Hi Prabu,

first thought that comes to my mind, is that your melt front is having some flow restrictions in the cavity.

 

Check if there are some thin sections that may create heavy flow hesitation effects in your part. (assuming, the number of gates are the optimal ones; that they are strategically located; that you are using material's recommended temperatures; that your mesh is acceptable, etc.)

 

Good luck!

Hi Hugo Herrera...
this part having very simple geometry .there is no flow restriction but tube like geometry....
my doubt is whether that material property like that or the geometry[cid:image001.png@01CEBE8F.959F02F0]
