Comparison of Moldex3D and Moldflow Injection Moulding Simulation

Injection moulding is one of the most significant polymer processing procedures and is highly positioned on the scale of the production of goods. One of the reasons of its importance is the possibility of economical production of great number of complex mouldings with high-quality surface. In order to eliminate unnecessary mould trials, minimize product development cycle, reduce overall costs and improve product quality, polymeric engineers use new CAE technology (Computer Aided Engineering). This technology is a simulation tool, which combines proven theories, material properties and process conditions to generate realistic simulations and produce valuable recommendations. Based on these recommendations, an optional combination of product design, material and process conditions can be identified. In this paper, comparison between two different softwares for injection moulding simulation, Moldex3D and Moldflow, were conducted. Comparison was made in the following fields: ease of usage, setting up the model, filling phase, packing phase, cooling phase, warpage phase and report generation.
