Abstract (EN): The definition of the gate location in injection molding is one of the most important factors in achieving dimensionally accuracy of the parts. This paper presents an optimization methodology for addressing this problem based on a Multi-objective Evolutionary Algorithm (MOEA). The algorithm adopted here is named Reduced Pareto Set Genetic Algorithm (RPSGA) and was used to create a balanced filling pattern using weld line characterization. The optimization approach proposed in this paper is an integration of evolutionary algorithms with Computer-Aided Engineering (CAE) software (Autodesk Moldflow Plastics software). The performance of the proposed optimization methodology was illustrated with an example consisting in the injection of a rectangular part with a non-symmetrical hole. The numerical results were experimentally assessed. Physical meaning was obtained which guaranteed a successful process optimization.
