Overmolding Advanced Options dialog

This dialog is used to specify the overmolding related advanced options for the overmolding analysis sequence.

To access this dialog, ensure that you have selected the Thermoplastics Overmolding process and an analysis sequence that includes Overmolding Fill or Overmolding Fill+Pack, click Process Settings (Home tab > Molding Process Setup panel > Process Settings), click Next to navigate to the Fill Settings for Overmolding Stage or Fill+Pack Settings for Overmolding Stage page of the Wizard, then click Advanced options for overmolding stage.

Additional injection controller Allows you to select and edit an injection controller for the second component stage of the overmolding process. You can control the filling phase, velocity/pressure switch-over point, pack/holding phase, melt temperature, and mold-open time.
Injection molding machine Select and edit an injection molding machine to simulate your molding machine during the analysis. You can configure the injection unit, hydraulic unit, and clamping unit.
Mold material Allows you to select and edit the mold material to be used during the analysis. You can specify the density, specific heat, thermal conductivity, mechanical properties, and coefficient of thermal expansion of the mold material.
Solver parameters Allows you to select and edit the solver parameters to be used during the analysis. You can configure intermediate results, mold/melt convergence criteria, and analysis restart settings.
