Injection molding cycle time calculation is one of the most important works for an injection molding engineer. Injection molding is a cyclic process. In order to calculate the cycle time, you should calculate operating cycle time for all the molding machine`s movement. The whole operating cycle time includes injection time/filling time, Pressurized Holding Time, Polymer Melting/Charging Time, Cooling Tim, Machines basic movement(Mold open & close) operating Time, Ejection, Drop, Robot Time, etc. Total injection molding production cycle time calculation formula: T=Ti + Tp + +Ts + Tm + Tc + To +Te
