1.The burn marks ,underfilled areas or other cosmetics defects,which


resulted from the compressed air between the flow front in the knit-lines or at the
end of flow(the last filled area), become visible on the part surface when the
mold has been poor vented or the vents have not been designed properly. Two
major types vents used:
Individual Vents

Perimeter Venting

Individual part vents are placed around


the cavity.

Perimeter vents run around the entire


parting line, which then vents to open air.
