Q

ABS heat-resistant grade processing

A

The mold temperature management of ABS heat-resistant grade is performance assurance; boundary evaluation ensures application; verification ensures long-term.; after confirming effectiveness, fix the parameters and practices into the work instruction to prevent recurrence

Q

ABS gate 50/60 rule

A

The 50/60 rule of ABS gates is a design standard; position and size both emphasized; ensuring feeding prevents sink marks.; after confirming effectiveness, fix the parameters and practices into the work instruction to prevent recurrence

Q

ABS draft angle 1.5-2°

A

ABS draft angle is a design specification; textured surface compensation; ejection and surface both emphasized.; after confirming effectiveness, fix the parameters and practices into the work instruction to prevent recurrence

Q

ABS shrinkage rate 0.4-0.7

A

ABS low uniform shrinkage is a dimensional accuracy advantage; mold design is precise; verification ensures accuracy.; after confirming effectiveness, fix the parameters and practices into the work instruction to prevent recurrence

Q

ABS mold temperature 50-80

A

The 50-80°C of ABS mold temperature and high-gloss 60-90°C are standards; the 60°C lower limit and 90°C upper limit are boundaries; balance optimizes quality and efficiency.; after confirming effectiveness, fix the parameters and practices into the work instruction to prevent recurrence

Q

ABS glass fiber orientation type warpage

A

GF-ABS orientation-type warpage is broken by 'gate design', not by hard pressing with cooling: once the warpage direction is fixed, you should go back and review the gate and orientation, rather than repeatedly trying mold temperatures.

Q

ABS nozzle drool and cold slug marks

A

ABS drool and cold slug marks often have the 'same source': for drool, first lower the nozzle temperature and add suck-back; cold slug marks rely on the cold slug well to catch the front cold material; both point to nozzle temperature and cold material management.

Q

ABS mold sticking (difficult demolding)

A

For ABS mold sticking, first 'reduce pressure and temperature', then 'repair the draft angle and polishing', and finally deal with vacuum adsorption; the polishing quality along the demolding direction often affects the demolding feel more than the draft angle.

Q

ABS brittle cracking——product structure stress concentration

A

A sharp corner in the ABS structure is the starting point of a crack: rounded corners, uniform wall thickness, and reasonable reinforcing ribs are the three structural means to prevent brittleness; many 'material brittleness' cases are actually mines buried by the design, and must be removed from...

Q

ABS brittle cracking——draft angle and insert problems

A

ABS's draft angle and insert preheating are often overlooked: insufficient draft angle plus forced ejection = cracking, no insert preheating = interface stress cracking; these two details of structural parts must be fixed at the design stage.
