Effects of Plastic Injection Moulding Process Parameters on Material Elastic Modulus on Complex Geometry and Parameter Optimization for Getting Maximum Stiffness
Abstract
Plastic injection is widely used in white goods sector in case of highly production rates, low transformation costs and recyclability of products. There are many parameters affecting on the quality, dimensional stability and mechanical strength in plastic injection process. In washing machine tubs which are exposed to dynamic loads during spinning, it is necessary to optimize process parameters. In this research; packing pressure, packing transition point, packing time and injection time is optimized by using Box Behnken methodology via Moldlfow elastic modulus outputs and structural analyses results. Optimum process parameters are obtained to achieve best material orientation.
