The Press force:XY Plot result shows the force applied by the press over the duration of the analysis, displayed on an XY plot of force versus process time.
It is generated from an Injection-compression analysis.
For the compression phase of injection-compression molding, the press force is calculated by multiplying the pressure by the projected area of the compression surfaces (excluding the feed system) on the parting plane, at specific time instants.
If only press packing is applied, when the press force reaches the press force used, it will remain at that preset value (constant force).
