【 摘 要 】

With the development of layer manufacturing technologies injection mold inserts with conformal cooling channels can be manufactured. If the cooling channels can be placed along the geometry, the heat removal is uniform and effective. In tight mold regions, formation of cooling channel is not possible or not efficient. The combination of conformal cooling and heat conductive insert can be an ideal solution for the effective cooling.
