Hi everyone,

Can you explain details for me about elapsed time and duration?

Elapsed time is the time from starting filling to opening the mold right?

Duration is the time from the open mold to start filling in the next cycle, right?

1 cycle= filling time+ solidification time+ duration right?

Thanks

    Hello Brian,

    The duration is considered to be the time of mold is kept open. If you move your curser to the value and wait for 1-2 seconds, you will see pop-up help that explains the operations of those functionalities. 

    And also, the elapsed time is considered to be the time from start of the cycle till mold opens up.
