1. Short Shot / Incomplete Filling
1 Insufficient injection pressure
2 Too slow injection speed
3 Poor mold cavity ventilation
4 Blocked gate
5 Too short injection time
6 Nozzle leakage
2. Flash / Burr
1 Excessive injection pressure
2 Insufficient mold clamping force, loose mold clamping
3 Poor sealing of mold joint surface, foreign matters on mold or deformed template
4 Damaged mold joint position
3. Air Bubbles / Moist Plastic Raw Material
1 Decomposition of plastic raw material
2 Too low molding temperature
3 Poor weld line
4 Plastic raw material mixed with impurities
5 Insufficient plastic thickness around inserts
6 Too low mold temperature
7 Unreasonable gate position design
8 Moist plastic raw material
4. Weld Line
1 Too low temperature
2 Too low melt temperature
3 Poor mold cavity ventilation
5. Silver Streaks
1 Plastic raw material contains moisture and volatiles
2 Too low drying temperature
3 Excessively large gate size
6. Black Spots (Color Mixing)
1 Decomposition of plastic raw material
2 Plastic raw material debris stuck between plunger and barrel
3 Plastic raw material contaminated or mixed with impurities
4 Uneven plastic raw material particles
5 Poor mold cavity ventilation
7. Deformation
1 Too high mold temperature, insufficient cooling time
2 Significant difference in product wall thickness
3 Improper ejector pin position, uneven force on products
4 Uneven mold cavity, unsmooth demolding, excessive friction
