This comprehensive introductory guide to injection molding simulation is designed to cater to both practicing engineers and students, with the ultimate goal of fostering innovation and enhancing part design and molding processes, which are crucial for efficient manufacturing. The book adopts a user-friendly, case-study-based approach, complemented by numerous full-color illustrations. Conceptually, it is organized into three parts:

Part 1: Fundamentals of Injection Molding
Chapters 1 to 5 provide a foundational understanding of injection molding, focusing on the factors that govern molding quality and the development of molding simulation methodologies. In this section, the rheological, thermodynamic, thermal, mechanical, kinetic, and curing kinetics of plastics are extensively elaborated, as they are fundamental to achieving high-quality molding.

Part 2: CAE Verification of Design
Chapters 6 to 11 delve into the application of computer-aided engineering (CAE) verification in design, serving as a valuable tool for both part and mold designers. This part encompasses design guidelines for various components of injection molds, such as part design, gating, runner, and cooling channel systems. It also discusses temperature control in hot runner systems, warpage prediction and control, and fiber orientation.

Part 3: Research and Development in Innovative Molding
Chapters 12 to 17 showcase the latest research and development in innovative molding techniques, illustrating how CAE is applied to advanced molding processes. These techniques include co-/bi-Injection molding, gas-/water-assisted injection molding, foam injection molding, powder injection molding, resin transfer molding, and integrated circuit packaging. The authors of this book are part of the creative simulation team at CoreTech System (Moldex3D), which has been recognized with the PPS James L. White Innovation Award 2015. Additionally, several CAE case study exercises are included to allow readers to practice what they have learned and test their understanding of the material.

By leveraging the expertise and insights of the authors, this guide aims to empower readers to push the boundaries of injection molding simulation and drive technological advancements in the manufacturing industry.
