These simple-to-follow tutorials introduce you to common analysis sequences, and lead you through the primary workflows used.
A fill analysis looks at the filling phase of the injection molding cycle right up until the mold is completely filled. The filling analysis is the foundation for most of the analysis sequences. |

The pack analysis runs over the entire molding cycle, but the focus is on the packing phase of the cycle. The primary reason for running a packing analysis is to look at how the material shrinks. |
|
A cool analysis runs over the entire molding cycle, but the focus here is on how the part cools. The primary reason for running a cooling analysis is to evaluate and optimize the mold's cooling system. The minimum input requirements are the part, mold boundary, and cooling channels. |

The size and shape of the molded part are often critical quality factors. A warp analysis shows how much the part deflects relative to the nominal deflection. Here we look at warpage and its causes. Inputs for this analysis include results from cooling, filling and packing analyses. |
