Temperature dropped below minimum limit (Low Quality Prediction)

About this result

The Quality prediction result indicates this area of the part may have unacceptable quality. This is because the melt temperature at the point you selected is too low.

The Temperature at flow front result contributes to determine the Quality prediction result. If the temperature in an area is too low, the Quality prediction result will be yellow or red in that area.

Problems caused by low temperature

If the Temperature at flow front result is too low in a thin area of the part, hesitation or short shot may occur. If it is too low in an area where weld lines are present, the weld lines may appear to be worse, and may be structurally weaker.

What to do

The following options are available to improve the result:
  • Alter part thickness; low melt temperature can be caused by hesitation, which can be avoided by increasing the thickness of the area.
  • Move the polymer injection location closer to the problem area, or add additional injection points to improve the likelihood of all sections of a part filling and being of acceptable quality.
  • Alter the processing conditions of the selected material; increase the melt temperature of the current material to improve quality.
  • Select a different material with a higher melt flow rate.
