Effects of process parameters in plastic, metal, and ceramic injection molding processes

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

Plastic injection molding has been widely used in the past and is a dominant forming approach today. As the customer demands require materials with better engineering properties that were not feasible with polymers, powder injection molding with metal and ceramic powders has received considerable attention in recent decades. To better understand the differences in the plastic injection molding, metal injection molding, and ceramic injection molding, the effects of the core process parameters on the process performances has been studied using the state-of-the-art computer-aided engineering (CAE) design tool, PIMSolver The design of experiments has been conducted using the Taguchi method to obtain the relative contributions of various process parameters onto the successful operations.
