        Injection molding is one of the common processes for producing plastic parts. In this process, the mold is filled immediately and then the part and mold will be cooled down during the packing time. In the end, the part will be ejected from the mold. In this study, the effects of the most important processing parameters such as packing time, melt and mold temperature have been investigated on shrinkage and warpage of the products experimentally and numerically. According to previous reports, a thin sheet is defined by a length to thickness ratio of at least 100. MOLDFLOW software has been utilized to obtain the numerical results. For the empirical study, 64 specimens have been produced in different production conditions. These samples have been scanned by a 3D scanner and results have been analyzed by CATIA software. The findings show that increasing melt and mold temperature decreases the warpage amount and rises the shrinkage in the specimens. Also increasing the packing time up to 2 seconds increases the warpage and decreases the shrinkage noticeably but in longer packing times the variations will be less remarkable. Moreover, findings show that the general trend in simulated and experimental results are similar in all reported values of shrinkage and warpage, in which the maximum calculated errors for both of them are approximately 10%. تفاصيل المقالة

        Injection molding is one of the most common processes which are used for manufacturing different plastic parts. This method includes 3 continuous steps: filling of the mold, cooling and driving the part out. A wide range of plastic and Non-Plastic materials can be used as raw material in this process. One of the most important advantages of this way of production is that it is very economic. In this study packing time & melt temperature effects on shrinkage of a thin sheet made of wood- HDPE composite has been investigated. Based on previous works, defining a thin sheet means the ratio of length to thickness of it should be at least 100. The results were obtained after manufacturing of different pieces and 3D scanning using CATIA software package. Finally the results were represented and compared using EXCEL. Main parameters such as packing time and melt temperature were studied in 4 levels. The method used for designing of experiments is full factorial. The main goals in this study were to reduce the number of defected parts and recommend appropriate process parameters to producethin sheetsmade of wood-HDPE composite. Having this information will result in saving time and reducing the production costs. It has been seen that by increasing the packing time and lowering the temperature, the shrinkage was reduced. تفاصيل المقالة
