Why Powder Injection Molding  Molding Simulation?

Chemical Foaming Molding (CFM) is a molding process that full-fill the cavity with gas produced by chemical reactions. Polyurethane (PU) foam molding is the most common molding process in chemical foaming molding. According to its mechanical properties, PU foam products can be divided into two categories: rigid and flexible foam. Rigid foam cannot be reinstated under deformation, but flexible foam have the ability to their original state after apply a deformation. Polyurethanes can enables manufacturers to reduce weight, save cost, increased comfort, resist corrosion, insulate heat, and absorb sound.

Challenges

  • Difficulty of processing control (control of state of thermodynamic instability)

  • Unknown of foaming process (temperature and pressure variation)

  • Development of reliable CAE technology

 What Can Moldex3D Do?

  • Provide foaming kinetics for different by-products in chemical foaming process

  • Provide mold rotation process

  • Simulate the filling behavior during molding and predict the final part weight.

  • Estimate cell size & cell density for evaluating the product weight loss ratio

  • Optimize the design of gate location by analyzing through gravity and venting location
