Fareast Mold utilizes the Finite Element software package from Mold flow to simulate the complex of injection molded polymer melts. Data collated is interpreted and used to predict and eliminate potential molding problems prior to the cutting of steel. Analysis modules available are: Flow - When used from the outset we are able to provide customers design departments with the necessary insight and knowledge of how molten polymer flows through the part cavity. By suggesting alternative design options in combination with material selection and processing conditions evaluate, assist and optimize the design for the injection-molded process. Flow simulations determine; optimal gate location(s). Optimized runner system; predict weld lines, identify air traps, determine sheer stress, determines fill time, confidence of fill, clamping force, melt temperature, gate freeze time, packing time and pressure.

A. Manufacturing

The production line is split into several cellular manufacturing units. Each cell has its own cell leader who is responsible for the production plan, raw material, sampling, and cell members and of cause the quality and inspection by his team of each job running. Products are manufactured and delivered to their production line straight from the cell daily. The benefits of separating one huge line of mold machines into several manufacturing cells have been enormous. Customer lead times have been cut due to a dramatic reduction of work in progress. Customer complaints have dropped to a record low, as you would expect from cells dedicated to particular materials, products or customers. Such benefits have recently attracted major companies in the tumble dryer and electronic machine guard industries. Needless to say all our customers are benefiting from these working practices.
