Hi guys,
I am a student who is studying with Mold flow 2010. During my using this software, I find difficult to distinguish between pressure at V/P switchover result and pressure result, can you help me?
Another problem is that in pressure at V/P switchover result, the composite did not fill completely all my object. Then what is problem and how to solve it. You can see the picture below to know more
Thanks!
Then it means that I can set the value of injection time or injection pressure to make the edge of 5 blades full of color? And can you explain clearly about this area?
You do not want the part to be 100% filled at v/p switchover as it is bad for the molding machine and the quality of your finished product. The best analogy I can think of is driving a car to your house - Velocity control is like driving on a highway, full speed until you get to your house. You then don't go 70 MPH into your garage and hope to stop before you hit the wall. Instead, you would slow down to maintain a speed that allows you to park accurately in the correct area, or use pressure control (or holding). Just like this analogy, it would be bad to bottom out the screw or suddenly jerk it to a stop from full velocity. This also maintains consistency for the packing of your part so certain ones aren't over packed while others are short shots based on lot-to-lot variations in materials.
Nice comparison, KaindlJ
Can I understand that it is momentary status? Then why does moldflow announced that the pressure of these areas are 0 instead of not display pressure there?
Hi
I'm not sure what you're asking, according to your picture 4 of the fan blades have areas that are not filled, and the 0 areas are at the end of the flow front where you would expect them to be. That picture looks OK to me, except that the blade that is completely filled will be overpacked at the end of the pack + hold phase since it filled faster than the other 4. Ideally the flow front would reach the end of all 5 at the exact same time.
