(1)介紹
塑料工業(yè)是當(dāng)今世界上發(fā)展最快的行業(yè)之一,列為數(shù)十億美元的產(chǎn)業(yè)。注塑件的需求逐年增加,塑料注射成型過程是眾所周知的最有效及高效經(jīng)濟(jì)地生產(chǎn)制造技術(shù)的各種形狀和低成本[1]幾何形狀復(fù)雜的精密塑件。塑料注射成型過程是一個(gè)循環(huán)的親塞斯在聚合物注入模具型腔,和固化,形成一個(gè)塑料部分。有三個(gè)重要的階段,在每個(gè)斜面賽揚(yáng)。第一階段的鈴腔在注入高溫熔體熱聚合物(鈴和后鈴期)。其次是帶走了聚合物的熱的冷卻通道(冷卻階段),最后凝固部分彈出(射血期)。冷卻階段是最重要的因?yàn)樗囊饬x明顯影響了生產(chǎn)效率和產(chǎn)品質(zhì)量的。這是眾所周知的,比在注射成型過程中的周期時(shí)間的百分之七十是花在冷卻熱聚體融化后地使部分可以彈出無任何意義傾斜變形[2]。有效的冷卻系統(tǒng)設(shè)計(jì)冷卻通道以減少周期時(shí)間必須盡量減少縮痕等缺陷,不均勻收縮,熱熱殘余應(yīng)力組合和翹曲變形。后填滿型腔注塑成型和冷卻階段,熱熔融聚合物接觸冷模壁,和一個(gè)固體層上形成壁。
當(dāng)物質(zhì)冷卻下來,堅(jiān)實(shí)的皮膚開始隨時(shí)間的冷卻,直到整個(gè)材料的凝固成長。多年來,許多研究對(duì)優(yōu)化問題的冷卻系統(tǒng)布置在注塑成型工藝優(yōu)化及相變已通過各種形式的研究和的聚焦強(qiáng)度在這些議題,將用于在我們的系統(tǒng)設(shè)計(jì)和驗(yàn)證的3–[6]。本文的主要目的是研究的冷卻通道的位置和截面形狀對(duì)模具和聚合物,溫度分布的影響,因此,他們對(duì)凝固陽離子度的聚合物的影響。一個(gè)短暫的模具冷卻分析使用一個(gè)T形塑料模具與類似尺寸[5]的有限體積法進(jìn)行的,如圖1所示。不同的冷卻通道的位置和形式的研究。

(2)數(shù)學(xué)模型
熔融聚合物的熱是通過強(qiáng)制對(duì)流對(duì)冷卻液進(jìn)行冷卻通道和通過自然對(duì)流在外模具表面的空氣帶走。冷卻液是通過由于信道在一個(gè)給定的流量和一個(gè)給定的溫度被認(rèn)為是恒定的整個(gè)長度的通道。在這項(xiàng)工作中,隨時(shí)間變化的二維模型被認(rèn)為是由空腔的整個(gè)計(jì)算域,模具和冷卻通道的表面。的模具和聚合物的T型循環(huán)瞬態(tài)溫度分布可以通過求解瞬態(tài)能量方程。
為了考慮到凝固,源項(xiàng)添加到相應(yīng)的吸熱或放熱[ 7 ]的能量方程,并考慮吸收或通過相變過程中的熱耗散。該技術(shù)是適用于固定節(jié)點(diǎn),在這種情況下,能量方程表示如下:

在FS(t)= 0 T _ TF,(全液相區(qū))0 _ FS _ 1,在t = TF(ISO熱相變區(qū)),F(xiàn)(t)= 1 T _ TF(全固態(tài)區(qū))。

