Project Information & Part Requirements
Define project scope, part geometry, functional requirements, and performance specifications. Include annual volume projections, dimensional tolerances, and regulatory compliance needs (FDA, automotive, etc.).
Material Selection & Properties
Specify thermoplastic resin grade, mechanical properties, thermal requirements, and chemical resistance needs. Include material color, additives (UV stabilizers, flame retardants), and supplier preferences.
Processing Parameters
Define injection molding process window including melt temperature, injection pressure, hold pressure, cooling time, and cycle time targets. Specify material drying requirements and processing conditions.
Mold Design Requirements
Specify cavity layout, gate type and location, runner system design, cooling channel requirements, and ejection method. Include draft angles, parting line location, and surface finish requirements.
Dimensional Tolerances & Quality Standards
Define critical dimensions, geometric tolerances (GD&T), cosmetic requirements, and inspection methods. Specify acceptable defect levels and quality control procedures including statistical process control.
Testing & Validation Requirements
Outline required material testing (melt flow rate, impact strength), part validation tests, and qualification procedures. Include prototype quantities, testing standards (ASTM, ISO), and acceptance criteria.
