Molding system for preparing fiber-reinforced thermoplastic composite article

A molding system for preparing a fiber-reinforced thermoplastic composite article, comprising:

• a molding machine;
• a mold disposed on the molding machine and having a mold cavity for being filled with a composite molding material including a polymeric resin and a plurality of fibers;
• a processing module configured to generate an anisotropic stress distribution of the composite molding material in the mold cavity based on a molding condition for the molding machine, wherein the anisotropic stress distribution of the composite molding resin is generated based in part on consideration of an anisotropic degree of the fibers in the composite molding material;
• and
• a controller coupled to the computing apparatus and configured to control the molding machine with the molding condition to perform an actual molding for the fiber-reinforced thermoplastic composite article.