(4)結(jié)果與討論
一個(gè)完整的二維隨時(shí)間變化的模具注塑冷卻分析是在圖1顯示的T型塑料模具和四的冷卻通道的一種板模模型進(jìn)行。由于對(duì)稱性,半模的建模與分析。所有的冷卻通道具有相同的尺寸和他們有10毫米每循環(huán)通道直徑。冷卻的操作參數(shù)和材料屬性列在TA和1和2,分別,他們被認(rèn)為是恒定的在所有的數(shù)值結(jié)果[7]。每個(gè)計(jì)算周期分為兩個(gè)階段,冷卻階段,腔內(nèi)充滿熱聚合物最初在聚合物注入溫度,噴射階段,腔內(nèi)充滿空氣的最初在環(huán)境溫度。無3和4顯示有16的模具冷卻時(shí)間地點(diǎn)時(shí)間模具溫度循環(huán)瞬態(tài)變化;(P1,P2,P3,P4)在模具壁和P5,P7模具內(nèi)的墻壁,分別為(圖1),在應(yīng)用的實(shí)例和不施加凝固凝固。它們是模擬的最初30個(gè)循環(huán)在循環(huán)冷卻通道的位置的情況下(A5,D3)如圖2所示。我們發(fā)現(xiàn),模擬計(jì)算結(jié)果與循環(huán)模具溫度變化[ 5中描述的瞬態(tài)特性的好協(xié)議]。它被發(fā)現(xiàn)有一個(gè)稍微不同的溫度值的兩個(gè)結(jié)果之間,從而導(dǎo)致數(shù)值方法和精度在數(shù)值計(jì)算中的差異。數(shù)據(jù)顯示,相對(duì)地靠近型腔表面溫度波動(dòng)是最大和減少離型腔表面。我們發(fā)現(xiàn),最大的溫度波動(dòng)的振幅在穩(wěn)定的周期可以不施加凝固在應(yīng)用凝固15例LC達(dá)到10 LC。
a.冷卻通道形成的影響
一個(gè)有效的冷卻系統(tǒng)設(shè)計(jì)提供溫度分布均勻的整個(gè)部分在冷卻過程中應(yīng)防止收縮內(nèi)應(yīng)力,保證產(chǎn)品質(zhì)量,和脫模的問題。證明的冷卻通道形成的溫度分布在模具和產(chǎn)品的凝固過程的影響,我們提出三種不同截面形式的冷卻通道,圓形,方形,長與寬0.25比0.5和2比r矩形寬度。兩起案件進(jìn)行了研究;第一種情況,所有的冷卻通道具有相同的橫截面面積,和第二種情況下,它們具有相同的周長。比較的是相同的冷卻通道的位置進(jìn)行(A5,D3)。

b.冷卻通道的位
討了冷卻通道的位置的影響,我們提出的位置分為四組,A組和B對(duì)底部冷卻通道的不同位置,與一個(gè)固定的PO的頂部冷卻通道位置,和反之亦然C、D組相同的冷卻通道(圓形)作為圖2所示。
圖8表示不同的冷卻通道的位置上的凝固率在A與B組第二十五冷卻周期結(jié)束的影響(降低冷卻通道的影響),C和D(上部冷卻通道效應(yīng))與冷卻時(shí)間。結(jié)果表明,較低的冷卻通道的位置效應(yīng),冷卻速度增加,因此增加的聚合物的凝固率在垂直方向上的冷卻通道的聚合物的方法(位置B有凝固率大于位置,并與相同的位置,C和D)。圖中顯示也最有效的冷卻速率得到冷卻通道需要20%和50%之間的位置,通過產(chǎn)品的長度為水平方向(B2和B5之間的位置或位置A2和A5已凝固的最大百分比)。當(dāng)我們比較凝固率對(duì)上位置C和D的不同的位置,我們發(fā)現(xiàn),作為信道的方法在水平方向上的凝固率增加產(chǎn)品,和冷卻速率迅速增加與較低的位置的效果比較。我們發(fā)現(xiàn),影響的冷卻通道的位置上的溫度分布和凝固的冷卻時(shí)間增加到更高的價(jià)值和對(duì)產(chǎn)品的冷卻速率的影響是不相同的不同位置降低。

