摘要
The objective of this paper is to examine the influence of injection molding parameters（<物><數(shù)>參量；參項(xiàng)；決定因素） on the core shift to obtain the optimal （為了獲得最佳）injection molding conditions （注塑條件）of a plastic battery case with thin and deep walls using numerical analyses and experiments（利用數(shù)值分析和實(shí)驗(yàn)）.
這篇文章的目的是利用數(shù)值分析和實(shí)驗(yàn)的方法來檢驗(yàn)型芯移動(dòng)時(shí)對(duì)注射模參數(shù)的影響以及對(duì)薄壁深腔塑料電池盒的最佳注塑條件。
Unlike conventional injection molding analysis, the flexible parts(靈活的部件)of the mold were represented（v. 代表；表現(xiàn)；描寫） by 3-D tetrahedron （n. [晶體] 四面體）meshes （n.網(wǎng)孔（ mesh的名詞復(fù)數(shù) ）；網(wǎng)狀物；陷阱；困境) to consider the core shift in the numerical analysis.
與傳統(tǒng)的注射成型分析不同，模具的活動(dòng)部件利用三維四面體網(wǎng)格來表示以數(shù)值分析法來考慮型芯移動(dòng)。The design of experiments (DOE) was used to estimate(估計(jì)，估價(jià)；判斷)the proper molding conditions that minimize (vt. 使減到最少；小看，極度輕視vi. 最小化)the core shift and a dominantparameter（一個(gè)重要參數(shù)）.
DOE（Design of Experiment）試驗(yàn)設(shè)計(jì)，一種安排實(shí)驗(yàn)和分析實(shí)驗(yàn)數(shù)據(jù)的數(shù)理統(tǒng)計(jì)方法；試驗(yàn)設(shè)計(jì)主要對(duì)試驗(yàn)進(jìn)行合理安排，以較小的試驗(yàn)規(guī)模(試驗(yàn)次數(shù))、較短的試驗(yàn)周期和較低的試驗(yàn)成本，獲得理想的試驗(yàn)結(jié)果以及得出科學(xué)的結(jié)論。
實(shí)驗(yàn)設(shè)計(jì)(DOE)是用來評(píng)估適當(dāng)?shù)某尚蜅l件下,使型芯移動(dòng)量最小的一個(gè)重要參數(shù)。
The results of the DOE showed that the dominant parameter is the injection pressure, and the core shift decreases when the injection pressure decreases.
結(jié)果表明,DOE的主要參數(shù)是注射壓力,當(dāng)注射壓力降低時(shí)型芯移動(dòng)量也在減小。
In addition, it was shown that the initial mold temperature and the injection time hardly affect the core shift.
此外,研究結(jié)果表明,初始模具溫度和注射時(shí)間幾乎不影響型芯移動(dòng)。The results of the experiments showed that products （n. 產(chǎn)品；商品）without warpage （n. [木] 翹曲，彎曲） are manufactured （制造，加工）when the injection pressure is nearly 32 MPa.
實(shí)驗(yàn)的結(jié)果表明,當(dāng)注射壓力接近32 MPa時(shí)，制造的產(chǎn)品不發(fā)生彎曲。
Comparing the results of the analyses with those of the experiments, optimal injection molding conditions were determined.
分析的結(jié)果與實(shí)驗(yàn)對(duì)比,確定了最佳注射成型條件。
In addition, it was shown that the core shift should be considered to simulate（模仿；假裝） the injection molding process of a plastic battery case with thin and deep walls.

介紹最近汽車行業(yè)中人們普遍關(guān)心的問題之一是用減小車輛整體重量來提高燃油效率以及減少車輛對(duì)環(huán)境產(chǎn)生影響[1 - 3]。
The injection molding process of thinner plastic components allows considerable weight savings on the automotive（汽車）, a significant（顯著） reduction in production cost, and a shorter cycle time [1].

