Mold filling analysis
Problems found after tooling development are always expensive and frustrating. For plastic part design and manufacture, there is a better way. By simulating the plastic-filling process for injection-molded parts, Pro/ENGINEER Plastic Advisor enables designing for manufacturability, uncovers problems, and proposes remedies, reducing development time and expense.
Capabilities & Benefits:
- Animates plastic injection fill process and automatically creates Web reports within Pro/ENGINEER browser
- Access library of common plastic materials and automatically select from typical injection-molding machine parameters
- Identify optimal injection locations to reduce cycle time and improve product appearance
- Identify potential mold-filling problems such as short shots, air traps, and weld lines
- Improve design quality and reduces manufacturing cycle times and rework of molds
