Abstract
In this paper, a nodal detection method for the detection and optimization of barrel helix offsets is proposed. The barrel used in this experiment is a 6-helix barrel. Moreover, the special properties of the film of Polyetheretherketone (PEEK) material are used to cover the surface of the barrel helix with a virtual in-mold decoration (IMD) film, and the unique nature of the film die offset in the IMD is utilized to detect the position of the barrel helix. The area with a large die index is the area with a large helix offset in the barrel, and the IMD die index is introduced to quantify the data. The IMD die index is used to determine the helix offset of the damaged barrel. The novelty of this work is that each node can use the die index to efficiently detect the position of the barrel helix deviation, carry out subsequent optimization and repair work through the optimization of the injection molding parameters and the design optimization of the barrel and verify the experiment by comparing the results. Through the steady-state simulation research mode, different permutations and combinations of the two process parameters are simulated to study their effects. Quantitative reference indicators include but are not limited to dependent variables such as the fluid flow velocity, shear rate, temperature distribution and phase transition, and the shear heating process of the injection screw is taken into account in the mold flow analysis to ensure that the die index value is more accurate. It can be seen from the analysis results that the temperature of the barrel changes after the groove depth and groove width are changed, and the effect ratio of the groove depth is lower than that of the groove width in the same degree of size change.
