- Injection Location PropertyManager
Injection locations introduce polymer material at the specified melt temperature into the cavity.
- Control Valve PropertyManager
Valve gate systems, which are operated pneumatically or hydraulically, can be used with hot runners to open and close the gate, and control the filling and packing of the injection-molded part.
- Mold Wall Temperature PropertyManager
As an alternative to a full mold cooling analysis, the Mold Wall Temperature boundary condition allows you to define a temperature field that varies over the surface of the cavity.
- Clamp Force PropertyManager
You can use the Clamp Force PropertyManager to set up the clamp force direction. You can also exclude regions of a model from the calculation of clamp force.
- Symmetry Face PropertyManager
The Symmetry Face boundary condition identifies surfaces of cavities and runner domains that belong to planes of symmetry. With this feature, you can avoid simulating both cavities in a symmetrical mold layout, saving simulation time.
- Air Vents PropertyManager
Air vents allow air to escape from a cavity as the melted polymer fills the mold.
- Exclude from Warp PropertyManager
Warp analysis predicts the final shape and dimensions of a part, after an injection molding machine ejects it from the mold and it is fully cooled.
- Filled Hot Runner PropertyManager
The Filled Hot Runner boundary condition identifies heated components of a runner system. At the start of the Filling simulation, these sections of a runner are considered filled with hot polymer.
- Coolant Input
The Coolant Input boundary condition defines multiple inlets and outlets for complex cooling circuits.
- Local Gravity PropertyManager
The Local Gravity boundary condition specifies the orientation of the gravity vector during Warp analysis. This option is available with the multi material overmolding injection process.
