Frequency Inverter for plastic injection and rubber molding machines
Applications
Plastics injection machine, hollow forming machine, press casting machine, hydraulic machine, squeezing machine, crushing machine, extrusion machine, forming machine, sealing machine, film blowing machine, bag blowing machine, bag weaving machine, hydraulic press machine etc.
Basic principle
The energy consumption of injection machine is divided into 4 parts:
Main power equipment
% of Power consumption
Energy-saving by inverter
Power consumption for oil pump of hydraulic system
75 - 80 %
O
Power consumption of heating system
10 - 15 %
X
Power consumption of cooling water pump
5 - 10 %
O
Power consumption of other signal controller
1 - 5 %
X
A hydraulic pump uses over 75% of total power consumption. Although the amount of oil applied by a hydraulic pump is fixed, the demand of the oil during the injection process is varied. By stallingthe inverter technology, the power consumption can be obviously reduced, and the production efficiency can be improved.
Inverter Advantages
Save up to 25-65% of total power consumption. Improve the production efficiency. Accelerate the investment return.
Reduce the starting current of a motor. Scenario can be seeing significantly when a power generator is used.
The hydraulic oil temperature obviously drops 5°C-15°C to extend the lifetime of oil seal, and also to reduce the consumption of cooling water.
Smooth start to reduce the hydraulic pressure impact. Effectively reduce noise and equipment failure rate.
Shorten the production cycle and increase the productivity under specific molding conditions.
After installing the inverter, the operational process is as same as before.
Injection Procedure
Actually, the pressure, flow rate of injectionmachine is varied at lock mold, injecting,cooling, open mold, pin inject, and clearing. During time of mold open , cooling and clear, inverter could lower the RPM of oil pump, eliminate oil overflow and the temperature of hydraulic oil also can be reduced at the same time.
