Defects Analysis and Troubleshooting of Moulded Components

Date : 2 to 3 August, 2022

Time : 1340 Hrs to 1700 Hrs ( Online Mode )

INTRODUCTION

Injection moulded parts are widely used in automobiles, consumer goods, medical parts, aircraft interiors and many more types of products. Parts that may vary in shape, size and complexity are manufactured using the Injection moulding process in a moulding machine.

The process involves the injection of plastic material into a cavity, where the material cools and hardens as per the configuration of the cavity. Injection moulding can be performed with a host of materials like elastomers, thermoplastic and thermosetting polymers. Moulds are made by a mould-maker (or toolmaker) from metal, usually, either steel or aluminium and precision-machined to form the features of the desired part.

The injection moulding process poses many challenges, which may lead to defects in the final parts. In order to successfully manufacture a moulded part, it is important to understand the possible defects, get an understanding of the parameters that control the moulding process, which could be incorporated at the mould design stage itself.

Keeping this in mind, IMTMA is organizing a two-day online training programme on Defects Analysis and Troubleshooting of Injection Moulded Plastic Parts.

FOCUS AREAS		KEY TAKE AWAYS
The program is focused upon: What is injection moulding? Types of Injection moulding techniques Types of moulds used in the Industry DFMA in plastic moulding What are the main factors causing defects? The moulding machine Injection mould Operating conditions i.e., Pressure, Temperature, injection speed & time, etc, Material Design of product Process management Various defects, causes and solutions on: Sink Marks Weld lines Streaks Blistering Gloss difference Jetting Short shots Diesel effect Over sprayed parts (Flashes) Stress whitening / Cracking Warpage Hesitation Over packing Unbalanced flow Ejector marks Scratches on the parts Dull spots Deformations Flaking Cold slug Drooling Case studies from industries Importance of analysis software before mould design		At the end of the program, the participant shall be able to: Identify & prevent injection mouldings defects Understand root causes & address with suitable remedies Control procedures to achieve zero defects in moulding Understanding the importance of mould / die design during product design Importance of process simulation during die design
