Moldex3D’s Exclusive Patented Technology for Material Pressure Dependency Viscosity Measurement Helps Obtain a More Accurate Warp Prediction

When molding ultra-thin wall plastic parts, high injection speed is required to ensure a complete filling of the cavity. However, high injection speed tends to cause high filling pressure which will result in the compression of the free volume of polymer chains; therefore, the viscosity will get higher and the flow resistance will increase.
