Possible cause

Recommendations to resolve

Injection molding machine

1.Melt surface temperature is too high.

Reduce injection cylinder temperature.

2.Plastic stranded in cylinder of injection is taking too long.

1.Reduce the total cycle time.

2. Injection volume on injection molding machines is too small.

3.Melt temperature is too low casues mold filling time unstable.

1.Increase injection cylinder temperatures.

2.Increased jet nozzle temperature.

3.Increase mold filling velocity.

4.Not enough injection pressure.

Increase injection pressure.

5.Inaccurate temperature controller, control was mixed.

Check the temperature controller for precision and control.

Mold

1.Mold surface temperature is too low.

1.Increase mold temperature.

2.Limit the speed of coolant flow through the die.

2.Injection molded parts have some no-plastic-plastic.

1.Increase the size of cold material hole.

2.Extended tail to form additional cold stream hole.

3.Electric heats nozzle and note muzzle.

3.Runner and gate length is too small or too long, plastic at the time of delivery caused by condensation.

If necessary, increase the runner diameter and depth of the gate.

4.Too many release agents on mold surface.

Thoroughly clean mould surface with white alcohol.
