Figure Lengend Snippet: Schema for correcting geometry to reduce warpage: ( A ) initial mold geometry results with warped molded part; ( B ) reverse molded part modeling in opposite direction, ( C ) designing mold based on reversed geometry results with final molded part geometry with minimal warpage (adapted from , Wiley, 2024).

Article Snippet: In this step, the manually redesigned (inverse-contoured) warped molded part geometry was exported to Autodesk Moldflow Insight to carry out a final simulation process.

Figure Lengend Snippet: Redesigning molded part for moldabilty (red circles present the undercut area of the molded part): ( a ) warped geometry preventing slide from being pulled out from molded part: problematic area for ejection (left); result of surface analysis—darker green colored surfaces (with negative angle) inside the part represent undercuts in slide stroke direction (right). ( b ) Redesigned surfaces allowing smooth molded part ejection: view of redesigned surface (left), surface analysis of redesigned surface (right).
