Computer Aided Plastic Part Design and Analysis

The design of injection die on the upper cover of clamshell phone is introduced. The dual-plate die has side gate for opposite glue injection, the parts are ejected by ejector pin, the side reversed buckle contains three blocks, the reversed buckle at flip shaft consists of two inner sliders, and all the eight inner reversed buckles are made up of inclined pushing rods, and the cooling system embraces "U" shaped cooling waterway. Its application in practice has proved the reasonable die structure, smooth remolding, and qualified plastic part design.

Aided Design

This paper provides a design technique of support for being applied in fast fabrication on plastic prototype, the plastic part developed through the computer aided design (CAD) can be rapidly fabricated by a CNC machining center without needs of any specific jigs or fixtures, the function provided is similar to a rapid prototyping (RP) machine used for fabricating the sampling part. By the testing result, the provided design technique of support can not only be applied in the part required for a dual-surface (or multiple-surface) processing, but also applicable for fabricating the part having thin housing. As such, this paper provides another economical and efficient option besides the RP.

AbstractThis paper presents a new smart web platform for plastic injection molds for use in industry 4.0 environments. The new platform requires as its only input the CAD model of the plastic part in a discrete format, the accuracy of the analysis, the thermoplastic material of which the part will be manufactured and the number of parts to manufacture per year. Using this information and through a fully automated process based on hybrid algorithms developed by the authors the smart platform generates an extended CAD model of the mold with additional expert information useful for industry 4.0 environments. In this way, it is possible to design a mold with uniform heat transfer, balanced ejection and a uniform filling phase of the mold cavity. The presented platform differ from other applications for mold designing in that the resulting mold meets all the geometric, functional and technological requirements of mold designing without needing CAE simulation software for its validation. The presented platform is considered as the first smart platform that does not require the interaction of the designer in the process of dimensioning and designing the different subsystems that compound the mold, being a tool to reduce time and costs in the initial phases of plastic part design and with the ability to integrate into a flexible manufacturing environment 4.0.
