Early Cost
Estimating for Injection Moulding - Along with providing the component cost of an
injection moulded part, these module estimates the mould cost, processing cost and
materials cost for the part.
Process parameters, such as optimum number of cavities, set up time, set up cost,
and mould time are also estimated by the software. This valuable information allows
your designers to clearly see the cost impact of tolerance and finish specifications
which can then be optimised by playing "what if" games.
Our users have also found this software useful in evaluating vendor quotes.

Clamp Size
Calculations
The Clamp size
calculation screen is where you enter information for the T.A.M.E.S. program to
calculate a required clamp size based on your information, this can be
considerably accurate if the right information is given during this input stage.
Cycle Time
Calculations
The Cycle time
calculation module allows the Injection molder to quickly calculate cycle times in
minutes what would of been prohibitive in the past due to the lengthy formulas
involved.
Now selecting a few parameters you can calculate cycle times from 1 to 100 cavities
with section a
thickness from .5mm to 5mm and cavity diameters upto 2000 mm. In most of the
available material types.
