Design Guideline for Injection Molding Components
General accepted design guidelines:
1. Design the main wall of uniform thickness with adequate tapers or draft for easy release from the mold. This will minimize part distortion by facilitating even cooling throughout the part.
2. Choose the material and the main wall thickness for minimum cost. Note: That a more expensive material with greater strength or stiffness may often be the best choice. The thinner wall which this choice allows will reduce material volume to offset the material cost increase. More importantly, the thinner wall will significantly reduce cycle time and hence processing time.

Design Guideline for Injection Molding Components
General accepted design guidelines:
3. Design the thickness of all projections from the main wall with a preferred value of ½ of the main wall thickness and do not exceed 2/3 of the main wall thickness. This will minimize cooling problems at the junction between the projection and main wall where the section is necessarily thicker.
4. Preferably align projections in the direction of molding or at right angles to the molding direction lying on the parting plane. This will eliminate the need for mold mechanisms..

Design Guideline for Injection Molding Components
General accepted design guidelines:
5. Avoid depressions on the inner side surfaces of the part which would require ‘Lifters’ (expensive). Through holes on the side surfaces instead of internal depressions are preferred as the former can be produced with sliders (cheaper).

Design for Assembly of Injection Molded Plastic Parts
Assembly Techniques One of the major advantages of injection molding is its ability to easily incorporate, in the molded parts, effective self-securing techniques.
A/P Lee Kim Seng
Self securing refers to the ability to achieve a secure assembly without the use of separate fasteners or the addition of a separate bonding agent.

Self-securing techniques unique to plastic parts:
Ultrasonic welding
Snap Joint

Press Fitting With press fitting much larger interferences are possible with injection molded parts than is the case with metal parts.
Molded plastic parts such as gears, wheels or bearings are commonly mounted on shafts using a press fit.

Design for Assembly of Injection Molded Plastic Parts
Press Fitting
The advantage of press fitting is that it requires less precise tolerance control.
A/P Lee Kim Seng
The negative aspect of plastic press fit is that the material is constantly under stress and will invariably relax over a period of time to produce degradation of the joint strength.

Riveting Integral rivets are easily produced through inexpensive feature additions to the mold.
A/P Lee Kim Seng
Assembly of rivet heads are easily formed by cold heading or by the use of heated forming tools (staking).

Staking
Typical staked joint: the hole is completely filled by compressing the stud.
Staking by reverse taper: the stud is wider at the base and has no dome.

Ultrasonic welding
Ultrasonic welding equipment involves a special fixture to hold and clamp the parts and through which a high-frequency vibration of approximately 20 kHz is passed.
This is a method of joining two or more molded parts through the generation of intermolecular frictional heat at the assembly interface.
A/P Lee Kim Seng

Ultrasonic welding Ultrasonic welding is a good economic choice where sealed joining is required, since the equipment is relatively inexpensive and the process is fast.
Welding is accomplished typically in 2 s.

Snap Fit/Joint Design Consideration
1. Cantilever snap fit element and its mating undercut should be designed for molding without mold mechanism.
2. Alternative design involves the use of sliders and lifters to mold the undercut.
For a large enough production volume the extra mold costs can be easily outweighed by the subsequent savings in assembly cost.

Cantilever snap beams with a 90° return angle must be manually deflected for separation.
Cantilever snap beams with ramping return angles can be snapped in and out. The angles of inclination and the beam geometry control the relative assembly and disassembly forces.

Hot Plate welding
A/P Lee Kim Seng
Hot plate welding is achieved by placing a heating strip between the parts to be assembled. When the edges of the parts become soft, the strip is removed and the parts are quickly brought together.

Design Considerations for Plastic Parts Assembly
Poor appearance as a result of mismatch can be avoided by deliberately designing one part larger than the other.

Design for Assembly of Injection Molded Plastic Parts
Whenever possible, bosses should be free standing, or attached to sidewalls using ribs in order to minimize the potential for sink marks and shrinkage voids.

DFM for Injection Molding
Parts are designed with shrinkage included early in the design and before mould was built Shrinkage rates for some common materials
Material Max Shrinkage 1. Acetal 2.5% 2. Acrylic 0.8% 3. ABS 0.8% 4. Nylon 1.5% 5. PC 0.7% 6. PE 5.0% 7. PP 2.5% 8. PS 0.6% 9. PVC rigid 0.5% 10.PVC flexible 5.0%

Design Rules for Shrinkage
The following design rules provide some guidelines for developing low-shrinkage, warp-free parts One can reduce or control shrinkage and warpage by
properly designing the part, mold, and process, as well as through careful material selection. Wall thickness: Avoid non-uniform wall thickness or
design a transition length of three times the thickness of the thinner region

Design Rules for Shrinkage (Cont..)
Thick Sections: Alter the design to replace thick sections that cause significant shrinkage and lead to sink marks or internal voids. • A thin, uniform wall with ribs provides for uniform shrinkage,
strength to weight ratio, and cost effectiveness.

Shrinkage and Warpage
These causes are described more fully below. Non-uniform mold cooling across the part thickness or over
the part Cooling rates that differ because of Part thickness variation

Warpage in molded parts results from differential shrinkage.
Variation in shrinkage can be caused by molecular and fiber orientation, temperature variations within the molded part, and by variable packing, such as over-packing at gates and under-packing at remote locations, or different pressure levels as material solidifies across the part thickness.
Differences in filled and unfilled materials
