This automotive interior component animation demonstrates our ability to balance the flow of plastic throughout a large part. We strive to deliver a simple, manufacturable hot runner system that provides the largest process window with the least amount of injection pressure and clamp force requirements. This is achieved by bore balancing drops, modifying wall stock wherever possible and deciding drop locations. We are the industry experts in large tooling and process simulation of these single cavity multiple drop hot runner systems.
image A comparison is made between the Moldflow model and actual results for an interior light truck component. This example demonstrates both the accuracy of our analysis methods as well as our desire to follow the part into production. We support each product from conception to manufacturing. By taking the time to compare actual part results to analysis predictions, we can verify the analysis and provide support for molding trial troubleshooting. If there are any discrepancies, we investigate the differences, and then utilize the lessons learned on the next project. We are constantly learning about ways to improve the analysis process.
