Air trap

    Table of contents
    No headers

    An air or gas bubble that has been trapped by converging flow fronts, or trapped against the cavity wall, which causes a surface blemish on the plastic part.

    Air traps can be prevented by changing the gate location or the thickness of the part. Vents should be placed at the location of the air trap.
