Cooling Time:

The cooling stage is dedicated to reducing the material temperature to the deflection temperature under flexural load, the ejection temperature. Typically,
cooling time is 70% of the total cycle time.
Diagram of stage-times for the injection molding cycle.
Two factors that affect cooling time are melt temperature and mold temperature. Increasing either temperature typically results in increased cooling time.
Plastics require long cooling times because they are good insulators with low thermal conductivities. Cooling time is proportional to the square of the part wall
thickness, doubling the thickness quadruples the cooling time. To reduce cooling times, you should make the part wall thickness uniform and as thin as safely
possible.

To display a section view of cooling time at end of fill:
1) Under RESULTS, double-click Fill Results.
2) Click Cooling Time at End of Fill.
3) Click Clipping Plane Mode .
The clipping plane mode of cooling time displays the required internal cooling times throughout the part wall (Solid Mesh only).
