Balanced flow

    A part with balanced flow has the plastic melt fill the extremities of the mold at the same time and pressure.

    Balanced flow leads to uniform orientation, uniform shrinkage, less internal stress and warpage, and cost savings through reduced material usage. Gate location, runner system design, and part thickness affect flow balance.
