The injection blow molding machine is used to produce all kinds of cans and small bottles, especially medical and sanitary bottles and droppers. Specifically, an injection blow molding machine relates to the production of an injection blow molding machine product that has at least two thermoplastic layers of different materials and is a process for manufacturing the product.
Production steps by injection blow molding machine
Hollow products, such as containers, bottles, vials, etc., are usually produced by injection molding processes. A typical injection blow molding process usually includes three main processing steps, namely injection molding, blow molding, and product extrusion. Generally, in the first step, a molten polymer parison is injected onto the core pin, which is placed between the upper and lower injection molds in the first step, to produce a preform. Then, in the second step, the preform is placed between an upper and lower blow mold, and gas is injected into the preform through the core pin to produce a hollow thermoplastic material. Finally, the hollow thermoplastic material is removed from the core pin.
Injection
The injection molding machine is based on an extruder tube and a screw assembly that melts the polymer. Molten polymer enters a manifold where it is injected through nozzles into a heated hollow preform mold. The periform mold forms the outer shape and is closed around a mandrel (core rod) that forms the inner shape of the preform. The preform consists of a fully formed bottle/can neck with a thick polymer tube attached to form the body.
blowing
The preform mold is opened and the core rod is rotated and closed in the empty and cold blow mold. The core rod opens and allows compressed air to enter the preform, which blow it into the shape of the final product.
Product departure
After a cooling period, the blow mold is opened and the core rod rotates to the bounce position. The produced product is separated from the core rod and leak tested before packaging. The preform and blow mold can have many cavities, typically three to sixteen cavities depending on the product size and output required. There are three sets of core bars that allow for simultaneous preform injection, blow molding and splicing.
Products produced by injection blow molding machine
Hollow thermoplastic products made with an injection blow molding machine have the same material composition on the inner and outer surfaces. When a molten polymer is injected into a mold cavity through a nozzle, the material is deposited on the inner surfaces of the mold cavity as well as on the surface of the core pin that is positioned between the upper and lower mold cavities. The polymer surrounding the core pin eventually becomes the inner layer of the hollow material, and the polymer layer surrounding the cavity surfaces of the mold eventually becomes the outer layer of the hollow material.
injection blow molding machine processes
It is also well known that they use two or more substances at the same time during the injection process. For example, two different materials can be melted in separate injection barrels and flowed to the mold through separate runner systems. Hollow thermoplastic products used in the packaging industry benefit greatly from the co-injection process. For example, bottles made for beverages have two or more layers of material, at least one of which is a gas barrier layer sandwiched between two or more layers with different material compositions than the barrier layer. However, the co-injection process creates hollow thermoplastic items that have the same material composition on the interior and exterior surfaces of the product when the injection molding process is complete. When the second molten polymer is injected, it flows between the layers formed by the first polymer around the core pin and mold cavities, and the second polymer becomes an intermediate layer.
Advanced technology of injection blow molding machine
The material properties of the internal and external surfaces of hollow thermoplastic items, also known as “surface technology”, have become increasingly important in various industries. For example, in the healthcare industry, it is often desirable that the interior surface of containers carrying liquids such as aqueous fluids, pharmaceuticals, or body fluids have properties that differ from the exterior surface of the container. In particular, materials that exhibit hydrophobic behavior can prevent water in aqueous solutions from wetting or sticking to the inner surface of the container, thus ensuring a constant drug dosage concentration. Materials that exhibit hydrophilic behavior can prevent proteins from sticking to the inner surface of the container. In another example, compatible materials can prevent blood platelets from sticking to the surface of the dish. Alternatively, a chemically resistant material can be chosen as the inner surface of the container. This material can be specifically selected to bind or resist a particular chemical. In other applications, surface technology can play an important role in aesthetics, for example, where two or more colors are used throughout the piece. Therefore, it is desirable to produce a hollow thermoplastic product that has inner and outer layers of different material combinations, while taking advantage of the productivity advantages offered by the injection molding process.
Raw materials used in injection blow molding machine
The thermoplastic raw materials used in the injection process of injection blow molding machine are in the form of pellets or small granules that are first melted and turned into a hollow tube called parison. injection blow molding machine parts and products can be manufactured from a wide variety of thermoplastic materials, including: polyethylene (low density) LDPE, LLDPE polypropylene PP polyethylene-terephthalate PET polyvinyl chloride PVC polyethylene (high density) HDPE
injection blow molding machine applications
injection blow molding machine can be used to produce different types of products. The products produced by the injection blow molding machine process are generally plastic, hollow and thin-walled. These types of products are used regularly and are available in different shapes and sizes. The most widely used injection blow molding machine products are: medicine cans, eye drop bottles, roller ball bottles, Comestic bottles, gum bottles, baby bottles, water and soft drink bottles, shampoo bottles, oil bottles, milk containers, storage tanks, plastic drums and…
Now that the desired product is determined, it is necessary to decide in what dimensions and with what circulation you want to produce. After estimating the above-mentioned items, it is determined what device(s) you should buy and as a result, how much space you will need to build the workshop.