人們都在積極努力的從事各項(xiàng)研究來開發(fā)薄壁塑料件的注塑模工藝[1]。
High injection pressure and high injection speed are necessary to manufacture（制造）plastic parts with thin and deep walls [4].制造生產(chǎn)薄壁深腔的塑料零件必須要使用高噴射壓力和高噴射速度[4]。
However, a high injection pressure can give rise（導(dǎo)致） to a core shift,which is the spatial（空間） deviation（偏差） of the position of the core during injection molding [5].
然而,一個(gè)高噴射壓力能增加一個(gè)型芯移動(dòng),這是型芯在注塑中空間位置的偏差形成的[5]。
Shepard et al. found that the mold design and injection molding conditions strongly affect the core shift of the mold [6].

Leo 等人報(bào)道,模具中強(qiáng)度較差的模板的彎曲會(huì)使產(chǎn)品的厚度發(fā)生變化[7]。
Bakharev et al. reported that core shift effects in injection molding can be predicted through mold filling simulation coupled with an elastic analysis （彈性分析）of the flexible parts of the mold [4].

3.1 DOE的注射成型結(jié)果分析圖3和表2注塑分析顯示結(jié)果。
The flexible parts of the core were deformed （變形）in identical directions（方向） regardless of the combination of injection molding conditions, as shown in Fig. 3.
在任何注塑條件的組合下動(dòng)模的型芯的變形方向相同,見圖3。
Fig. 3 and Table 2 show that the deformations of the F1, F5, and F6 parts of the core were greater than 0.1 mm and flexible parts of the core deformed symmetrically.
圖3和表2表明,變形的F1,F5、F6部分的型芯是大于0.1毫米和動(dòng)模型芯變形對(duì)稱。
In addition, it was noted that the shifts of the F2 and F3 parts are negligible in comparison with those of other parts.
此外,他們注意到F2和F3變化的部分相比,是可以忽略不計(jì)的其他部分。
From the results of the injection molding analysis, the S/N and contribution ratios were calculated for the F1, F5, and F6 parts of the core with relatively large core shifts.
從結(jié)果的注塑成型分析、S / N和貢獻(xiàn)比率計(jì)算的F1,F5、F6部分的型芯與相對(duì)較大的型芯偏移。
Fig. 4 and Table 3 show the results of the DOE.
圖4和表3DOE顯示結(jié)果。
In Fig. 4, it can be seen that the S/N ratios of the injection pressure, the holding time, the injection time, and the initial mold temperature are maximized (最大化)when their values (n. 價(jià)值觀念；價(jià)值標(biāo)準(zhǔn))are 30 MPa, 1.6 seconds, 4.4 seconds, and 40 oC, respectively.
圖4中,可以看到,S / N比率的噴射壓力、保溫時(shí)間、注射時(shí)間、初始模具溫度是最大的時(shí)候,他們的標(biāo)準(zhǔn)分別是是30 MPa,1.6秒,4.4秒,40攝氏度。
The S/N ratio of the in jection pressure also increases remarkably （adv. 顯著地；非常地；引人注目地） when the injection pressure decreases, as shown in Fig. 4.
當(dāng)注射壓力降低S / N比率在注射壓力也增加明顯,見圖4。
Table 3 shows that the mean value of the contribution ratio of the injection pressure is nearly 76.3 % and that the contribution ratio of the injection pressure is markedly higher than that of the other parameters.
表3顯示,平均比例的噴射壓力是近76.3%,在比率中的噴射壓力明顯高于其他參數(shù)。
From these results, it was noted that the dominant parameter, which mainly affects the core shift, is the injection pressure.從這些結(jié)果,指出主要參數(shù),主要影響型芯偏移的,就是注射壓力。
The variation in ratio and the contribution ratio for the injection time and the initial mold temperature are negligible, as shown in Fig. 4 and Table 3.
不同的S/N 注射時(shí)間和初始模具溫度都可以忽略不計(jì),見圖4和表3。From these results, it was noted that the injection time and the initial mold temperature hardly affect the core shift.從這些結(jié)果,指出注射時(shí)間和初始模具溫度幾乎沒有影響到型芯偏移。
3.2 Results of the experiments Using the results of the DOE, the experimental conditions of injection time, holding time, and initial mold temperature were set at 1.6 seconds, 4.4 seconds, and 40 oC, respectively.

