Explain the four types of equipment
Injection molding machines are divided into four types: horizontal injection molding machine, vertical injection molding machine, angle injection molding machine and multi-mode rotary table injection molding machine. The use methods and characteristics of each injection molding machine are different. We can give full play to the working efficiency of the equipment only by understanding each type of equipment, The following notes take you to learn more about the four types of injection molding machines.
- Horizontal injection molding machine: This is a common type. The clamping part and injection part are on the same horizontal centerline, and the mold is opened along the horizontal direction. Its features are: low fuselage, easy to operate and maintain; The center of gravity of the machine is low and the installation is stable; After the products are ejected, they can fall automatically by gravity, which is easy to realize full-automatic operation. At present, this type of injection molding machine is mostly used in the market.
- Vertical injection molding machine: its clamping part and injection part are on the same vertical centerline, and the mold is opened along the vertical direction. Therefore, it covers a small area, easy to place inserts, convenient to load and unload the mold, and the materials falling from the hopper can be plasticized evenly. However, the products are not easy to fall automatically after ejection, and must be removed by hand, which is not easy to realize automatic operation. Vertical injection molding machines are suitable for small injection molding machines. Generally, injection molding machines below 60g are more used, and large and medium-sized machines are not suitable.
- Angle injection molding machine: its injection direction is on the same surface as the mold interface. It is especially suitable for plane products in the processing center that are not allowed to leave gate traces. Its floor area is smaller than that of horizontal injection molding machine, but the inserts placed in the mold are easy to fall obliquely. This type of injection molding machine is suitable for small machines.
- Multi mode rotary table injection molding machine: it is a special injection molding machine with multi station operation. Its feature is that the clamping device adopts rotary table structure, and the mold rotates around the rotating shaft., These types of injection molding machines give full play to the plasticizing capacity of the injection device, shorten the production cycle and improve the production capacity of the machine. Therefore, they are especially suitable for the production of large quantities of plastic products with long cooling and setting time or more auxiliary time due to the placement of inserts. However, due to the large and complex clamping system, the clamping force of the clamping device is often small, Therefore, this injection molding machine is widely used in the production of plastic soles and other products.
