen by using Moldflow. Secondly, produce specimen and measure the degree or crystallinity of each part of specimen by using XRD. Lastly, identify the sensitivity of conventional plastic and foamed plastic on pressure gradient by comparing the simulation and the results of measurement.

Recently, the application range of plastic gears is widely expanding by the development of engineering plastics with good mechanical properties. Plastic gears have excellent performances such as light weight, water resistance and vibration absorbing ability for metallic gears. In this study, the optimization of injection molding process was done for the large disk type plastic gears of auto phoropter. Design Of Experiment (Taguchi method) was adopted to find a tendency of molding conditions that influence the flatness of disk type gear. Four main factors for molding conditions were selected based on injection temperature, filling time, packing pressure and mold temperature. Also, Filling, packing and cooling analyses were carried out to evaluate Z directional deflection of large disk type gear by using the simulation software (Moldflow) based on the DOE. From the results, it was found that the injection temperature and packing pressure are the most sensitive parameters for the Z directional deflection of large disk type gears.

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.

MOLDFLOW사의 CAE S/W를 사용하여 A사의 TV speaker grille의 최적 성형 조건을 도출하였는데 캐비티 안으로 충전되는 수지의 양을 조절하는 방법 중 flow balance, runner balance, 그리고 이 두 가지를 절충한 세 가지 방법으로 유동과 보압 해석을 수행하였다. 또한 실제로 각각의 온도별 점도와 전단속도를 측정한 결과(local database)를 이용하여 해석하고, standard database에 의한 해석결과와 비교 검토하였다. Speaker grille에서 flow balance는 성형품의 weld line을 최소화함으로써 양호한 외관과 weld line의 기계적 물성 저하를 최소화시켰으나, 제품 중앙부의 과충전으로 인한 과도한 변형이나 gas가 발생하는 단점이 나타났다. Runner balance는 각 gate로부터 사출되는 수지의 양을 균등하게 조절함으로써 flow balance의 단점을 보완하였으나, weld line의 외관과 기계적 물성이 저하하는 단점이 나타났다. 그러나 flow balance와 runner balance를 절충한 형태의 runner의 직경을 변형함으로써 두 방법이 가지는 단점을 보완하였다. 또한 각각의 온도에 대한 점도와 전단속도를 실측한 local database와 기존의 standard database에 의한 해석 결과를 비교한 결과, 실측의 점도가 다소 높게 측정되고 온도 분포의 편차가 넓게 나타났음에도 불국하고 두 data의 해석 결과는 거의 차이가 없음이 확인되었다.
