Injection machines used to produce PET preforms were initially offered by Cincinnati Milacron and Husky. Injection machine builders supplying machines to the PET injection-molded industry are Nestal, Mechi, Formpast, and Nissei. Husky has approximately 60% of the market. 

Injection molding machines that were used in injection molding, the HDPE base cups were Cincinnati Milacron, Husky, Nestal, Mechi, Nissei, and IM-PCO. The base cup PET container is now obsolete. 

The parts for our study were molded in 90 ton Husky horizontal injection molding machine, model number RS35/32. In conjunction with the molding machine, the thermolator used was a Dmatherm thermolator model munber DT4C09 - M5, serial number 64008. In The mold used for the study is a 12.06 cm. diameter,. 20 cm thick impact disc. The runner is a. 3175 cm. diameter parabolic runner traveling fi om the top of the disc clock-wise around half the distance of the perimeter of the part, and is fan gated at the bottom of the disc. 

The doubled optimal flow rate was then doubled again to develop even more shear within the runner. The third optimal flow rate was calculated to equal 265.63 cmVsec., and the optimal injection velocity is equal to 33.02 cmysec. The optimal injection velocity is 1 inYsec. less than exactly double the previous injection velocity. The reason for this discrepancy is the maximum injection velocity is 33.02 cmisec. on the Husky molding machine.
