Sumitomo (SHI) Demag to showcase the new IntElect2 S
Sumitomo Demag @ All4Pack, hall 7, D059
The production cell designed as a complete solution
around the IntElect S 180 produces decorative lids for
food containers. Sumitomo (SHI) Demag is presenting
this exhibit in a joint project with Rouxel as the injection
compression mould manufacturer, Machines Pagès as
a specialist for high-speed extraction robots and downstream
moulded part handling, Verstraete as experts for
decorative labels.
During injection compression moulding,
plasticised material is already introduced into the cavity
prior to complete locking of the mould. The machine closing
movement aids distribution of plasticised material in
the cavity, reduces the injection pressure requirement and
the required clamping force, ensures that the pressure is
distributed evenly and, as a consequence, reduces residual
stress in the fi nished part. Warping 3 due to shrinkage
is less pronounced as a result, reducing the wall thicknesses
and weight of the moulded part. Compression at
the highest mould and injection movement velocity, termed
speed compression, is a particular challenge for the injection
moulding machine and its sensors, control and drive
technology. Despite the high speeds involved, the machine
guarantees to deliver a high degree of precision and exact
reproducibility from cycle to cycle.
