Plastic Pressure Drop During Injection Molding
By Suhas Kulkarni, President of FIMMTECH
As plastic flows through the different sections of the injection molding machine and the mold, because of drag and frictional effects there is a loss of the applied pressure at the flow front of the plastic. Additionally, as the plastic hits the walls of the mold, it begins to cool increasing the viscosity of the plastic requiring additional pressure to push the plastic.
