Air In The Top Of The Molds

Recommended Posts

I have a 6 cavitys craw molds. I get some air in each of the top of each crawfish cavity. Its in the same spot in each cavity

I know when hot plastic gos into the cavity the air comes out from the sides of the plate. but that little air gets trap at each top cavitys.

So I open the cavity hole more were the hot plastic gos in so the air can come out.

Thanks

Most likely you are getting suck back from the plastic cooling and shrinking. Keep a little extra pressure on the injector after the cavity is filled. Be sure to over fill the sprue and them go back and top it off again with the hot plastic. As the cavity cools you want it to draw down plastic and not air.
