Injection molding is one of the most important processes in the plastic manufacturing industry. More than one-third of all plastic materials are injection molded, And the mold is one of the main components in the injection molding process. The aim of this engineering thesis is to show detailed steps on how to design a complete mold and using the simulation software to analyze the material flow and defects in the product. The product design for this project is a joint credit card and USB flash drive holder. What makes this product unique from others is that it contains both functions together whereas most of the products in the market today don’t contain the same dual application.
The design of this product and the mold were made by the designing analysis software Solid edge ST2 software, Which is then simulated by the use of Mold Flow.
