, But Tooling Is Done, it takes at Least A Few Days and Hundreds of Dollars to Make Even a Small Tooling Modification.
At this stage, FICTIV Will Also Inform you as to how the tooling and injecting molding will affect your Plastic Parts.
Considerations Include:
’TFFECT The Function by Being on the Sliding Track) the locality of the Knit Line (the line where two Flow Fronts Meet)
04 Tooling Design
Next you will review the tooling drawing for approval. It ’s imageant that you commit any concentrns indisfied with the design.

In T1; They Polish the Tooling or Add Texture once The Customer has approvd the T1 Sample, and there are no major modifications.
07 T2 and T3 Samples Second & Third TRIAL

Recommended Wall Thickness for Common Resins Available At Fiction:
ONCE The Nominal Wall Thickness Has Been Set, It NEEDS to Be As Uniform as Posses the Part PART, for Two Reasonations:
To shrink repenly as it solidifies. Differential wanting thickness leads to different rainKage, causion the parts to warp.
If it ’s not public to keep a uniform thickness in your design, you have a feew opticals:
Option 1: Rounded Corners & Smooth Transitions
exterior radius should be the inside radius, plus the well thickness.
Option 2: Drapt Angles
like scream and slots.
Thickness of the boss shopping typically not being be more than of your overall through thickness.
Walls are drafted. IDEALLY, The Height of the Rib Should Not Exceed 2.5t. Commonly Used DRAFT Angles are somewhere between 0.5 Degrees to degree Perial.
nominal want thickness of the part.
The parting line, where the mold opens and closes, determines the direction of your drawt.
The Four Most Common Types of Gate Designs Are Edge, Sub, Hot Tip, and Sprue.
Edge Gates
EDGE Gates Are Best SUITED for Flat Parts, AND, as the name implies, locald at the edge. This type of gate will create a scar on the parting line.
Subgates
Your Gate Location Needs to Be Moved Away from the Parting Line to Enhance Filling.
Hot tip gates
Hot tip gates are located at the top of the mold, typically only in Locations where the geometry is round or content.
Sprue Gates
scar at their point of control.
Part that may not be visible, such as the inside of a houseing. The ejector pin pin pads need to be placed on a surpendicular to the direction the effect pins body
