The Process Settings feature is used to enter the processing conditions you wish to simulate.
The choice of process settings is dependent upon part geometry (size and thickness) as well as material choice. Family molds have different parts in the same mold. Sometimes it is necessary to compromise the process settings for the complete mold design when compared to the optimal process settings for individual parts.
The processing conditions consist of the following items:
Includes the mold temperature and polymer melt temperature.
Includes the maximum machine injection pressure and the velocity/pressure switch-over point.
Specified in seconds.
Specified in seconds.
Processing conditions can be entered manually, or you can obtain suggested conditions by running a Molding Window Analysis.