(5)結(jié)論
變化的模具的溫度通過民誤碼率的成型周期進(jìn)行。模擬計(jì)算結(jié)果與循環(huán)模具溫度變化[5]中描述的瞬態(tài)特性和良好的協(xié)議發(fā)現(xiàn)稍有不同的溫度值的模擬結(jié)果和那些在[5]描述之間。冷卻通道的形態(tài)和溫度分布在整個(gè)聚合物和產(chǎn)品的固化陽離子位置的影響進(jìn)行了研究。結(jié)果表明,隨著冷卻通道,以產(chǎn)品的形式,冷卻速率是可以提高的。冷卻通道的位置對(duì)冷卻過程的溫度分布影響很大,通過模具和聚合物。結(jié)果表明,冷卻執(zhí)行不必要的最低冷卻時(shí)間達(dá)到最佳的溫度分布在整個(gè)產(chǎn)品的,和系統(tǒng)的布局必須進(jìn)行優(yōu)化以達(dá)到目標(biāo)。

2,存在問題及解決措施
首先,不能熟練的運(yùn)用Pro/E和CAD軟件,在做裝配圖過程中總是出現(xiàn)很多操作上的問題,一些常用的快捷鍵都不知道,致使初期有些工作無法正常進(jìn)行。
其次,對(duì)零件結(jié)構(gòu)的理解還不是很到位等。
還有,確定零件的結(jié)構(gòu)和尺寸以及模具設(shè)計(jì)中標(biāo)準(zhǔn)件的選用,缺少實(shí)際動(dòng)手能力對(duì)相關(guān)的零件的加工制造的工藝過程沒有很好的了解,在制作工藝卡片有很大問題。
然后,在設(shè)計(jì)裝配過程中未考慮冷卻系統(tǒng),冷卻系統(tǒng)的相關(guān)知識(shí)很欠缺,資料書的有關(guān)內(nèi)容沒有很好的讀懂和掌握。

