Thickness of polymer at end of process result

The Thickness of polymer at end of process result shows the thickness of the polymer at the end of the cycle.

This result is generated at the end of a Gas-assisted Fill+Pack analysis using Midplane analysis technology.

Using this result

The Thickness of polymer at end of process result is defined as the polymer-skin fraction at end of process multiplied by the full-gap thickness.

The Thickness of polymer at end of process result is used to verify that the polymer thickness meets the design specifications of the part.

Things to look for

• Check that the polymer thickness meets the requirements for the part. Smaller than required thicknesses can cause part defects and might lead to a fragile part.
