Injection molding (IM) is a manufacturing process that produces polymeric parts by injecting molten thermoplastic polymer into a mold cavity. It mainly fabricates geometrically complicated parts with dimensional accuracy. In this paper, injection molding of carbon fiber composite automotive wheels with complex shape was investigated numerically. Insert injection molding was also considered to reduce the deformation of the part. Injection molding conditions were determined based on the simulation results such as filling time, mechanical property, and warpage for manufacturing of composite automotive wheels.
