Description
In the realm of injection molding, the air compressor stands as a cornerstone. Whether it’s toy molds, shoe molds, container molds, plastic wood molds, tube embryo molds, aerospace molds, clothing molds, automotive molds, or agricultural tool molds, the air compressor is indispensable across industries.
The injection process involves melting plastic (a viscous flowing state) and using a screw (or plunger) to inject it into a closed mold cavity, where it solidifies to form the product. This is a cyclical process, primarily consisting of: feeding - melting and plasticizing - pressure injection - mold filling and cooling - mold opening and product removal. After the plastic part is removed, the mold is closed, and the cycle begins anew.
The role of the air compressor in the operation of an injection molding machine is primarily seen in non-hydraulic systems, where it’s used in two stages per cycle: pressure injection and mold opening for product removal. Moreover, air compressors are also utilized, along with air guns, to prevent the injection molding machine from rusting.
There’s another vital application of compressed air in the injection molding process: the gas-assisted injection molding technology. This technology is suitable for a wide range of thermoplastics and general engineering materials used in injection molding, such as PS, HIPS, PP, ABS, etc. It’s widely applied in various plastic products like TV and refrigerator shells, air conditioner or audio casings, automotive parts, home appliances, daily necessities, and toys. This technology harnesses the characteristics of compressed air provided by the air compressor, significantly enhancing the efficiency and quality of injection-molded products.
