Abstract:

This paper reported an intensive study on the injection molding of polyphenylene ether/polyamide fender. Based on the results from numerical simulation, a research method of principal component analysis combined with grey relational analysis was proposed to obtain the first principal component equation. Then, the contribution degree of each index, the influence degree of each process parameter on the comprehensive quality, and the combination of better process parameters were achieved to optimize the defects such as wing warpage deformation, uneven volume shrinkage and shrinkage mark. The results indicated that the influence degree of each process parameter on the comprehensive quality increased by an order of: cooling time > die temperature > melt temperature > holding time > holding pressure. After optimization, the maximum warpage deformation decreased by 9.6 % from 11.29 to 10.21 mm, volume shrinkage decreased by 11.33 % from 16.24 % to 14.4 %, and shrinkage mark length decreased by 7 % from 0.060 6 to 0.056 4 mm.

Key words: fender, principal component analysis, grey relational analysis, multiple target
