Duration of the first stage of packing, during which pressure is applied to the injection locations as the melt in the mold cools and shrinks.
The program calculates the default value based on part geometry and material properties.
The pressure holding time is the interval between the packing switch point and the packing end point. The control type changes to pressure control after the packing switch point,
and the pressure profile of inlet is then based on the proportion of packing time and injection pressure.
The first stage of packing will automatically end if the polymer flow rate becomes nearly zero, and any remaining Pressure Holding Time will be added to the Pure Cooling Time to determine the new duration of the second stage of packing. Polymer flow rate is monitored at the interface between the runner and cavity domains, or at the injection locations if no runner domain has been defined. The criteria for nearly zero flow rate is satisfied when the rate of change of part mass falls below 0.01% per second.
