(Ⅲ) How to deal with flow marks on injection-molded parts?
2024-09-27
Mold temperature too low Cause: The low mold temperature causes the molten plastic to cool too quickly in the runner, preventing full fusion. Solution: Increase the mold temperature to ensure the molten plastic flows smoothly and fuses completely. Injection speed too slow Cause: Slow injection speed causes the plastic to flow slowly, extending cooling time and forming weld lines. Solution: Increas...
