Mold Flow Analysis

What is Moldflow?

Moldflow simulation software lets you troubleshoot problems with plastic injection and compression molding. Advanced tools and a simplified user interface help you address manufacturing challenges, such as part warpage, cooling channel efficiency, and cycle time reduction. This software simulates your mold conditions before you pay money for tooling. A accurate mold is one of the key to have quality injection parts, so moldlow is one analysis that are quite important testing to make the plastic injection mold from good to excellence.

Is Moldfow necessary for every application?

MoldFlow is not necessary to use on every application, based on the product geometry, tolerance requirements and if the raw material is unusual or not, we will make suggestions for the inclusion of flow analysis costs into the program.
