There are no standard injection molding processes because it varies significantly how users prefer to optimize their process and how they prioritize parameters such as polymer type, replication fidelity, dimensional accuracy, optical properties, residual stress and cycle time. However, browsing through the [http://labmanager.dtu.dk/function.php?module=Processlog&view=editlog&machid=278 Process Log] it's usually not a problem to find a program made for the polymer and tool at hand which can be used as a starting point.
