MACHINE DESIGN INJECTION MOLDING SIMPLE TO USE SOFTWARE SOLIDWORKS

Abstract

Injection molding is a way to make a product from plastic material, about 30% of all plastic components are produced with injection stamps and 80% of engineering plastic products are manufactured with injections. The working principle of injection molding starts with filling, then packing, cooling and the laststep is output. Injection molding machines are generally large-scale in the market, making them less effectivefor making small-sized products. Design injection molding using solidworks software and for analysis using Ansys software. Thermal analysis is used to analyze the heat as a test used to look at the chemical, physical, and structural changes of materials due to temperature changes so that the highest distribution of temperature on the surface of a barrel occurs at the surface between the barrel and the heater, which is 300,55°C, and well below the melting temperature limit of 903 K. Statistic simulation is a type of constant decomposition, used to describe a system where time is not affected by failure. The calculations showed thehighest voltage of 9.17 Mpa at a load of 1000 N, still below the yield strength of 178 Mpa. The injection pressure obtained was 54 bar with an injections time of 2.03 seconds, a shrinkage of 0.269, and a glass weight of 15.05 grams.
