If
the material is shear-sensitive, consult the
material data sheet or processing guide for
instructions to set recovery time
• The cooling time should only be 1–2 seconds
longer than the screw recovery time, unless
dictated by dimensional stability or part
thickness
Minimize Clamp Pressure
This step is done to reduce the amount of energy
used by the machine
Shot Size = 1.00 + .10 =
1.10, Transfer Position = .50 + .10 = .60
Set Safeties
This step is to ensure the machine will alarm
and alert nearby employees if the machine
malfunctions, or if a part gets stuck
Very difficult to resolve through processing
Root cause: Nominal wall thickness is not maintained or uneven cooling.

They also eliminate the need for secondary coating or wetting processes to achieve equivalent performance while reducing production costs.
Based in polysulfone resins, they provide ultra-high-heat resistance and performance without compromising safety while also responding to the needs of extended shelf life.
This cutting-edge tool offers an important data point for the carbon footprint of Avient’s materials so customers can better understand the environmental impact of products, meet sustainability goals, and navigate the complex landscape of reducing carbon emissions.
