Hi, just a simple question : are cycle times completely dependant on the cooling times?As in, if i am getting complete, good quality products with maybe microscopic flash, or mark, can i still reduce cycle time? As in, is there any scope of reducing the cycle times, with the same machine, same chiller plant, and same screw. without changing the cooling times. I kno cooling time can drastically affect my cycle time. But what i want ot know is, are there any other process parameters too, which i can change without affecting my Quality of parts? can you please enlist a few? IP: Logged |

The melt temperature developed by the plasticating unit can affect the cycle time. Lower temperature melt requires less cooling time.
