This practical introductory guide to injection molding simulation is aimed at both practicing engineers and students. It will help the reader to innovate and improve part design and molding processes, essential for efficient manufacturing. A user-friendly, case-study-based approach is applied, enhanced by many illustrations in full color. The book is conceptually divided into three parts: Chapters 1–5 introduce the fundamentals of injection molding, and how molding simulation methodology is developed, especially focusing on the effects on molding quality from the rheological, thermodynamic, thermal, mechanical, and kinetic properties of plastics, as well as curing kinetics for thermoset plastics. Chapters 6–11 introduce CAE verification on injection molding including design guidelines of part, gating, runner, and cooling channel systems. Temperature control in hot runner systems, prediction and control of warpage, and fiber orientation are also discussed. Chapters 12–17 introduce research and development in innovative molding, illustrating how CAE is applied to advanced molding techniques, including co-/bi-injection molding, gas-/water-assisted injection molding, foam injection molding, powder injection molding, resin transfer molding (RTM), and integrated circuit (IC) packaging. The 2nd edition contains many updates, including elaboration of material measurement data, connection of Smart Design and Smart Manufacturing, demonstration of the flow-induced fiber orientation effect, implementations of material characterization methods on PU reactive foaming and RTM, studies of dispensing control and creeping behaviors effects on IC underfill process, and much more. Several CAE case study exercises for execution in Moldex3D software are included to allow readers to practice what they have learned and test their understanding.

A user-friendly, case-study-based approach is applied, enhanced by many illustrations in full color. The book is conceptually divided into three parts: Chapters 1–5 introduce the fundamentals of injection molding, focusing the factors governing molding quality and how molding simulation methodology is developed. As they are essential to molding quality, the rheological, thermodynamic, thermal, mechanical, kinetic properties of plastics are fully elaborated in this part, as well as curing kinetics for thermoset plastics. Chapters 6–11 introduce CAE verification of design, a valuable tool for both part and mold designers toward avoiding molding problems in the design stage and to solve issues encountered in injection molding. This part covers design guidelines of part, gating, runner, and cooling channel systems. Temperature control in hot runner systems, prediction and control of warpage, and fiber orientation are also discussed. Chapters 12–17 introduce research and development in innovative molding, illustrating how CAE is applied to advanced molding techniques, including co-/bi-Injection molding, gas-/water-assisted injection molding, foam injection molding, powder injection molding, resin transfer molding, and integrated circuit packaging. The authors come from the creative simulation team at CoreTech System (Moldex3D), winner of the PPS James L. White Innovation Award 2015. Several CAE case study exercises for execution in the Moldex3D software are included to allow readers to practice what they have learned and test their understanding.

Injection Molding Process Modelling presents the application of CAE, statistics and AI in defect identification, control, and optimization of injection molding process for quality production. It showcases CAE in determining the optimal placement of injection points, designing cooling channels, and ensuring that the mold will produce parts with the desired specifications. The book illustrates the capability of the CAE tools to simulate molten plastic flow within a mold during the injection molding process. Explaining how the use of CAE, statistical tools and AI enhances efficiency, accuracy, and collaboration, the book explores the contributions to injection molding in product design and visualization; prototyping and testing; mold design; and analysis and simulation. It emphasizes the integration of statistical tools for optimized efficiency and waste reduction, including statistical process control (SPC), Design of Experiments (DOE), Regression Analysis, Capability Indices, Interaction effects, and many more. The book also illustrates the predictive modelling of typical injection molded product defects using intelligent algorithms. The book will interest industry professionals and engineers working in manufacturing, production, automation, and quality control.

This book provides a vision and structure to finally synergize all the engineering disciplines that converge in the mold design process. The topics are presented in a top-down manner, beginning with introductory definitions and the "big picture" before proceeding to layout and detailed design of molds. The book provides very pragmatic analysis with worked examples that can be readily adapted to "real world" mold design applications. It should help students and practitioners to understand the inner workings of injection molds and encourage them to think "outside the box" in developing innovative and highly functional mold designs. Contents: · Introduction to mold functions, types, and components · Review of design for injection molding · Cost estimation and optimization · Mold layout design including cavity layout, sizing, and materials selection · Cavity, runner system, and gating analysis and design · Cooling system analysis and design · Venting, shrinkage, and warpage analysis and strategies · Ejection force analysis and ejection system designs · Stress and deflection analysis with structural system designs · A survey of advanced mold designs
