A large plastic molding requires an injection molding with a large clamping force. However, it could not be prepared in the manufacturing at any time. In order to solve the problem, the injection molding analysis study was conducted on the back cover of 55 inch LED TV. The study compared the case of applying the existing flow system such as hot runner, the improvement of the hot runner lay-out and the precise control of the gate operation time, From the results of using the improved flow system, it was found that the welding and the clamping force were considerably improved as compared with before the improvement. In particular, the clamping force was reduced by 50% compared with before the improvement.

Recently, injection molding process became more popular than ever to produce large quantities of high precision products. Extensive studies have been conducted for reducing the residual stresses and birefringence in injection-molded optical products. Flow-induced and thermally-induced stresses and birefringence have been found as two main sources during injection molding process. Generally, quantitative value of birefringence can be measured with polarizing microscope using the compensator. However, it is difficult to measure low order retardation with microscope, so developing a measurement system for low order optical path difference is in need. In the present paper, a system using Photo Elastic Modulator (PEM) is demonstrated to measure low phase retardation in injection-molded products.

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.

The importance of simulation of plastic flow in the injection mold is increasing as the parts are more complex, but the small-scale enterprises can't afford to invest for the infra individually. CAE (Computer Aided Engineering) service was naturally born based on these needs. This paper presents the engineering collaboration model between the large and the small/medium enterprises in the field of injection molds. Based on the engineering collaboration hub and CAE service, small-scale enterprises could research the necessary technology and develop the proper products. The analysis results of CAE are provided by the integrated visualization system on the web. This paper also deals with the delivery shorting process of CAE service for electric/electronic parts which should meet the needs of customers as soon as possible.

In the manufacture and processing of large plastic materials, product quality is tested and verified through several techniques such as injection processing, residual stress through injection molding and shrinkage. With regards to the injection molding process, common problems such as inconsistent density is seen when different points of the product are discovered to have varying thickness levels. Sink marks in product are then evident. This occurs when there is poor molding conditions caused about by poor runner and packaging systems incorporated into the process. We designed the runner system which is possible balanced filling to cavities using CAE program $Moldflow^{TM}$ and then obtained optimal processing conditions by Taguchi's Robust Design technique.

화장품제조업은 동일한 제품을 대량으로 생산하고 소비되는 구조로 금형을 통한 생산은 필연적이다. 화장품을 담는 용기는 소비자의 구매의사에도 영향을 주는 요소이며 완제품가격에서 차지하는 부분이 크기 때문에 경제성, 심미성과 기능성을 충족시키는 금형이 필요하다. 화장품 용기 중에 사각형태의 용기는 미성형 불량이 다른 형태의 제품보다 자주 발생하는 특징을 가진다. 기존에 사각형 형태의 화장품용기 제작공정은 2단 금형에 사이드게이트 구조로 금형을 제작하는데 이는 후가공과 게이트 흔적이 남는 단점이 있다. 본 연구에서 제안한 오버랩게이트는 후가공이 거의 없고 음각으로 게이트가 절단되는 특징이 있으며, 사이드게이트와 비교하여 Moldflow를 이용한 유동시스템을 시뮬레이션 하였다. 오버랩게이트가 유동성, 고화, 밀도, 에어트랩 등에서 유동성 향상과 불량률을 낮출 수 있는 결과를 확인하였으며, 해석결과를 기반으로 금형을 제작을 하고 사출성형 하였다. 본 연구를 통해 미성형 불량을 줄이고 심미성, 기능성 등의 특성을 가지는 화장품용기 제품의 대량생산 가능성을 검증하였다

It is a small injection molding machine for table top considering the material heating mechanism and the design and structure stability by securing the mechanism that compresses the inside of the material heating tube by using the electric actuator and by providing space between the body and the material heating tube to reduce heat loss Develop body. An electric actuator suitable for applying pressure to the inside of a material heating tube is a mechanical system composed of a rigid structure. Since a large force is repeatedly applied to the electric actuator and the push rod, the interaction between the moving parts and the dynamic Maximum stress through analysis and prediction of fatigue life of critical parts The pushrod reflects the structural analysis results of the electric actuator and the push rod, and pushes the inside of the material heating tube by the push rod to inject the molten material from the nozzle into the mold. The pushrod operates by the operation of the electric actuator. The material heated by the coil heater is ejected through the nozzle by the pressure of the material heating tube, and the material heating tube and the nozzle are also lowered at the same time as the push rod is lowered, so that the material is closely adhered to the mold. We want to study the completion of the injection.

사출성형에서 수지의 불안정한 흐름에 의해 성형품에 표면결함이 발생되는데 이는 gate의 치수, 운전조건 그리고 고분자 용융물의 유변학적 성질과 밀접한 관련이 있다. 본 연구에서는 PC, PBT, 그리고 PC/ABS alloy에 대해 다양한 사출속도에서 성형품의 표면결함의 형성에 대해서 조사하였다. 표면결함의 형성을 조사하기 위해 여러 가지 cavity 모양, 즉 기계적 물성 측정에 쓰이는 인장, 굴곡 그리고 충격시편의 형상을 이용하여 이들의 cavity와 gate의 두께를 다양하게 하여 실험하였다. 본 연구를 통해 사출성형의 충진 과정에서 letting에 의한 표면결함은 die swell과 die swell의 지연에 크게 영향을 받음을 관찰할 수 있었다. 큰 die swell은 jetting을 없애는데 유리하나 die swell의 지연이 커지면 jetting을 촉진시킨다. Cavity와 gate의 두께 비를 작게 하면 수지의 종류에 관계없이 jetting과 표면결함을 줄이거나 없앨 수 있다. 또한 작은 두께비는 사출성형에서 고분자 용융물의 안정된 흐름을 유지시키기 위할 작업 조건들의 선택의 폭을 넓게 하여 준다.

Agglutination is one of the most commonly employed reactions in clinical diagnosis. In this paper, we have designed and fabricated nickel mold insert for injection molding of a microfluidic lab-on-a-chip for the purpose of the efficient detection of agglutination. In the presented microfluidic lab-on-a-chip, two inlets for sample blood and reagent, flow guiding microchannels, improved serpentine laminating micromixer(ISLM) and reaction microwells are fully integrated. The ISLM, recently developed by our group, can highly improve mixing of the sample blood and reagent in the microchannel, thereby enhancing reaction of agglutinogens and agglutinins. The reaction microwell was designed to contain large volume of about $25{\mu}l$ of the mixture of sample blood and reagent. The result of agglutination in the reaction microwell could be determined by means of the level of the light transmission. To achieve the cost-effectiveness, the microfluidic lab-on-a-chip was realized by the injection molding of COC(cyclic olefin copolymer) and thermal bonding of two injection molded COC substrates. To define microfeatures in the microfluidic lab-on-a-chip precisely, the nickel mold inserts of lab-on-a-chip for the injection molding were fabricated by combining the UV photolithography with a negative photoresist SU-8 and the nickel electroplating process. The microfluidic lab-on-a-chip developed in this study could be applied to various clinical diagnosis based on agglutination.
