Planning Gate Locations for Better Material Flow
Articles & Blogs Category
A gate is the opening through which molten plastic enters the mold cavity. Its position affects material flow direction, filling pressure, weld line formation, and the appearance of gate marks. Poor gate placement can prevent the material from filling the cavity properly or leave visible marks on the product surface. Gate location should therefore be considered during the early design stage.
Gate placement should account for product geometry, areas that require a clean appearance, and the material flow path inside the mold. For complex products, flow analysis can help evaluate potential issues before mold manufacturing begins. Considering gate location early allows cavity filling to be planned more systematically and may reduce the need for later tooling adjustments.
