Most of the current numerical solutions are based on finite-element/finite-difference/boundary-element/volume-control methods and the surface model. This paper discusses the development of an integrated CAE system for injection molding in detail, and presents the mathematics for numerical simulation of filling, packing, cooling, stress and warpage in injection molding. The developed system named as HsCAE3D is introduced at the end.展开更多

The effect of barrel （melt） temperature on the morphology, thermal behavior and the resultant mechanical properties of the injection molded bars was the research focus, and the influence of LLDPE composition was also taken into account. It was found that the mechanical properties, especially the tensile ductility and the impact strength, were greatly affected by the processing temperature. The samples obtained at low temperatures had the highest elongation at break and impact strength, while those molded at high temperatures had the poorest toughness. Two reasons were responsible for that： first, the phase size in the samples increased with the processing temperature; second, possible orientation existed in the samples obtained at low processing temperatures.展开更多

Co-injection molding has been realized between met-als and ceramics on micro components,which become the first breakthrough within the PIM field. Combined with the prominent characteristics of high features/cost ratio,micro powder injection molding becomes a potential technique for large scale production of intricate and three-dimensional micro components or micro-structured components in microsystems technology (MST) field.展开更多

For preparation of injection-molded bars with high-level orientation and good interfacial adhesion, a dynamic packing injection molding technology was applied to exert oscillatory shear on the melts during solidification stage. Depending on incorporated component, interfacial adhesion and processing conditions, various oriented structure and morphology could be obtained. First, we will elucidate the epitaxial behavior between PP and high-density polyethylene occurring in practical molded processing. Then, the shear-induced transcrystalline structure will be the main focus for PP/fiber composites. At last, various oriented clay structures have been ascertained unambiguously in PP/organoclay nanocomposites along the thickness of molded bars.展开更多

The waveform functions of non-sinusoidal oscillation were determined, and the calculation method and curves of technological parameters for non-sinusoidal oscillation were given. At the case of waveform deviation factor a equal to 0.31 and oscillation amplitude h equal to ±2.7 mm, the relationship between oscillation frequency and casting speed is determined, and the technological parameters for non-sinusoidal oscillation are calculated. The testing results of industrial application indicated that this technique could not only improve the Slab surface quality, but also reduce the steel breakout.展开更多

The working principle of the non-sinusoidal oscillator was analyzed and the model of the oscillator was validated via simulation software.Then,taking advantage of resonance technology,the hinging force and moment were calculated. The results showed that the hinging force and driving moment reduced,which was useful in reducing the impact of the hinge and prolonging the service life of the bearing. Besides,the best initial spring pressure was 0. 9 times the mold gravity,which improved the oscillation system stability and reduced the load fluctuation and servomotor driving power.展开更多
