Abstract : In thermoplastic injection moulding process, the cooling strategies are one of the most essential aspects to take in
to account, because it has significant influence on both production capacity and the quality of the plastic part. With
increasingly demand of electrical products i.e. fittings, junction boxes and distribution equipment’s, injection moulding
remains the most prevalent method for producing plastic parts. The main objective of this study was to determine an optimum
and efficient strategy where conformal cooling channels are investigated to have both cooling time (Cool Analysis) and
improve quality of the part (Warp Analysis) means of performing finite element analysis (FEA) and heat transfer analysis.
Design of mould component was carried out using commercial CAD software Unigraphics Nx 8.0. For FEA commercial CAE
software called Solidworks Plastics 2015 is used. The analysis show that the component with conformal cooling channels
exhibited a more uniform surface temperature, significantly reduced cycle time and less warpage, when compared to a
traditionally cooled mould design.
