Q
what is a short shot in injection molding
I'm a seasoned industrial engineer with a keen interest in machine learning. Here to share insights on latest industry trends.
A short shot in injection molding occurs when the molten plastic does not fill the entire cavity of the mold, resulting in a partially formed product. This defect can be caused by several factors, including inadequate material volume, insufficient injection pressure or speed, and improper temperature settings of the plastic or the mold. The resultant incomplete parts are usually unsalvageable, leading to wasted materials and potential project delays. Addressing a short shot involves troubleshooting the molding process by adjusting the parameters mentioned, ensuring the mold is correctly designed for optimal flow, and possibly utilizing flow analysis software to preemptively identify flow issues.
