Molding system for preparing fiberless thermoplastic composite article

Abstract

The present disclosure provides a molding system for preparing an injection-molded fiberless plastic article. The molding system includes a molding machine; a mold disposed on the molding machine; a processing module configured to generate an anisotropic viscosity distribution of the fiberless molding resin in the mold cavity; and a controller coupled to the processing module. The mold has a mold cavity for being filled with a fiberless molding resin including a plurality of polymer chains. The processing module is configured to generate the anisotropic viscosity distribution based on a molding condition for the molding machine and based in part on consideration of an orientation effect of the plurality of polymer chains. The controller is configured to control the molding machine with the molding condition using the generated anisotropic viscosity distribution of the fiberless molding resin to perform an actual molding process for preparing the injection-molded fiberless plastic article.