The injection pressure was varied in the range of 27-32 MPa.注射壓力變化范圍在27 - 32 MPa。
Fig. 5 shows the results of the injection molding experiments.圖5顯示了注射成型的實(shí)驗(yàn)結(jié)果。
The shortshot did not occur in all experimental conditions, as shown in Fig. 5.
在所有的實(shí)驗(yàn)條件中不包括短時(shí)間注射,如圖5所示。
However, the warpages of the walls of the molded product occurred when the injection pressure was lower than 30 MPa, as shown in Fig.
當(dāng)然,在注射壓力低于30 MPa不能制作薄壁易變形的模制產(chǎn)品,見圖5(a)。
This results from the insufficient（不足）holding pressure.
這是保持壓力不足的結(jié)果。
The warpages of the product walls do not occur when the injection pressure is 32 MPa, as shown in Fig. 5(b).
當(dāng)注射壓力是32 MPa時(shí)薄壁易變形的產(chǎn)品也不能生產(chǎn),見圖5(b)。
From these results, the optimal injection molding conditions of the tested plastic battery case with thin and deep walls were determined as an injection pressure of 32 MPa, an injection time of 1.6 seconds, a holding time of 4.4 seconds, and an initial mold temperature of 40 oC.
從這些結(jié)果,塑料電池盒的薄壁深腔優(yōu)化注塑條件的測(cè)試被確定為注射壓力32 MPa、注射時(shí)間1.6秒,保持時(shí)間4.4秒,初始模具溫度為40攝氏度。
The results of the experiments were compared to those of the numerical analyses, as shown in Fig. 6.
實(shí)驗(yàn)的結(jié)果進(jìn)行了數(shù)值分析比較,見圖6。
Fig. 6(a) shows that the difference in wall thickness between the analyses and the experiments is reduced from -0.15 mm ~ 0.18 mm to -0.09 mm ~ 0.07 mm when the core shift is considered in the numerical analysis.
圖6(a)表明,在壁厚之間的差異分析的實(shí)驗(yàn)是減少?gòu)?0.15 mm ~ 0.18毫米到-0.09毫米~ 0.07毫米當(dāng)型芯偏移被認(rèn)為是在數(shù)值分析。
In addition, it was noted that the thickness variation of the walls is properly predicted by the core shift analysis.
此外,它是指出,厚度變化的深腔是正確預(yù)測(cè)的型芯偏移分析。
Fig. 6(b) shows that the core shift appreciably affects the post-deformation pattern of the molded product, and the numerical analysis accounting for the core shift can predict the post-deformation of the product within 0.15 mm of computational accuracy.
圖6(b)表明,偏芯偏移略微影響變形期后的模制產(chǎn)品模式,數(shù)值分析會(huì)計(jì)為核心轉(zhuǎn)變可以預(yù)測(cè)產(chǎn)品的變形期后在0.15毫米的計(jì)算精度。
The results of the numerical analyses show that the injection pressure is reduced from 50.2 MPa to 32.0 MPa when the core shift is considered.
數(shù)值分析的結(jié)果表明,當(dāng)型芯偏移被認(rèn)為是從注射壓力降低到32.0 MPa從50.2 MPa。
This is due to increased cavity volume induced by the elastic deformation of the core.
這是由于增加了空腔體積引起的彈性變形的型芯。
Based on the above results, it is noted that injection molding analysis accounting for（對(duì)…負(fù)有責(zé)任；對(duì)…做出解釋；說明……的原因）the core shift can properly simulate the injection molding process of the battery case with thin and deep walls.
基于上述結(jié)果,型芯偏移注塑分析可以正確地模擬電池外殼的薄壁深腔注塑工藝。
