Used Injection Molding Machine Selection Process
When it
comes to purchasing the right plastic injection molding machine to help with
manufacturing of plastic products, you need to look for equipment that will
increase your productivity as well as the quality of your work. Do not assume
that just about any injection molder you come across can work well. You should
take some time to learn about the different injection molding machines that are
available and choose one that will help you create efficient machining parts
constantly and beneficially.
If you
cannot afford to buy a new injection molder,
you can go for a used injection molding machine. You just need to make sure
that the used machine is in good working condition. During the selection
process, you will need to make sure that you know the particular parts that you
intend to mold with the machine. If you buy an injection molder and start using
it for molding parts that are not suitable for it, you may end up frustrated
with ongoing quality problems, slow cycle times as well as machine and mold
damage. Knowing the correct part information can be very helpful in finding the
right injection unit size, machine type and clamp tonnage requirements.
Another
thing you will need to do when looking for the right used injection molding machine is
select the right machine type. The three types of injection molding machine
designs that are available include fully electric, fully hydraulic and hybrid. In
electric injection molders, every movement is done with direct drive electric
servo motors only drawing power when movement is required. This makes them very
energy efficient. Hydraulic machines are designed by the type of clamp design,
hydraulic pump design and the presence or absence of an accumulator. The
hydraulic injection molder uses a combination of hydraulic drive and electric
direct drive.
