Universal TestPak-Injection Molding of Isotropic Materials
Test ID
U-060
Description
The Universal Molding TestPak is intended to provide test data and material models that can be used in a wide range of injection molding softwares. These include Autodesk Moldflow, Moldex3D, Simpoe-Mold, and SOLIDWORKS Plastics. This TestPak includes all the testing to perform all phases of the injection molding process: Filling, Pack/Cool, and Warp/Shrink. The material models provided are for non-fiber filled materials only, please see TestPak U-061 for fiber filled materials. This TestPak provides Moldflow Gold-Gold-Gold .udb files. TestPak U-063 must be added for GMW16355.
Included Tests
| 1x | D-020 | PVT (Isothermal Heating) |
| 3x | R-011 | Capillary Rheology (1 Temperature) |
| 1x | T-303 | Thermal Expansion Coefficient by TMA |
| 1x | M-101 | Poisson’s Ratio and Tensile Modulus |
| 1x | Z-998 | Data Analysis |

| 1x | T-103 | Thermal Conductivity Scan |
| 1x | Z-998 | Data Analysis (Injection molding) |
Options
Additional CRIMS testing can be added with TestPak U-063. Additional properties for SIGMASOFT can be added with TestPak U-064. Bagley correction test data for Juncture Loss calculation in Moldflow can be added through U-065 TestPak.
Samples
: 2 kg of pellets
[details]: 10 tensile bars
[details]Application
This TestPak is used to characterize materials for full simulation of the injection molding process: Filling Packing, Shrink/Warp. This Testpak provides data, models, and input files for use in Autodesk Moldflow, Moldex3D, Simpoe-Mold, and SOLIDWORKS Plastics. The models can used in 3D simulations inside Autodesk Moldflow but cannot be used in 2D simulations that require CRIMS models.
