ejector marks injection molding cause and troubleshooting

In injection molding process, ejector marks is a concave or a convex on the surface. Samples are  stick in the mold under force of ejector system, it will create holes on products.

Cause of ejector mark.

+ Sample doesn’t have a draft angle at boss, rib. It is difficult to push sample out of the mold. Samples will have scratch, bite.

+ When design a mold, ejector pin is small or it is thin position.

+ Injection machine setup is not good, if we use high force for ejector system.

+ Cooling time is low so sample is not cold, sample will deform under force of ejector system.

+ Temperature difference between mold and ejector system.

How to improve ejector marks defect injection molding?

+ If sample has scratch at boss, rib -> lapping the mold at these position.

+ If ejector pin is too small, change to new ejector pin with bigger diameter, or change ejector pin to new position, we can change to rib area.

+ Increase cooling time.

+ Increase thickness of product  at ejector mark if we can.

+ Reduce holding pressure, holding pressure time, or mold temperature.

+ Check the mold, if ejector is over core surface, re-set ejector system.
