The Re-melt zone, overmolded components (3D Overmolding) result shows places where the first component may not have completely frozen, or has re-melted, when the second component is injected.
This result is generated at the end of an Overmolding Fill analysis using 3D analysis technology.
Re-melting occurs when the first component has not cooled enough before the second component is injected, or when the melt temperature of the second component is sufficient to heat the material in the first component above its transition temperature. This result tells you where, on the boundary between the first and second components, re-melting is likely to occur.
Re-melting of a thin skin increases structural strength between the components. However, it is generally undesirable because it causes unpredictable changes to the properties of the first component, such as its exact shape or optical properties.
