Problems with mechanical or optical properties often occur during the manufacture of injection molded products. The obvious first step is to look for the cause in the injection molding cycle or in the tool used. The KTP will help you troubleshoot and develop an optimal concept for your requirements.
Another important aspect is the plasticizing unit, which, if incorrectly designed, is often the cause of the above-mentioned impairments. Specifically, this can involve solid inclusions or color differences. By analyzing the melt homogeneity, the institute can advise you on the design of the plasticizing unit. As a software tool, the engineers use the in-house application PSI, with which all necessary design parameters can be simulated, analysed and then the geometry of the screw can be optimized. In addition, the design can be verified by a series of measurements in the processing laboratory, for example.
