MPI/OPTIM Process Optimization
MPI/OPTIM Automatically determines optimum processing conditions for machine set up, directly linking plastics CAE analysis to the injection molding machine.
What does MPI/OPTIM do ? • Automatically determines optimum processing conditions used for machine setting • Results tailored to machine • Results entered directly onto machine
MPI/OPTIM - Features • Optimizes Ram velocity profile • Optimizes Holding pressure profile • Calculates stroke length • Results can be directly entered into the molding machine • Considers ‘real world’ constraints • molding machine parameters • mold geometry • polymer characteristics
MPI/OPTIM - Benefits • Fast Mold Set Up and Commissioning • defines processing conditions for mold, machine and polymer • Embedded Knowledge & Experience • automates machine & mold set up • Linked Design & Production • User Defined Quality Parts • acceptance criterion defined by user • consistant part quality
Key Issues Addressed • What is the optimum polymer injection profile ? • What is the optimum packing profile ?
