Materials Characterisation for Autodesk Moldflow
Materials Characterisation For Flow Simulation Software
Gammadot Rheology has over three decades experience characterising both standard & novel grades of materials for Moldflow injection moulding simulation trials.
Thermoplastic Testing
From virgin polymer to highly filled compounds. A full characterisation includes:
► Shear Viscosity
► Specific Heat Capacity
► Thermal Conductivity
► Density
► Transition Temperatures
►P.v.T. Behaviour
► Mechanical Properties*
► Coefficient of Thermal Expansion
► .UDB data input file fitted & supplied by Gammadot Rheology
*This does not include CRIMS (Corrected Residual In Mold Stress) test which is proprietary to Moldflow. CRIMS data is only used by Midplane and Dual Domain mesh types (not currently 3D)
Thermoset Testing
From two part liquid curing systems to fibre filled dough moulding compounds. A full characterisation includes:
► Reactive Viscosity
► Cure Kinetics
► Specific Heat Capacity
► Thermal Conductivity
► Density (uncured & cured)
►P.v.T. Behaviour (uncured & cured)
► Mechanical Properties
► Coefficient of Thermal Expansion
► .UDB data input file fitted by Autodesk Moldflow on behalf of Gammadot Rheology
Rubber Testing
From Liquid silicone systems to Fluoroelastomer compounds. A full characterisation includes:
► Reactive Viscosity
► Cure Kinetics
► Specific Heat Capacity
► Thermal Conductivity
► Density (uncured & cured)
►P.v.T. Behaviour (uncured & cured)
► Mechanical Properties
► Coefficient of Thermal Expansion
► .UDB data input file fitted by Autodesk Moldflow on behalf of Gammadot Rheology
Already have partial data sets? If you have previously measured parameter data sets available we are happy to compile these with those measured in-house @ Gammadot Rheology to reduce the overall cost of profiling a material.
