Screw Type injection Moulding Machine


1. The Screw type Injection Moulding Machine consists of a hopper, a reciprocating screw and barrel
assembly, and an injection nozzle.

2.This system confines and transports the plastic as it progresses through the feeding, compressing, degassing, melting, injection and packing stages.

3. A single screw injection Moulding machine for themoplastic showing the plasticizing screw,al a barrel band heaters to heat the barrel, a stationary platen, and a movable platen.

Breaker Plate & Screen Pack :

Breaker Plate - 1. This is performed metal disk,  with a multitude of small diameter holes. 2. The breaker plate is placed in between the screw and the die assembly. 3. It's principal function is to provide support for the screen pack . 4. The breaker plate helps also to convert the spiral flow of the polymer melts leaving the screw into a linear, axial one. Screen Pack - 1. Screen Pack is usually a multilayered,  nearly symmetrical sandwich of metallic wire screens.  2. It is placed between the screw and the breaker plate,  using the latter for physical support. It's  role is to eliminate the particulate contaminants.  3. The screen pack composition is always based on trade-offs, there is need to eliminate particulates using screens with high mesh,  but at the same time this create flow restriction,  it reduced the throughput, thus low mesh would be preferred.  4. Decision should be made as for as the maximum tolerabl...

Advantage and Disadvantages of Injection Blow Moulding Process

√ Advantages - { injection Blow Moulding } 1. Accurate shaping of the neck. 2. A High level of dimensional accuracy. 3. Mini weight tolerance. 4. The highest quality surface finish. 5. Production absolutely free from waste. 6. Crystal clear containers for pharmaceutical  application. 7. Finished bottle without weld line and scrap. 8. Secondary /finishing operation can be avoided. 9. Multi-cavities can be operated. √ Disadvantages -{ injection Blow Moulding } 1. The preform design generally establish the core rod length & diameter. 2. The process is more expensive than extrusion blow moulding. 3. Compromise between preform wall thickness and blow up ratio. 4. The ratio of the maximum wall thickness to minimum wall thickness across a preform cross-section should be less than 1.5 to prevent weld lines. 5. Preform thickness greater than 6 mm is unstable during blowing since the thick section cannot be properly conditioned. 6. The technique is not suit...
