To ensure the highest level of quality to our customers, each mold is validated during the pre-production phase of a project. Our degreed process engineers will optimize the molding process to determine nominal injection pressure, fill time, hold pressure, and cycle time. In fact, our process engineers are trained by RJG through their rigorous Master Molder program. Once the process has been optimized, our process engineers establish high and low limits for each critical parameter to develop a robust process window.
Although each mold and material has its own unique characteristics, there are similarities among them. Monitoring the pressure within the cavity is critical throughout production, regardless of the part size or cavitation. Therefore, Plastikos utilizes eDART technology coupled with cavity pressure sensors in order to monitor shot-to-shot consistency during production. This automated method of inspection provides 100% monitoring and traceability on the parts produced from a particular tool for the life of the project.
