What Is Jetting in Injection Molding?<\/h2>\n

Jetting is a surface defect where molten plastic enters the mold cavity as a narrow, high-velocity jet instead of spreading out in a smooth, expanding melt front. The result is a distinctive snake-like or worm-track pattern on the part surface, usually visible near the gate area. In our factory, jetting is one of the most recognizable defects\u2014once you\u2019ve seen it, you never mistake it for anything else.<\/p>\n

\n \"Examples
Injection molding defects\u2014jetting creates distinctive surface patterns<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The jet of plastic flies across the cavity and folds back on itself as it piles up against the opposite wall. Because the jetted material has partially cooled during its flight, it doesn\u2019t fuse properly with the material that fills in around it. This creates visible lines, rough texture, and potentially weak spots where the jetted stream meets the bulk fill.<\/p>\n

What Causes Jetting to Occur?<\/h2>\n

Jetting happens when the enjeksiyon h\u0131z\u0131<\/a>1<\/a><\/sup> is too high relative to the gate geometry, causing the melt to squirt through the gate rather than flow against the nearest cavity wall. We\u2019ve identified several specific conditions that create jetting.<\/p>\n

The single most common cause we see is a small gate (pinpoint or submarine) directing melt into a large open cavity with no opposing wall nearby. The melt has nowhere to contact and spread\u2014so it jets.<\/p>\n

<\/svg> \u201cJetting is purely a cosmetic defect and has no effect on part strength.\u201d<\/b>Yanl\u0131\u015f<\/span><\/p>\n

While jetting is highly visible as a surface defect, the jetted material doesn\u2019t fuse well with surrounding material because it has partially cooled during free flight. This creates weak boundaries within the part, potentially reducing impact strength by 20\u201340% in the affected area. Parts with severe jetting can fail under stress at the jet-to-bulk interface.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

<\/svg> \u201cReducing the initial injection speed is the fastest and most effective process fix for jetting.\u201d<\/b>Do\u011fru<\/span><\/p>\n

By slowing the injection speed to 10\u201330% of normal during the first 5\u201315% of cavity fill, the melt enters gently enough to contact the nearest cavity wall and establish proper fountain flow. Once fountain flow is established, speed can be ramped up to normal for the remainder of the fill.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

How Do You Adjust Process Parameters to Prevent Jetting?<\/h2>\n

Process adjustments are the first line of defense against jetting because they don\u2019t require mold modifications. We\u2019ve developed a proven sequence that resolves jetting in 80% of cases through machine settings alone.<\/p>\n

\n \"Injection
Precise machine control is essential for preventing jetting<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

1. Use Multi-Stage Injection Speed:<\/strong> This is the most effective fix. Set the first stage (0\u201315% of fill) to 10\u201330% of normal injection speed. Once the melt has established contact with the cavity wall and formed proper fountain flow<\/a>2<\/a><\/sup>, ramp up to full speed for the remaining fill.<\/p>\n

2. Increase Melt Temperature:<\/strong> Raise barrel temperature by 10\u201320\u00b0C. Lower viscosity at higher temperature means the melt is less likely to form a coherent jet\u2014it spreads out more readily on entering the cavity.<\/p>\n

3. Increase Mold Temperature:<\/strong> Raise mold temperature by 10\u201315\u00b0C. A warmer mold surface helps the melt spread instead of solidifying on contact, promoting adhesion between the initial jet (if any) and subsequent fill.<\/p>\n

4. Reduce Holding Pressure Switch Position:<\/strong> If you\u2019re switching from injection to holding pressure too late, the melt is still being injected at high velocity when jetting occurs. Adjust the V\/P switchover point to reduce the high-speed fill phase.<\/p>\n

5. Ensure Proper Nozzle Temperature:<\/strong> A cold nozzle can create a cold slug that blocks the gate, then breaks free as a projectile followed by high-velocity melt. Maintain nozzle temperature at or slightly above barrel temperature.<\/p>\n

What Gate Design Changes Eliminate Jetting?<\/h2>\n

If process adjustments don\u2019t fully resolve jetting, gate design is almost always the root cause. The right gate design prevents jetting by directing the melt against a cavity wall immediately upon entry, establishing fountain flow from the start.<\/p>\n

The most reliable anti-jetting gate design is one where the melt enters the cavity and immediately hits an opposing wall within 2\u20133 mm. This forces the melt to spread out and establish fountain flow. When we design new molds for jetting-prone geometries, we always specify gate orientation toward the nearest cavity wall.<\/p>\n

\n

<\/svg> \u201cIncreasing the injection speed helps solve jetting because it forces the melt to fill faster.\u201d<\/b>Yanl\u0131\u015f<\/span><\/p>\n

Increasing injection speed makes jetting worse, not better. Jetting is caused by excessive melt velocity through the gate. The correct approach is to decrease the initial injection speed to allow the melt to contact the cavity wall and establish fountain flow before ramping up speed for the remainder of the fill.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

<\/svg> \u201cA tab gate or fan gate design virtually eliminates jetting by spreading the melt entry across a wider area.\u201d<\/b>Do\u011fru<\/span><\/p>\n

Fan gates and tab gates distribute the melt across a wider cross-section, dramatically reducing the local velocity at the gate entry point. Fan gates spread melt across the full part width, while tab gates absorb the initial high-velocity jet in a sacrificial tab that is trimmed after molding.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

What Role Does Material Choice Play in Jetting?<\/h2>\n

Material viscosity and flow characteristics significantly influence jetting tendency. In our experience, lower-viscosity materials are more prone to jetting because they flow more easily through small gate openings at high velocity.<\/p>\n
