Abstract

Injection moulding machine is used in the industries for manufacturing or fabrication of the plastic parts. The screw is
subjected to different temperature zones. It is the most critical components of the injection moulding machine. The raw granules of
plastic is melted in the injection moulding machine and injected into the mould .The material is feed into the hopper in the granules
form. The barrel contains reciprocating screw for infusing the material into the mould and material is additionally liquefied into the
barrel. The issue happen in the screw of machine which is wearing of screw because of influence of mould temperature and utilizing
30% glass field material i. e. Nylon, low thickness polypropylene, polystyrene ,PVC etc. The industries are having temporary
solutions but it is not so effective in improving life of the screw, because the stresses will be more in machined screw on lathe
machine as compared to normal screw. Hence, the modeling and analysis technique is used to solve the problem.
