Sometimes the bottom 1 and or second row would fill and be fine. However the rest would be missing the tail and as it went to the top there would be less plastic.
I tried going slower and faster adjusted the temperature.
Just to make sure I was doing things right I did a full cavity injection. With success. But not with the lamination plate.
Also when I took off the lamination plate the tails that did work, very few, they came out of the mold and had to be put back in.
Very hard to put the tails that are small back in the mold. Nearly impossible.
Also will a dual injection work on this mold.
