Temperature, part insert result

Using this result

You can use this result to identify localized hot or cold spots on the surface of the part insert. Using the cutting plane tools, you can also examine the temperatures within the part insert.

Things to look for

• The temperature of the part insert should not be colder than the coldest inlet temperature or the initial temperature of the mold.
• If the initial part insert temperature you have specified is less than the melt temperature, ensure that part insert warms up adequately during the cycle.
• Conversely, if the initial part insert temperature you have specified is greater than the melt temperature, ensure that part insert cools down adequately during the cycle.
