Injection Moulding
Injection moulding is a highly efficient manufacturing process that enables the production of complex, high-quality plastic components with precision and consistency. Utilising advanced automation and robotics, this technology is essential for industries requiring large-scale production, ensuring cost-effective solutions without compromising on the integrity or performance of the final product.
The Main Advantages of Electrical Injection Moulding
When it comes to the injection moulding process, consistency, repeatability and accuracy represent key criteria for most manufacturers. Electric injection moulding machines excel in this regard. More stable than hydraulic machines, they provide the ability to achieve precision moulding using consistent sets of parameters which, once set, are monitored and controlled by the machine. Ensuring improved parts quality, these machines achieve the same high-quality results every time and, given greatly reduced manual input, also benefit from improved uptimes and cycle times. In addition to these advantages, good electric injection moulding machines offer a range of additional features and benefits that make them more efficient still.
Benefits
Benefits for your Business
Wear monitoring
Machines capable of measuring backflow, provide operators with the opportunity to change the no-return valve before problems with the injection moulding process lead to poor parts quality.
Precise plasticising
Achieving extremely consistent part weights even when viscosities are varied requires precise digital control of the screw.
Prevent mould damage
To avoid costly repairs and protect the mould clamp and ejector mechanisms, intelligent functions on some injection moulding machines monitor the torque applied to them, preventing damage should this increase beyond certain parameters.
Improve your cycle times
To ensure you benefit from improved cycle times, machines should come with functions such as pre-injection, pre-ejection and parallel movements.
Adding inserts is easy
More complex applications often require inserts or labels to be added. As part of a moulding cell, some state-of-the-art machines can be easily supplemented with robots that pick and place these inserts very precisely at high speed
Mould validation
Validating your moulds guarantees perfect moulding parameters, ensuring you get acheive the best possible results right from the start.
Prevent mistakes ahead of time
Use a mould test to define the best injection moulding process before you start production. This ensures that all parameters correspond perfectly and you obtain the best results from your process.
Produce different types of part on one machine
Trade moulders and manufacturers no longer need different machines to produce different kinds of parts. Some injection moulding machines are so versatile that they will produce anything from extremely precise and delicate items like camera lenses to products that require high levels of exertive force to produce (such as battery cases).
