These tools include mold-filling
simulations to study fill patterns (including predicted
pack and cooling) of the geometry and predict knit
line locations at resin flow fronts to help ensure you
are directing the best fiber alignment (strength) in
the highest stress areas that your product endures
when in use.
Our
onsite technical support team is here to help with
process development, mold design suggestions,
material training, troubleshooting, and continuous
improvement.
Let us walk you through:
Optimizing the LFT Molding Processes
• Ensuring proper drying and preparation of the
material (review of drying equipment)
• Processing guidance for the specific grade
(temperature and pressure suggestions)
• Primary process development (including runner
& gate geometry)
• Secondary operation process development
• Tooling debugging/optimization, especially if the
injection mold is new
Troubleshooting
• Failure analysis/issue resolution (including
pyrolysis/burn-off reviews to study internal fiber
structure and length)
• Process/mold support to perfect finished goods
• Equipment review
Training
• Polymers fundamentals training
• Design guidance for LFT
IN-HOUSE PROTOTYPING SUPPORT
Our 55,000 square foot Application Development
Center is most often leveraged for new program
prototyping and R&D trials.

HVAC doors are typically produced by injection molding
two parts that provide structural strength and air
sealing performance.
This global reach
also allowed Avient to respond quickly to mold trials,
and eliminate import and shipping challenges.
Avient engineered a new customized formulation for the
part, which provided both the processability required
for extremely short cycle injection-compression
molding, as well as including an additive to stabilize
the material when in contact with copper.

Viscosity changes also influence other process parameters, such as hold time in the mold and temperature profiles, impacting the total cycle time of the process
Ensure that cooling in the molds is operating efficiently and is balanced, and plan on revising the injection and temperature profiles
Maintaining brand color equity, part dimensions, and mechanical properties are areas of concern when PCR is included at 30% or more in the molded part.
https://www.avient.com/knowledge-base/article/exploring-world-fluoropolymers?ind[]=6601
Most fluoropolymers, other than PTFE and polyvinyl fluoride (PVF), can be melt processed using conventional thermoplastic extrusion or molding techniques.
PTFE can be applied as a coating, extruded as a paste, or molded using compression molding or metal powder-processing techniques.
