does injection pressure increase the pressure at the cavity when the cavity is not filled? My understanding is that until the mold is filled completely and plastic can move around, the injection pressure will be higher than the pressure inside the cavity. When you say injection pressure, where and how is it being measured?

it's so refreshing to see it in the industrial sense. I've really only seen them in academic labs. Very helpful video to get out of the academic bubble.

The saddest thing is that eDART is retiring after 20 years in the industry and in 2024 there are still companies around the World like mine that have no idea about it and no injection mold has even a single sensor placed in the cavity...
Where can I buy this device for melt temperature measurement?
You can purchase this here www.plasticmelttemp.com/
1st step is to look inside the mold for and plastic stuck or crushed.
I can't get my white to melt in lense mould using advance400 mixing uv protection and white never had an issue before someone fiddled
Hi. Any in depth intros to molding and how the different machine parts work? I'm still very new to this and I have a job in a mold room. Still a bit Greek to me. Thank you!!1
This was super helpful
Good job, enjoyed your story telling to convey knowledge
If the orifice on the mold sprue bushing is 7/32nds and the nozzle tip orifice is 5/32nds would this be suitable or cause an issue with injection pressure?
Hello sir, can I talk with you about injection molding machine
Answer.. parts out of spec?
The Answer to parts being out of spec has as many answers as the universe has start. To boil it down , one or more of the 4 plastics variables are not where they were when the parts were good. Then that is caused by the condition of the plastic resin or one of the hundreds of machine settings. If you have some specific situations , we could offer some quality consulting to help come to a solution.
Thanks for useful sharing. How can we measure melt temperature with IR thermometer?
You can purge out the machine and aim the laser at the purge. The downside to this is the setting for the reflectivity of the plastic. The IR gun can give a reading that is not always 100% accurate (although it is often close enough). The positive of using an IR gun is the safety and repeatability of that technique.
Definitely some good ideas but this only covers the basics and i know you said simple but the mold design is pretty simple. Some molds take a very long time to properly clean especially if there are multiple injection units and many different core positions to be set once clamped depending on how often you are cycling a press too it will not matter how often you try to clean the tool to prevent corosion or rusting is a definite enivitablity at that point you need to have a good tool shop to properly pm the mold internally there are just some things you cannot prevent due to mold design and your just going to have to pull the mold to be worked on
To add to its yes very basic molds can be cleaned very quickly with cleaners but some moldshave very deep cavities and intricate slides or cams that may take a great deal of effort to clean around without taking the mold apart don't know much about the mold but it looks like a thin wall type of mold can really see the A half of the mold so it's difficult to tell but looks like a beginner mold to me
The best way I've found to clean difficult molds, that have alot of gassing in the vents is to first dry wipe the mold than use and cleaner like acetone, 99 percent alcohol is the best, 70 can work but not that great, always put alot of effort into cleaning the vents always clean as close to the cores as possible If you touch them but they may need polished after if the leaders pins slides cams horns or wear plates are black dry or corroded due to cycling its best to grease the to prevent mold protects or ejector faults, depending on the mold or type of material running through it saliva can remove some gassing pretty easily if there's significant building up the vents you can clean it with acetone depending on the mold and scrap anything you can't get out with brass or even more delicate molds sometimes wood also wood works very well with polishing compound after you clean the vents really good sometimes polishing them is good to prevent future buildup in the mold there's alot of different ways to do it suppose it depends on the person but the simple mold you sprayed cleaner in alot of people would be absolutely terrified to do that
HI,How to safety updated many lifters in many ejections’ injection mold ? We designed [lifters calculators] and [import lifters calculator file] to solve it. Feel free to use and share it.Thanks. www.fsmold.com lnkd.in/evTHR5Gm
Amazing video!!!
We're so glad you enjoyed it! Thank you for watching!
Not enough clamping pressure. Mold to hot or possibly over hesting of the nold. There are so mwny variables eheb it comes to plastics that's why i love it. Actual mold damahe cojld cause flashing too
Great video. Does using larger diameter channels help or hinder If you have a large mold with 1/2npt lines and 1"npt baffles, vs 3/8"npt channels and 3/4" baffles. Some of my customers want bigger holes but if you can't feed it with proper gpm/pressure, the flow may not be strong enough. I notice on North American molds, it's always big lines, 500 series fittings and 3/4 id hose. Then I saw Euro and Asian molds of similar size and it's 10mm water lines with smaller clear plastic hose as they can't use same type of hose we have in NA
Thanks for watching and your kind words. To answer your question regarding 1/2npt lines and 1"npt baffles, vs 3/8"npt channels and 3/4" baffles, it truly depends on gpm/pressure that you mentioned. It would be helpful to know the gpm/pressure that the mold temperature control unit is dispersing at a minimum, and this can be achieved by in-line flowmeters similar to what Smart Flow offer. If the gpm continues to rise the larger 1/2npt hole could provide more adequate heat transfer. On the other hand, if the gpm is reduced when using the 1/2npt hole it could result in much lower heat transfer. NA vs Euro/Asia mold cooling can drastically differ in channel size, as mentioned about bigger is not always better unless you have the GPM and Pressure to back up the larger lines. A constant Depth, Diameter, and Pitch for colling lines also plays a role in effective heat transfer, so it is recommended that mold filling simulation is preformed by a qualified individual utilizing the mold attributes such as cooling line placement and mold material to understand the best scenario for mold cooling.
they're great!
