An injection molding system (1000) comprising: an actuator (5) having a housing (20) comprised of radial (20r, 20ri, 20ro, 20roa, 20rob, 20roc, 20rod) and axial walls (20a, 20ai, 20aue, 20ade) that form an enclosed chamber (45) containing a heat conductive chamber fluid (CF), a rotor and driver driven by electrical energy and supported within the chamber by the radial and axial walls, wherein one or more of the radial and axial walls comprise a heat conductive material that has an inner surface disposed in heat conductive contact with the heat conductive fluid (CF) contained within the enclosed chamber, an actuator tube or channel (25) disposed within the one or more of the radial and axial walls, a source (260) of heat absorptive fluid (25f) sealably interconnected to the actuator tube or channel (25).

An injection molding condition generation system improves the quality of injection molding. The injection molding condition generation system acquires a material property value of a resin material and an injection molding condition using the first resin material based on a target value of a quality parameter related to a quality of a molded article, the first material property value, and a predetermined relational expression. The predetermined relational expression indicates a relation among the material property value of the resin material, a plurality of injection molding conditions input to an injection molding machine, and a quality parameter related to the quality of the molded article molded by the injection molding machine based on the material property value and the injection molding conditions, and is generated based on data accumulated in the memory in association with the material property value of the resin material, the injection molding conditions, and the quality parameter.

A polymeric composition is disclosed. The composition can include (a) at least 95 wt. % of a polypropylene, (b) a clarifying agent, and (c) a nucleating agent, wherein the presence of the clarifying agent and nucleating agent in the polymeric composition decreases the haze value, as determined by ASTM D1003 at a thickness of 40-80 mil, of the polymeric composition when compared with the haze value of the polymeric composition having the clarifying agent but not the nucleating agent.
