Much Setup Scrap for PEEK First Articles
Fenómeno do problema
Each mold change and startup of PEEK requires dozens of shots to produce qualified parts, high-priced raw material is seriously wasted, and setup cost even exceeds mold cost.
Análise das causas
PEEK has a narrow process window, and the multiple parameters of temperature, pressure, and speed are strongly coupled, making trial-and-error setup extremely inefficient; without process data accumulation, every setup starts from scratch.
Solução
①Preset the initial process based on Moldflow simulation; ②Establish standard process cards to accumulate historical parameters; ③Sort and recycle setup scrap for downgraded use; ④Use cavity sensing technology to shorten the stabilization time.
Conclusão principal
PEEK setup cost must be hedged with data-based management; process cards and simulation analysis are the core tools for reducing trial and error; every kilogram of scrap is a loss of real money.