😊
interesting! what's the difference between specific and back pressure?
Video is very helpful, thanks. I have a question though, Duponts nylon guide says to use the maximum pressure for the holding stage. This bottoms out the screw though. Or if I increase the shot size too far I get flash. Should I not use such a high pressure?
Another thing i have seen is guys increase the shot size when the shit goes short and i have to fix the fucking nozzle leak plastic everywhere!
Flash could be caused by a lot. Over venting the mold, big shot size, barrel heates too high, or mold damage/tool damage. Shorts are usually just not a big enough shot but usually if you are short on one side and flasing on the other there is a problem with the mold or how the press is leveled.
You forgot the real reason for Back Pressure - air will travel to the area of least resistance - no bp - air goes to the front of the screw
Clamp tonnage not set right and mold cooling working correctly will cause flash....now is the die-height set correctly is your lockup position correct. Do you have a broken tie-bar and is the mold there damage causing the flash?
Please make a detailed video that how a molding machine works …like each step …injection pressure ,injection speed ,injection position in barrel ,screw recovery back pressure suck back
That's a great idea!! We'll add it to our list. Thanks!! 😁
Sir u mean we should fill the part by using two profiles?
Poly is easy to mold. Try 14 inch cpvc sch 80 tees 😅.
Sad times, I will miss the edart
It's bittersweet for sure... We're excited for the future, though!
excellent explanation, thank you
We're so glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching!
thank you for your presentation. I would like to ask you, what do you recommend to use instead of safety couplings?
why dont you do one course in algeria ? alot of people here are interessted in the injection machines
Thank you for the suggestion!! We'll pass it along to our training team! 🙂
I never was a big fan of flash… kind of a wimp, only power he had was speed, but Superman was just as fast if not even faster
Hahaha! And this is why we want to keep him AWAY from our plastic parts! 🤣
Great video. Just wondering why there is 2ejection cycles instead of one?.... lol
My best guess is that it is because the product might not fall of at first ejection :)
We call them cams. Never heard of a slide.
Same difference
Ahh perfect. Building a machine myself and this was a question ive had that hasnt been well answered or addressed. Thanks
Awesome!! We're so happy it was helpful to you! Thanks for watching!
Too much hold pressure or hold time will cause flash also incorrect shot size and not enough tonnage
So after that semi confusing information you advise to not adjust backpressure? All that nonsense about 'drying the material' via the back pressure setting was just added confusing drivel too. Hygroscopic material needs to bd suitably prepared and conditioned pre moulding, end of. Backpressure is purely an adjustable parameter to ensure consistency in melt preparation. Multiple factors can add inconsistency, wear, polymer, additives and environmental changes. You should use scientific optimisation to determine the ideal backpressure for each and every product you trial/run. Once the process is optimised and passed IQ there is no reason to adjust backpressure (or anything else for that matter) as any defects witnessed at this stage during normal production will stem from an underlying issure that needs revolving NOT by adjusting machine settings. Setters/techs - Dont piss about with machine settings if production was running fine beforehand, examine route cause first. Only once everything has been tripple checked should you consider batch to batch material variation and make minute changes to settings while informing your process engineer.
Andrew, I think we agree on this. We teach a scientific, systematic methodology to find the optimal BP. My stories are there to provide context from my mistakes early in my career. Over my years of instructing, I have found that some people need a direct to the point piece of information and some of us like a story or analogy to drive the point home. Us molders are a tight knit community, we have to pass on what we are learning to the next generation. Thank you for the feed back. - Jason
@rjg I'll be honest Jason, RJG are highly regarded in the UK as a training centre, that's why I watched the video. Are you related (same company)? My comment was almost to distinguish if you were a professional outfit and by your reply, you are. I appreciate you taking the time to reply and it seems we very likely are of the same thoughts. There's many ways to get your point across, I guess for me if you'd explain the optimisation through systematic study first then discussed past wrong doings I may have felt differently, but that's just my opinion, not necessarily the right one.
@@user-mk4nm8yl3u Yes, we are the same company! We have offices around the globe, including the UK. We appreciate you watching and providing feedback! We certainly take it all into consideration. We hope you have a great day!
this video was very informative , didnt know that you had to grease the leader pins . Could you use alchol for an alternative cleaning solution for the mold .
We're so glad you found it helpful! You can use alcohol. The best is to use 80% or higher. Mold cleaner is another option. 🙂
How long does resin needs to dry before going into production.
Thanks for watching! Each material data sheet lists the required drying time and temperature. There is not one standard for all materials. 🙂
Excellent lecture.
We're so happy you enjoyed it, thanks for watching!