1、 畢業(yè)設(shè)計(jì)(論文)綜述(題目背景、研究意義及國內(nèi)外相關(guān)研究情況)
1.1塑料注射模具的背景
塑料注射模具是成型塑料制件的一種重要工藝裝備,在塑料制品的生產(chǎn)中起著關(guān)鍵的作用。塑料模具工業(yè)從起步到現(xiàn)在,歷經(jīng)半個(gè)世紀(jì),有了很大發(fā)展,模具水平有了較大提高。成型工藝方面,多材質(zhì)塑料成型模、高效多色注射模、鑲件互換結(jié)構(gòu)和抽芯脫模機(jī)構(gòu)的創(chuàng)新設(shè)計(jì)方面也取得較大進(jìn)展。氣體輔助注射成型技術(shù)的使用更趨成熟,如青島海信模具有限公司、天津通信廣播公司模具廠家在29—34英寸電視機(jī)外殼以及一些厚壁零件的模具上運(yùn)用氣輔技術(shù),一些廠家還使用了C-MOLD氣輔軟件,取得較好的效果。如上海新普雷斯等公司就能為用戶提供氣輔成型設(shè)備及技術(shù)。
整體來看,中國塑料模具無論是在數(shù)量上,還是在質(zhì)量上、技術(shù)和能力等方面都有了很大的進(jìn)步,但是與國民經(jīng)濟(jì)發(fā)展的需求、世界先進(jìn)水平相比,差距仍很大。一些大型、復(fù)雜、長壽命的中高檔塑料模具每年仍需大量進(jìn)口。在總量供不應(yīng)求的同時(shí),一些低檔塑料模具確供過于求,市場(chǎng)競(jìng)爭(zhēng)激烈,還有一些技術(shù)含量不太高的中高檔塑料模具也有供過于求的趨勢(shì)。
1.2塑料注射模具的國際意思
加入WTO,給塑料模具產(chǎn)業(yè)帶來了巨大的挑戰(zhàn),同時(shí)帶來更多的機(jī)會(huì),由于中國塑料模具以中低檔產(chǎn)品為主,產(chǎn)品價(jià)格優(yōu)勢(shì)明顯,有些甚至只有國外價(jià)格的1∕5——1∕3。加入WTO后,國外同類產(chǎn)品對(duì)國內(nèi)沖擊不大,而中國中低檔模具的出口量則加大;在高精模具方面,加入WTO前本來就主要依靠進(jìn)口,加入WTO后,不僅為高精尖產(chǎn)品的進(jìn)口帶來了更多的便利,同時(shí)還促使更多外資來中國建廠,帶來國外先進(jìn)的模具技術(shù)和管理經(jīng)驗(yàn),對(duì)培養(yǎng)中國的專業(yè)模具人才起到了推動(dòng)作。
雖然 近幾年模具出口增幅大于進(jìn)口增幅,但所增加絕對(duì)量仍是進(jìn)口大于出口,至使模具外貿(mào)逆差逐年增大。這一狀況在2006年已得到改善,逆差略有減少。模具外貿(mào)逆差增大主要有兩方面原因:一是國民經(jīng)濟(jì)持續(xù)高速發(fā)展,特別是汽車產(chǎn)業(yè)的高速發(fā)展帶來了對(duì)模具的旺盛需求,有些高檔模具國內(nèi)實(shí)在生產(chǎn)不了,只好進(jìn)口;但確實(shí)也有一些模具國內(nèi)可以生產(chǎn),也可以進(jìn)口。這與中國現(xiàn)行的關(guān)稅政策及項(xiàng)目審批制度有關(guān)。二是對(duì)模具出口鼓勵(lì)不夠?,F(xiàn)在模具與其它機(jī)電產(chǎn)品一樣,出口退稅率只有13%,而未達(dá)17%。
1.3塑料注射模具的國內(nèi)情況
從市場(chǎng)情況來看,塑料模具生產(chǎn)企業(yè)應(yīng)重點(diǎn)發(fā)展那些技術(shù)含量高的大型、精密、復(fù)雜、壽命高的模具,并大力開發(fā)國際市場(chǎng),發(fā)展出口模具。隨著中國塑料工業(yè),特別是工程塑料的高速發(fā)展,可以預(yù)見,中國塑料模具的發(fā)展速度仍將繼續(xù)高于模具工業(yè)的整體發(fā)展速度,未來幾年年增長率仍將保持20%左右的水平。
近年來,港資、臺(tái)資、外資在中國大陸發(fā)展迅速,這些企業(yè)中大量自產(chǎn)自用塑料模具無確切的統(tǒng)計(jì)資料,因此未能進(jìn)入上述統(tǒng)計(jì)之中。
1.4塑料注射模具的研究意義
在科技發(fā)展中,人是第一要素,因此我們特別注意人才的培養(yǎng),實(shí)現(xiàn)產(chǎn)、學(xué)、研相結(jié)合,培養(yǎng)更多的模具人才,搞好技術(shù)創(chuàng)新,,提高模具設(shè)計(jì)制造水平。在制造中積極采用多媒體與虛擬現(xiàn)實(shí)技術(shù),逐步走向網(wǎng)絡(luò)化、智能化環(huán)境,實(shí)現(xiàn)模具企業(yè)的敏捷制造、動(dòng)態(tài)聯(lián)盟與系統(tǒng)集成。我國模具工業(yè)一個(gè)完全信息化的、充滿著朝氣和希望而又實(shí)實(shí)在在的新時(shí)代即將到來。

