Long PLA '2079851475616104452 cycle (slow cooling)
Problem Phenomenon
The PLA '2079851475616104452 cycle is too long, affecting production capacity.
Cause Analysis
PLA releases heat during cooling crystallization and has a low thermal conductivity, so it cools slowly; the crystalline type needs a longer time.
Solution
Optimize the mold cooling design; lower the melt temperature; use amorphous PLA to shorten the cycle.
Key Takeaway
The slow cooling of PLA is a constraint on production efficiency.
