New Design Possibilities in Moldmaking

Products intended for use in building services must meet very high quality requirements in terms of both their constituent materials and functionality. A single-cavity mold for a floor grate made by Barku, which appears to be a simple part at first glance, called for a certain level of technical sophistication. This was provided by a moldmaker with the necessary technical understanding and hot-runner manufacturer Witosa who, between them, devised the right solution for what proved nevertheless to be a complex mold.

The new Reverse Cube developed by Foboha manufactures various components or multi-component parts from varying materials in one step and assembles individual parts into finished products independently from the cycle time using an integrated handling robot. The automated process improves quality, accelerates cycle times by up to 40 % compared to separate injection molding and assembly processes, and thus enables substantial productivity gains at lower costs.

The company Leonhard Kurz is a specialist in the development and production of decorative and functional coatings for plastics applications, which are applied by means of carrier foils during injection molding. Essential objectives of the company are technology and process development as well as the optimization of the 3D foil forming around corners and the contours of the plastic parts. For this purpose, Kurz operates an extensive injection molding technology center. New in the machinery: two production cells based on servo-hydraulic injection molding machines from Wittmann Battenfeld.

Infrared heating technology has become established as the standard in the processing of thermoplastic composite materials. The focus is on process control. On the one hand, it is important that the heating process is fast, on the other hand, the material must not be overheated. It is also important to achieve excellent temperature homogeneity. Simultaneous processing of blanks with different thicknesses is a particular challenge.

Husky introduces the UltraShot Injection System

According to the company, the UltraShot Injection System provides part design freedom, while improving part quality and speed of mold qualification.

Husky Injection Molding Systems, Ltd., Bolton, ON/Canada, presents its new injection system. As stated in a press release, the UltraShot Injection System’s injection control technology enables risk-free scalability with flawless part capability. Identical system behavior for each injection circuit provides process condition consistency with cavitation scaling. A predictable process from pilot to high cavitation – scalable to 128 cavities, enables producers to maximize cavitation without negative performance on balance or shot-to-shot variation.

The new injection system enables users to produce unconstrained, highly functional and validated parts, economically, where conventional injection molding processes cannot. This innovative cavity filling control and process optimization overcomes traditional constraints of pressure, L/T and difficult-to-mold resins. This enables part lightweighting for resin and process time savings and provides resin selection flexibility.

Compared to conventional hot runners, melt in the UltraShot Injection System experiences fewer high-pressure injection cycles, thus preserving the original resin properties. This leads to lower mold-in stress and better mechanical and optical properties in the molded part.

Powered by the Altanium Mold Controller, the new system reportedly provides highly advanced process monitoring and control for injection molding. The Altanium process control provides repeatability and traceability for part dimension consistency, good balance and a more stable process. Providing digital analysis creates a measurable discipline around the molding process and gives users full control and trend analysis of various processes resulting in improved, lower risk operations.
