•Investigate the influences of various coolant designs on molding process and product qualities, including shrinkage, warpage, Reynolds number, etc.

•Revise the existing mold/product design in a good way.

•Realize the roots of problems and trouble-shoot easily.

•Accumulate knowledge to make it as know-how and become design criteria.

The fiber-reinforced composite products with stiffness properties are usually superior to those of unreinforced polymer products. In recent years, fiber-reinforced thermoplastics have been a popular technology in the field of injection molding. A lot of automobile plastic parts are made by fiber-reinforced engineering plastic due to the superior mechanical properties and heat distortion temperature. Since the reinforced composites have anisotropic properties, the injection molding process of fiber-reinforced thermoplastics became more complicated. The thermal and mechanics properties of the composite strongly depend on the fiber orientation pattern. The property of the composite is stronger in the fiber orientation direction and weaker in the transverse direction. However, at the same time, the thermal shrinkage effect is larger in transverse direction and lower in fiber orientation direction. The molded product may have high internal stress and warpage at unexpected locations. Therefore, during the design phase of a new product, we must consider the processing details comprehensively to understand the fiber orientation and warpage behaviors.
