Surface Roughness

Rough surface or lack of gloss. Caused by inadequate flow, low mold temperature, etc.

◆ Common Causes

  • •Melt temperature too low
  • •Mold temperature too low
  • •Injection speed too low
  • •Poor mold surface condition
  • •Excessive release agent

◆ Solutions

  • ✓Raise melt temperature
  • ✓Raise mold temperature
  • ✓Increase injection speed
  • ✓Polish mold surface
  • ✓Reduce release agent quantity

◆ Resin-Specific Notes

PA

GF reinforcement can expose fibers at surface → raising mold temperature helps.

PC

Excellent surface gloss, but mold temperature is key.

ABS

Good surface reproducibility.
