Description
Summary:This study is carried out to focus on computer aided engineering analysis on dental toolkit for disposable mouth mirror by using Autodesk Moldflow Insight (AMI) software. Disposable mouth mirror designs contain with a very small and precise features for it handles and fix angle between shank and working area (mirror). A 3D cad model of disposable mouth mirror has been construct and imported to the simulation software. The part has been analysed with thermoplastic material of Polypropylene (PP) as a part material for its light weight and durability. The simulation and analysis by moulding software package is used in order to determine the best range of operating parameter for injection moulding process in furtherance to get the low manufacturing defect. The process parameters that has been selected includes mould surface temperature, melt temperature, flow rate and cooling time during the injection moulding process. At the end, the best range of operating parameters has been proposed and simulates to study the product behaviour.
