Flow simulation of the two-component plastic injection process with reinforced parts

This paper presents a simulation of two-component injection process for obtaining plastic parts with metallic reinforcement using a specific software package, MoldFlow. It will consider the following process parameters, mould temperature and injection pressure. The study will analyze the comparison between plastic parts with and without metallic reinforcement. It will highlight the differences that occur between the input parameters, mould temperature and injection pressure and the out parameters, cooling time and injection time for those types of parts obtained. Furthermore will be simulated a mechanical stresses of traction using a specific software package, Cosmos, for both parts obtained.
