Detailed Description

Describes irregular thickness rib issues found during injection molding design analysis.

The irregular thickness rib issues refers to a situation where the rib thickness is too big or small compared to the wall thickness. Proper thickness value is required to mitigate potential sinking issues and provide uniform cooling and shrinking.

Contains rib that fails the following condition:

\[ \large R_{min} \leq \frac{T_r}{T_w} \leq R_{max} \]

\[ \begin{aligned} & \small T_r - \text{analyzed rib thickness} \\ & \small T_w - \text{wall thickness} \\ & \small R_{min} - \text{minimum thickness to wall thickness ratio} \\ & \small R_{max} - \text{maximum thickness to wall thickness ratio} \\ \end{aligned} \]
