Optimization of moulding process for plastic component through modification of process functional parameters

The paper presents the optimization of the plastic injection process through the reduction of the cooling and removing times. For the deployment of the experiment the polyamide6 will be used. The Unigraphics and MoldFlow software packages will be used for CAD and process simulation, the material flow into the mold, as well. The experiment aims to obtain the optimal variant of polyamide6 injection through the modification of the mold as well as the melt temperature in order for the mold filling to be complete and the cooling time to be as short as possible, therefore generating an increase of productivity.
