MP '2079851475616104452 insufficient flow length ratio
Problem Phenomenon
MP injection flow length ratio only 80-100, below 150, thin-wall products cannot be filled
Cause Analysis
MP melt viscosity high, flow distance short; injection temperature low; injection pressure insufficient; mold runner resistance large
Solution
1) raise injection temperature to 150-170°C; 2) raise injection pressure 80-100MPa; 3) enlarge runner and gate size to reduce resistance; 4) add 0.3-0.5wt% flow aid to reduce viscosity
Key Takeaway
insufficient flow length ratio is caused by MP high viscosity; high temperature, high pressure and large gate are key
