The Temperature difference, parting plane result shows the difference of the averages in temperature between the top and bottom sides of the parting plane elements during the cycle.
Cycle time includes clamp open time.
The distribution of the temperature difference between the top and bottom sides of a parting plane should be uniform or show only small variations to ensure even cooling and minimal warpage due to differential cooling effects. The smaller the difference, the more effective the cooling.
The temperature difference between the top and bottom sides of a parting plane should be small. Larger variations may indicate a poor cooling system design, and may contribute to part warpage. The difference between the top and bottom temperatures of the parting plane should be within 5°C.
