Abstract

The objective of this study determine the molding conditions of a double-shot injection mold for fabricating a computer mouse using different materials, by performing three-dimensional injection molding analysis. In order to select the optical injection molding conditions, the effects of the injection time, the maximum injection pressure, the effect of packing time on the injection molding characteristics, and the product qualities were quantitatively examined. From the results of the injection molding analysis, the optimal injection molding conditions of the double-shot injection mold, which leads the molded product to the minimized shrinkage and deflection, were estimated. The results of the injection molding experiments, showed that an appropriate computer mouse can be fabricated using different materials when the identified optimal injection molding conditions are adopted.

본 논문의 목적은 3 차원 사출성형 해석을 통하여 컴퓨터 마우스 제작용 이중사출성형 금형의 공정조건을 결정하는 것이다. 적합한 사출성형 공정조건을 선정하기 위하여 사출 시간, 최대 사출압력 및 보압 시간이 사출성형 특성과 제품 품질에 미치는 영향을 정량적으로 고찰하였다. 사출성형 해석 결과로부터 제품의 수축과 휨 변형을 최소화 할 수 있는 최적 사출성형 공정조건을 예측하였다. 최종적으로 사출성형 실험을 수행하여 이종재료로 구성된 컴퓨터 마우스 제품을 제작하였다. 이 결과로부터 선정한 사출성형 공정조건을 적용할 경우 적절한 이종 재료로 구성된 컴퓨터 마우스가 제작될 수 있음을 알 수 있었다.
