Analysis of Optimal Injection Moulding Process Parameters for Thin-Shell Plastic Product Using Response Surface Methodology

Abstract

The injection molding process is used to produce thin-walled plastic products for a wide variety of applications. However, the difficulty in adjusting optimum process parameters setting may cause defects on injected moulded parts such as shrinkage. A study was conducted for the determination of the optimal

Application of Statistical Design of Experiments to Performance Analysis of Charcoal Cooks Stoves

“…The most commonly used statistical method is design of experiments (DOE), to predict the relationship between the responses and independent variables, especially if there is a need to optimize the responses of a process [26]. Now, there is a growing body of literature documenting the application of design of experiment (DOE) for process optimization [27]- [32]. Hence, this present paper aimed to evaluate the individual and interactive effect of some parameters such as stove type (stove with secondary inlet or without); fuel type, fuel initial load and venting that are likely to affect performance of charcoal cook stoves in terms of thermal efficiency and emissions.…”

Optimization of Plastics Injection Molding Process using Response surface Methodology

“…Sokkalingam Rajalingam [2] has worked on the Optimization of Injection Molding Process Parameters by Response Surface Methods in this study the authors have used RSM to optimize the quality characteristics by determining the most appropriate and accurate molding process parameters setting. Bano et al [1] has used RSM in injection molding and he has taken mold temperature, injection and refilling speed and these parameters have been found to reduce the rejection levels.S. M. Nasir, K. A. Ismail, and Z. Shayful [3] they have studied emphases on the analysis of plastic injection moulding process and it is simulated by using Autodesk Moldflow Insight (AMI) software the authors have tried to reduce shrinkage by optimizing the process parameters here 2 types of gates which is single and dual gates have been analyzed in this study.…”
