In the fast-paced world of plastic product manufacturing, reducing cycle time without compromising quality is critical. Moldex3D, a cutting-edge simulation solution for injection moulding, empowers manufacturers to optimize each phase of the moulding cycle—ultimately driving down costs and improving efficiency.
Moldex3D provides a precise virtual replica of the entire moulding process, including filling, packing, cooling, and warpage. By simulating real-world conditions, it allows engineers to identify and eliminate bottlenecks before tooling even begins.
Cooling time often accounts for over 60% of the total cycle time. Moldex3D’s cooling analysis helps optimize cooling channel layouts, spot uneven cooling, and improve heat dissipation efficiency—leading to shorter and more consistent cycle times.
With built-in Design of Experiments (DOE) and optimization features, Moldex3D enables users to test multiple process parameter combinations in less time. It identifies the ideal processing window to minimize cycle time while maintaining product quality.
By evaluating different materials, gate locations, and runner systems, Moldex3D supports better decision-making that can significantly reduce the fill and packing time in the molding cycle.
With cycle time optimization through simulation, manufacturers avoid expensive trial-and-error runs, reduce scrap rates, and accelerate their product development timelines.
