This analysis quickly provides you with recommendations for the injection time, mold temperature, and melt temperature to use as preliminary inputs for a Fill+Pack analysis.
The Molding Window analysis uses the part geometry and the selected material and injection location to run a series of calculations, varying the process settings each time.
For each of these calculations, the Molding Window analysis checks whether certain results are achieved and then recommends the injection time and the temperature zones to mold your part. The analysis shows the feasible and preferred molding zones, and also shows which process settings will result in the highest quality molding.
You can use the Molding Window analysis to calculate the best preliminary process settings for your study.
Use this dialog to specify settings for a Molding Window analysis.
The Molding Window analysis runs a series of quick calculations on the part, varying the processing conditions each time.
The Molding Window calculation uses information about the injection location and the size, shape, and thickness of the model to determine the lengths of the flow paths from the injection location to the points on the model's extremities.
The Molding Window Analysis checks whether the five conditions are acceptable and these calculations are checked against their ranges of acceptability.
