We noticed a slight variance in cycle time when running 30% GF PA66 during monsoon humidity shifts. Did increasing mould temperature to 90°C assist in stabilizing weld-line strength without increasing cycle time beyond 28 seconds?

Hi Ramanathan, yes—proper desiccant drying of PA66 down to <0.02% moisture before processing is critical. Maintaining 90°C mould temperature improves surface finish and weld line entanglement without penalty if multi-stage holding pressure is tuned correctly.
