Rheology

Through rheology we can simulate plastic material flow in injection molding tools. Four steps are distinguished:

  • filling,
  • compacting,
  • cooling,
  • residual deformations.

Fields of activity

  • AUTOMOTIVE (climate control - heating - optics – carburation - etc.)
  • PHARMACEUTICAL (bottling)
  • TELEPHONY (landlines - phones - electronic cards - etc.)

Using these predictive analyses we can save on development of tooling costs by a complete diagnosis of the injection process:

  • Clamp forces.
  • Injection pressures in the cavity.
  • Optimization of the filling time.
  • Fields of temperatures.
  • Position of weld lines.
  • Air trap.
  • Frozen layer fraction
  • Estimating of time to freeze.
  • Stress and shear rates.
  • Volumic and linear shrinkage.
  • Evidence of principal deformation causes.
  • Deflections.
  • Inserts displacements.
