6. Chemical resistance
7. Mechanical performance 8. Good Electrical & Thermal insulation
9. Flammability
10. Poor weather resistance 11. Relatively high coefficient of Thermal Expansion
Feed-System
Flow-way to connect machine nozzle to each impression.
Allows the molten-plastic to flow from the runner or from the sprue into the cavity.
Much smaller than Runner. Large enough for suitable filling & small enough to seal-off and prevent backflow or packing. Should be located for economical removal (de-gating) & finishing of the part.
Gate-Size
Depth, Shape, Size, Thickness
Gate Position
The position of the gate should be such that :1. Even flow of the melt in the impression
Types of Gates
Twelve Types :1. Sprue-Gate 3. Overlap-Gate 5. Tab-Gate 7. Ring-Gate 9. Pin-Point-Gate 2. Rectangular-Edge-Gate 4. Fan-Gate 6. Diaphragm-Gate 8. Film-Gate 10. Round-Edge-Gate
11. Subsurface-Gate
12. Winkle-Gate
