Flash/burrs appearing on polypropylene injection molded products
Fenómeno del problema
Flake-like overflow material appears at the parting line, ejector pin holes, slider joints, etc. of the product, that is, flash or burrs.
Flash affects appearance and dimensional accuracy, increases post-processing workload, and in severe cases causes the product to stick in the mold and makes demolding difficult.
Análisis de la causa
（1）The clamping force is insufficient, and the mold is pushed open by the melt pressure during injection, producing a gap
（2）The injection pressure is too high or the holding pressure is too large, exceeding the mold clamping force
（3）The mold parting line is worn or fits poorly, with gaps
（4）The barrel temperature is too high, the melt viscosity is low and the flowability is too good, making overflow easy
（5）The mold venting groove is too deep, and the melt overflows into the venting groove to form flash
Solución
（1）Check and increase the clamping force to ensure the clamping force is greater than 1.2-1.5 times the melt pressure in the cavity
（2）Appropriately reduce the injection pressure and holding pressure, using the lowest pressure under the premise of ensuring quality
（3）Lower the barrel temperature to the lower value within the range of 200-280°C to increase the melt viscosity
（4）Check the mold parting line, re-grind the clamping surface, and ensure the gap is less than 0.02mm
（5）Check the venting groove depth; the venting groove depth for polyolefin materials does not exceed 0.03mm
Conclusión clave
Flash is a manifestation of mismatch between the mold clamping force and the injection pressure, and needs to be controlled from three aspects: clamping force, injection pressure, and mold precision.
