The
Practice of designing plastic products using computer-based finite element
flow analysis software has become increasingly sophisticated since its
conception in the late 1970’s. In order to produce accurate predictions
it is essential to use the appropriate material properties data. Different
materials, even of the same generic type, can behave in substantially
different ways during processing. Modern software packages have material
database systems that contain the necessary characteristics on many hundreds
of thermoplastic, elastomeric & thermosetting materials, although
they cannot cover every material a user is liable to consider.
Gammadot has almost two decades experience characterising both standard & novel grades of materials for flow simulation trials. We offer a portfolio of testing services aimed at providing accurate materials data for a wide variety of finite element flow simulation software packages including Moldflow & Sigmasoft 3D. In September 2009 Gammadot Rheology was awarded ‘approved laboratory’ status for the provision of materials characterisation data for Moldex3D – the flagship true 3D flow simulation software package developed by CoreTech System Co., Ltd (Taiwan).
