Subminiature lenses are currently widely used in mobile phone cameras and are usually produced by injection molding. The lens molding process has the unique feature of a runner volume that is much larger than the part volume, and this feature should be considered when determining the mold design and molding conditions. In this study, a shell-type runner was proposed as an alternative to the conventional cylindrical runner used for lens molding. An injection molding simulation was performed by applying the proposed shell runner, and the simulation results were compared with those from the cylindrical runner case. It was found that the shell runner could considerably reduce the runner cooling time with only a slight increase in the injection pressure. The effect of the runner thickness was then investigated numerically in terms of the mold filling and cooling characteristics, from which an optimal runner thickness could be determined.

본 논문에서는 다수 캐비티 금형의 러너 내 불균일한 전단분포로 인해 발생되는 충전불균형에 따른 치수정밀도, 기계적 강도 등 물성의 차이가 발생되는 문제점을 해소하기 위해서 수지가 처음 분기되는 2차 러너의 구조에 변화를 주어 다수 캐비티 사출성형에서 충전균형을 위한 러너시스템을 제시하였다. 이 러너시스템은 전단률차이에 의한 즉, 온도가 불균일한 수지의 흐름을 혼합함으로써 수지의 흐름을 균일하게 하여 충전균형을 이루도록 하였다.

플라스틱은 가공이 용이하기 때문에 우리 생활에 널리 이용되고 있다. 과거에는 단순히 제품의 외장제로 이용되었지만 산업이 발달함에 따라 금속을 대체 할 정도로 사용 범위가 증가하고 있다. 또한 사용량이 증가함에 따라 제품의 생산량을 증가시키기 위해선 다수 캐비티의 금형 사용이 필수적으로 되었다. 다수 캐비티 사출성형에서 각 캐비티 간 제품의 품질 및 물성을 향상시키기 위해선 각 캐비티로 충전되는 수지가 균형을 이루어야 한다. 하지만 기하학적으로 균형을 갖추고 있는 러너를 설계하여도 실제 사출성형에서는 불균형 충전이 일어나게 된다. 이러한 불균형 충전은 미국의 Beaumont에 의해서 처음 규명된 뒤 충전불균형 현상을 해결하기 위해 많은 연구가 진행되었다. 본 논문에서는 다수 캐비티 사출성형에서 균형충전을 위한 러너시스템을 제안하였다. 이 러너시스템은 온도가 불균일한 수지의 흐름을 혼합함으로써 수지의 흐름을 균일하게 하여 균형충전을 이루도록 하였다. 또한 사출성형해석프로그램인 Moldflow를 이용한 유동해석을 통해 그 효과를 나타내 보았다.

The formation and elongation of runners, growth of runner plants, and transplant propagation rates of 'Maehyang' strawberry were investigated at various photosynthetic photon flux (PPF) levels. Strawberry plants having $3.1{\pm}0.4$ leaves and $7.0{\pm}1.1mm$ of crown diameter were used as propagules and were cultured for 35 days in 9 transplant production modules using fluorescent lamps as artificial lighting sources. Applied PPF levels were $137.4{\pm}2.1$, $217.0{\pm}1.0$, and $274.7{\pm}8.4{\mu}mol{\cdot}m^{-2}{\cdot}s^{-1}$ as measured on the surfaces of empty shelves. The numbers of runners and runner plants per propagule were the greatest at $280{\mu}mol{\cdot}m^{-2}{\cdot}s^{-1}$ PPF. The runner plant propagation rate was 0.27 plant/day/propagule at $280{\mu}mol{\cdot}m^{-2}{\cdot}s^{-1}$, which was significantly greater than that of conventional propagation methods. Results indicate that high PPF levels promotes the formation of runners and runner plants of strawberry and that the rapid propagation method with high PPF levels can be feasible for production of vigorous transplants in a closed transplant production system.

In injection molding process, the runner system of the mold is a flow path for filling the cavity of the molded part during the advance of the screw by the force of the hydraulic cylinder, which involves the filling and packing process of the molten resin. Thus, the sprue, runner and gate greatly affect the appearance of the molded part, the physical properties of the resin, the dimensional accuracy and the molding cycle etc. Feed systems with incorrect runner and gate designs cause various molding defects, So it is important to maintain the optimum runner balance to prevent these defects. In order to improve the knowledge of practical mold technology, which is applied to the manufacturers of injection molds, a training model of the mold technology process is presented based on the technical guidance on the technical difficulties.

Almost all injection molds have multi-cavity runner system for productivity and are designed with geometrically balanced runner system in order to minimize filling imbalance between cavity to cavity during processing. However, filling imbalances have been observed though geometrically balanced runner lay-out are used. Generally, these filling imbalances are due to thermal unbalance, viscosity, characteristic of polymers and so on. These kinds of filling imbalances has already been reported by Beaumont[1] since 1997. In this study, we presented filling imbalaces in balanced runner that has unnary branch type lay-out through experimental tests. As a result of experiments, we could present the processing conditions for the balanced filling in geometrically balanced runner that has unnary branch type lay-out

This study aims to develop an efficient mold structure for the injection molding of a subminiature lens, using shell-type runners instead of traditional cylindrical runners. While the shell runner has the advantage of shorter cooling time due to its thinner geometry, this smaller thickness causes an increase in injection pressure. In this study, the design of the shell runner was modified to contain multiple holes for the purpose of reducing injection pressure. Numerical analyses were performed for shell runners of various hole-shapes, and the resulting filling and cooling characteristics were discussed; the rhombic hole showed the best result for both filling and cooling characteristics. Subsequently, injection molding experiments were performed using an injection mold fabricated based on the rhombic design. The lens parts were successfully molded with highly-reduced cycle time and without degradation of part quality.
