Burn Marks
The burn scars are caused by the inability of the cavity's
gas to be quickly expelled, which results in blackening at the
flow's termination.
Flash
It denotes the presence of extra plastic on the ejector or
mould separation.
Causes: When the two melt fronts collide, it results from the
air being unable to escape from the dividing surface, the ram,
or the vent.
Brittleness
Brittleness refers to how quickly a plastic component
can crack or break.
Warpage
The war page is the most challenging issue to address in
the design and production of plastic parts.

Problem solved in cover fan mould and design specification forsolving the problem
A tool called a fan cover core is used in moulding procedures to create internal cavities and re-entrant angles (interior angles
higher than 180 degrees). In order to remove the core from the piece, it is often a disposable item that is destroyed. They are employed
most frequently in, although they are also employed in die casting and injection moulding.
Above fig shows that the difference between standard dimension to the actual dimension in the mould gateway. Actual gateway
is not having same dimensions in all its gateway area this problemis obtained due to bend in its pins and some of pins are ware out.
Due to this problem the work material is entering some places the material was not suppose to enter, due to this the flash is obtains.
Above fig shows that the difference between radius of each pin’s to its parallel pin. In the standard arrangement of pins diameter
of parallel pins are same to all, but in the Actual arrangement of pins it is not same in all pins. This problem is obtained due to bend
tn the pinsand ware out of pins.
Problem solved in head lamp housing mould and design specification for solving theproblem

The mold's side core is a component. For the purpose of creating a hole or recess in the side face of a moulding, a sliding core
is a local core that is typically positioned at a right angle to the mould axis. This side core prohibits the moulding from being
removed in-line, hence a method must be given to remove the side core before ejection It is employed in this mould to enlarge the
component's holes.

The histogram represents the optimization of bin area in x axis it represents the machine and Y axis representstime in seconds.
We can see that the time has been balanced.
The graph shows time consumption in seconds the blue indicates the before optimization timewas taking around 66% and
yellow indicates the after-optimization time was taking around 34% we cansee that time has been optimized 32%.
Before maintenance PED, actual time & man time for the followingcomponents
In the histogram X axis represents the PED time, actual time, man time and Y axis represents time in seconds. In graph we can
see that man time 50 sec is exceeding the actual time 45sec which results in theloss of OEE.
In graph we can see that man time 34 sec is exceeding the actual time 34 sec both the timehasbeen balanced but the OEE
cannot be achieved.
After maintenance PED, actual time and man time for the followingcomponents
In graph we can see that man time 40 sec is not exceeding the actual time 45 sec it hasoptimized up to 5 sec which
helps achieve the OEE.
In graph we can see that man time 25 sec is not exceeding the actual time 46 sec it hasoptimized up to 21 sec which
helps achieve the OEE.
In graph we can see that man time 24 sec is not exceeding the actual time 34 sec it hasoptimized up to10 sec which
helps achieve the OEE.
