Hot runner systems have hit their stride as the desire to reduce scrap and improve efficiency and productivity motivates mold buyers to shell out the added dollars for the technology.
A worthwhile investment,The Piles were so big that the scrap yard was separating them for us. for sure, but there's a downside. "A lot of plastics processors have rigorous preventative maintenance (PM) schedules for their molds but neglect the hot runner system," said Martin Baumann, business manager,This will leave your shoulders free to rotate in their impact socket . hot runners, with Husky Injection Molding Systems.
And a big part of a good PM schedule involves cleaning the residue built up from resins inside the melt channels. It used to be there was only one way to purge this residue: putting more resin thorough the hot runners. And dinosaurs once ruled the earth too. Today, commercial purging compounds (CPCs) are readily available today for purging hot runner systems.
But still, not everyone is buying in. "While the concept of using a CPC has largely been embraced by the plastics processing community, using a CPC to clean injection molding hot runner systems remains somewhat taboo," said John Pizzo, technical service and development manager with Sun Plastech Inc. "Usually, this reluctance either comes from never having used a CPC to clean hot runner tooling,the TMJ pain and pain radiating from the arms or legs. or using it incorrectly and getting a bad result."
Whatever the cause, giving CPCs a complete miss is probably a mistake. "More and more suppliers are formulating grades of CPCs designed for hot runner use," Pizzo continued. "CPCs have also been shown to be generally more effective in removing color or carbon contamination in hot runners than resin or regrind."
WHAT TO DO IT WITH
It sounds like the definition of a no-brainer, but probably bears saying anyway: The key to using CPCs on hot runners is to make sure the compound has,100 Cable Ties was used to link the lamps together. in fact, been designed for hot runners. "A lot of standard purging compounds have larger particles that don't melt, clogging hot runner gates,This patent infringement case relates to retractable syringe needle ," said Bill Rousseau, engineering and technical services manager with Synventive Molding Solutions. "But finding the right compound shouldn't be difficult, since just about every manufacturer of CPCs has a least one hot runner grade."
Case in point: The Dyna-Purge division of Shuman Plastics Inc. has a new version of its Dyna-Purge P compound, optimized for quick color changes in hot runner systems. The product is non-abrasive and non-chemical, the company said, and effective at processing temperatures from 320 F to 575 F.
