Science technology make the power, innovate the exquisite products
STEP plastic drop molding solutions introducing:
Plastic drop molding technology is the use of thermoplastic polymer materials with state variable characteristics, that is, under certain conditions with viscosity, and at the room temperature can be restored to solid characteristics, and use the appropriate methods and special tools to inkjet, in the state of viscous flow form, according to the requirements of the shape of the design, and then curing molding at room temperature.
STEP Motion Control Division depends on the numerical control processing technology, the manual dispensing link in the plastic drop process is replaced by the automatic dispensing machine, which greatly improves the efficiency of production.
Pic 1 Plastic drop molding machine
As shown in the picture, the drop molding machine adopts gantry design, which is mainly composed of the bed, operation and control system, X/Y/Z three-axis movement system (servo system drives ball screw transmission), feeding module and dispensing module.
The operation and control system mainly provides the functions such as G code map processing, motion trajectory planning, dispensing valve dripping process control, HMI handheld touch and button control graphics processing flow and other functions.
The AC servo system of the X/Y/Z three-axis motion system receives the instruction information from the control system, and after power amplification and shaping processing, it is converted into the linear displacement movement of the execution parts of the drop molding machine. Its performance will directly affect the precision and speed of the drop molding machine
Technical indicators, requiring good rapid response performance, accurate and sensitive tracking controller issued by the digital instruction signal, and can faithfully execute the instructions from the upper controller, improve the dynamic following characteristics and static tracking accuracy of the system.
Plastic drop molding machine depends on X/Y/Z three axis movement system to PVC paste dispensing needle to the specified position of the drop mold, and by controlling the time of extrusion paste resin and the speed of needle movement to control the amount of dispensing. In order to achieve a certain dispensing effect. The relevant operation process is as follows:
