Abstract

Injection molding process is the one of the most important processes for the production of plastic parts which offers many advantages to alternatives manufacturing methods, including minimal losses from scrap and minimal finishing requirements. To develop a new plastic product, an injection molding machine requires a new injection mould. The current process to develop a mold for the injection molding needed well knowledge, high cost, time consuming and required experience tool and mould makers. The try an error method were still used as method to overcome the problem arise in injection molding. Usually, the mold will be test on injection molding machine and at that time, all the problem and defect at the product will be defined. However, in order to overcome the problem, there were high cost and time consuming to do the modification to the mold or find the suitable injection molding parameter. In this project, a systematic way was introduced which used several application of CAD/CAE and CAM to develop a mold. CAE software such as Moldflow has been used to find the suitable injection parameter and mold design. Several defects were identified and solved without any modification to the mold.
