This case study focuses on saving manufacturing time by adjusting just one parameter. Moldex3D is used for not only optimising product design but also dealing with the basic issues. Berry Plastics needed to reduce the cycle time of the covers moulded in multiple cavities without making modifications to the tooling. The filling time, the only modified parameter, was reduced in the process setting and the result was validated through Moldex3D. The reduction of filling time then further saved around 1 second per moulding cycle as well as lots of time and human effort in the overall production.
