Injection Molding Parameters

Processing Parameters Recommended Range Remarks
Barrel Temperature (Rear) 160‑180℃ Feeding zone, prevent material bridging
Barrel Temperature (Middle) 180‑220℃ Compression zone, preliminary melting
Barrel Temperature (Front) 200‑240℃ Metering zone, melt homogenization
Nozzle Temperature 200‑240℃
Mold Temperature 50‑95℃ Affect cooling rate, crystallinity and surface finish
Injection Pressure 70‑105 MPa Adjust according to part complexity
Holding Pressure 50%‑80% of injection pressure Reduce shrinkage and sink marks
Screw Speed 50‑100 rpm Avoid excessive shear heat