Results and discussion A full two dimensional time dependent mold cooling analysis in injection molding is carried out for a plate mould model with T shape plastic mold and four cooling channels as indicated in Fig 1 Due to the symmetry half of the mold is modeled and ana lyzed All the cooling channels have the same size and they have diameter of 10 mm each in case of circular channels The cooling operating parameters and the material properties are listed in Ta bles 1 and 2 respectively and they are considered constant during all numerical results 5 7 Each numerical cycle consists of two stages cooling stage where the cavity is filled with hot polymer initially at polymer injected temperature the ejection stage where the cavity is filled with air initially at ambient temperature Figs 3 and 4 show the cyclic transient variations of the mould tempera ture with time for 16 s mold cooling time at locations P1 P2 P3 P4 beside the mould walls and P5 to P7 inside the mould walls respectively Fig 1 and that in case of applied the solidifica tion and without applied solidification They are simulated for the first 30 cycles in case of circular cooling channels position A5 D3 as shown in Fig 2 We find that the simulated results are in good agreement with the transient characteristic of the cyclic mold tem perature variations described in 5 It is found that there is a slightly difference in temperatures values between the two results thus due to the difference in numerical method used and the accu racy in the numerical calculations The figures show that the rela tively temperature fluctuation is largest near the cavity surface and diminishes away from the cavity surface We find that the maxi mum amplitude of temperature fluctuation during the steady cycle can reach 10 C176C without applying solidification and 15 C176C in case of applying the solidification 4 1 Effect of cooling channels form An efficient cooling system design providing uniform tempera ture distribution throughout the entire part during the cooling pro cess should ensure product quality by preventing differential shrinkage internal stresses and mould release problems It also should reduce time of cooling and accelerate the solidification pro cess of the product to augment the productivity of the molding Table 1 Cooling operating parameters Cooling operating parameter Cooling

temperature distribution throughout the mould and solidi fication process of the product we proposed three different cross sectional forms of the cooling channels circular square rectangu lar1 with long to width ratio of 0 5 and rectangular 2 with width to long ratio of 0 25 Two cases are studied first case all the cooling channels have the same cross sectional area and the second case they have the same perimeter The comparison is carried out for the same cooling channels position A5 D3 Fig 5 shows the solidification percent calculated numerically as the summation of the solid fraction of each element multiplied by the area of that element to total area of the product for differ ent forms with different cooling time The figure indicates that the effect of cooling channels form on the cooling rate decreases with increasing the cooling time It also shows that the cooling channel form rectangle 2 has the maximum solidification percent for case 1 and in case 2 the changing of the cooling channels form has not a sensible effect on the solidification percent The same results can be obtained when we compared the solidification in the prod uct and the temperature distribution though the mould for differ ent forms with the same cross sectional area at the end of the cooling stage for cooling time 24 s for cooling cycle 25 as shown in Figs 6 and 7 respectively The results indicate that the cooling process is improved as the cooling channels tend to take the form of the product 4 2 Effect of cooling channels position To investigate the effect of the cooling channels position we di vided the proposed positions into four groups groups A and B for different positions of the bottom cooling channel with a fixed po sition of the top cooling channel and with vice versa for groups C and D for the same cooling channel form circular as illustrated in Fig 2 Fig 8 represents the effect of different cooling channel positions on the of solidification percent at the end of 25th cooling cycle for groups A and B lower cooling channel effect C and D upper cool ing channel effect with cooling time It indicates that for lower cooling channel position effect the cooling rate increases and hence the solidification percent of the polymer increases as the cooling channel approaches the polymer in the vertical direction position B has solidification percent greater than position A and with the same positions C and D The figure shows also the most efficient cooling rate is obtained as the cooling channel takes the position between 20 and 50 through the product length

of the temperature distribution and that dif ferent cooling rate through the cooling process lead to different severe warpage and thermal residual stress in the final product which affect on the final product quality 5 Conclusion The variation of the temperature of the mould through a num ber of molding cycles is carried out The simulated results are in good agreement with the transient characteristic of the cyclic mold temperature variations described in 5 and It is found that there is a slightly difference in temperatures values between the simulated results and those described in 5 The effect of cooling channels form and the effect of its position on the temperatures distribution throughout the polymer and the solidification of 7 4 2 X 0 0 0 20 150 10 05 Fig 10 Temperature distribution through the mould for different cooling channels the product are studied The results indicate that as the cooling channels take the form of the product the cooling rate is im proved The position of cooling channels has a great effect on the cooling process and temperature distribution through the mould and the polymer The results show that the cooling system layout which performs minimum cooling time not necessary achieves optimum temperature distribution throughout the prod uct and the system layout must be optimized to achieve the both goals References 1 S H Tang Y M Kong S
