    This page of the Process Settings Wizard, which can be accessed by clicking (Home tab File:Simulation_Moldflow/enu/2013/Help/Insight_360/2750-Analysis2750/2854-Process_2854/ac.menuaro.gif Molding Process Setup panel File:Simulation_Moldflow/enu/2013/Help/Insight_360/2750-Analysis2750/2854-Process_2854/ac.menuaro.gif Process Settings), is used to specify filling and packing phase simulation related process settings for the first component stage of the overmolding analysis sequence.

    NoteSome of the items listed below may not be available on the current dialog. This is dependent on the mesh type, molding process and analysis sequence selected.

    Mold surface temperatureThe temperature of the mold at the plastic-metal interface, where the plastic touches the mold.
    Melt temperatureThe temperature of the molten plastic, or melt, as it starts to flow into the cavity.
    Filling controlSpecifies the method by which the filling phase of the analysis is controlled.
    Velocity/pressure switch-overThe criteria by which the molding machine will switch from velocity control to pressure control.
    Pack/holding control Specifies the method by which the pressure phase of the molding process is controlled.
    Cooling timeSpecify a cooling time, or have it calculated automatically during the Fill+Pack analysis.
    Advanced options...Displays the advanced options for the analysis.
    Fiber orientation analysis if fiber material Enables a Fiber orientation analysis if the material includes fiber.
    Birefringence analysis if material data includes optical propertiesProduces stress-optical birefringence results if the material has optical properties.
