COMMON PROBLEM
COMMON PROBLEM
Q: How to fix sink marks on plastic parts?
Increase packing pressure/time and optimize rib thickness (≤60% of main wall thickness).
Q: Why do multi-cavity molds underperform?
Likely due to unbalanced runners or uneven cooling. Optimize the gating system.
Q: How to shorten mold development time?
Implement modular design, 3D-printed prototypes, and concurrent engineering.
Q: Why is demolding difficult?
Check draft angle (≥1°), ejector pin layout, and mold surface polish (Ra≤0.2 recommended).
Q: How to handle mold surface corrosion?
Apply anti-rust coatings, clean regularly, and control cooling water pH (6.5-7.5 recommended).
Q: How to choose gate location?
Determine optimal position via mold flow simulation based on product structure, wall thickness, and aesthetics to minimize weld lines.
Q: How to resolve poor mold venting?
Increase venting slot depth (0.02-0.04mm) or use porous steel. Ensure vents are unblocked.
Q: How to fix excessive dimensional deviation?
Check mold machining accuracy, cooling system consistency, and material shrinkage. Use mold flow analysis for optimization.
Q: How to prevent flash on products?
Flash is caused by worn parting surfaces or excessive injection pressure. Repair mold gaps and adjust clamping force.
Q: Why does mold lifespan shorten?
Mold lifespan is affected by material selection, heat treatment,
maintenance frequency, and injection parameters. Use high-hardness
steel, perform regular maintenance, and optimize pressure/temperature.
