Result Interpretation

Flexographic Plate Permanent Compression Set Depth calculator computes Permanent Compression Set Depth in m using the defined engineering formula and the input values provided. Permanent Compression Set Depth is expressed in m. No universal acceptance threshold is defined by this calculator.

Worked Example

Verified calculation

Given:

  • Applied Load Pressure = 200000
  • Plate Thickness = 0.0025
  • Load Exposure Time = 0
  • Plate Elastic Modulus = 1200000
  • Material Relaxation Time Constant = 7200

Expected Result:

  • Permanent Compression Set Depth = 0

Engineering Interpretation:

Under the given input conditions, the calculated result is: Permanent Compression Set Depth = 0 m.

The actual numerical result is computed by the Runtime engine using the persisted tool definition. The values shown here come from deterministically validated test cases.

Formula / Method

permanent compression set depth = plate thickness * (1.0 - exp(-load exposure time / material relaxation time constant)) * (applied load pressure / plate elastic modulus)
