Flexible configurationSeveral different positions of the injection units with respect to one another are possi-ble. These are freely combinable, as the mould and process technology requires.

Solutions with up to six components have already been realised.

Central user interfaceWith the SELOGICA control system, users have direct access to all parameters, includ-ing those of all the injection units. All mould functions and robotic systems can be pro-grammed via the graphic sequence editor in the same way as additional machine axes. Complex sequences are made transparent and comprehensive process optimisation is ensured. In the case of multi-station moulds, for example, start-up and emptying cycles

can be programmed both freely and easily. This also applies in conjunction with robotic systems and when not all injection units are in use. For quality assurance purposes, the parts status is communicated from station to station. This allows reject parts to be reli-ably detected. An additional benefit: there is only one data record for the complete pro-duction unit, including accessories such as rotary units or robotic systems.

Precisely tailored: silicone injection moulding

Further information: Silicone injection moulding brochure

The quality and cost-effectiveness of your production can only be as good as the components you use. You can fully rely on ARBURG injection moulding technology for the processing of liquid or solid silicones. Everything from a single source: the ALLROUNDER machine, which is pre-cisely adapted to your LSR or HTV application, plus any dosage, vacuum and removing technology or complete automation solutions that you might require. For this purpose, we work closely with the applicable leading manufacturers within the sector. With our comprehensive process expertise, we can save you a great deal of work This way, you don’t have just any pro-duction solution, but the very best one, at your disposal.

Perfect HTV processingThe INJESTER tamping devices have been developed for the automatic feeding of paste-like materials. They contribute to-wards optimum pre-compression and to minimising air and gas occlusions. This keeps the articles free from voids and their surfaces flawless. Here, ARBURG offers a variety of INJESTER versions with hydraulic pistons and servo-electric conveying screws.

Effective LSR processingAdditional sealing of the cylinder module ensures the necessary cleanliness during LSR processing. In addition to an open nozzle, a number of needle shut-off nozzles featuring a standardised hydraulic drive are available. A simple cold-runner nozzle also enables direct injection and consequently sprueless part production, without requiring a mould-specific cold runner system.

processes “solid” blocks.

Page 7: Application Expertise 523046 en GB

05/2014 · www.arburg.com 7

Adapted plasticisingSpecial technology is required to ensure cor-rect feed of the LSR or HTV material, as well as precise dosage and injection. For con-stant thermal conditions, the cylinder mod-ule and nozzle feature multi-zone liquid temperature control. Premature cross-link-ing of the material is thereby effectively pre-vented. The zero-compression screw with a special non-return valve is adapted to the processing requirements at hand.

Reliable evacuationAn important technique for smooth silicone processing is evacuation of the mould prior to injection. With the SELOGICA control system, evacuation can be programmed with great flexibility thanks to dedicated symbols, whereby integration of all com-mon vacuum concepts is possible. Moreo-ver, SELOGICA also utilises signals from vac-uum devices for process and quality control.

System solutions for LSR and HTVARBURG also offers modular system solu-tions for silicone processing. This ensures the implementation of individually tailored concepts, which are efficient throughout. In some cases, an ALLROUNDER with process-specific equipment might be sufficient. In others, a complex automation cell with quality assurance and/or packaging stations may be the perfect solution.

Suited to specific material: thermoset processing

Further information: Thermoset injection moulding brochure

Special materials require special machine technology. The same applies to thermoset processing. Here we offer you an efficient combination of our proven hydraulic ALLROUNDER machines and a practical thermoset package. The addition of the universal high performance of our SELOGICA con-trol system and our extensive experi-ence in application technology enables us to offer you just what you expect from us: perfect technology for smooth production from the start.

Special cylinder modulesARBURG has introduced adapted injection units for granular thermosets and moist polyesters (BMC) into its modular range of technologies in order to fully meet the re-quirements for thermoset processing. A high level of production quality is achieved through liquid temperature con-trol with up to four zones and separate temperature control for the feed. Bimetallic cylinders ensure a correspondingly long ser-

vice life, while special screw geometries ensure optimum preparation of the mate-rial. Particular attention has been paid to minimising return flows during injection and holding pressure. The clearance be-tween the screw and nozzle is adjustable to prevent excess material here. During BMC processing, temperature-controlled cold-runner radius nozzles ensure short sprues.

Special: compression-free screws with adapted

channel depth.

Gentle BMC feedThe INJESTER tamping devices have been de-veloped for automatic feeding of dry materi-als and materials with a high filler content. They contribute towards optimum pre-com-

pression, thus minimising air and gas inclusions. This keeps the articles free from voids and their surfaces glossy. Here, ARBURG offers several

INJESTER versions with

hydraulic pistons as well as one or two servo-electric conveying screws. All of these are fully integrated into the SELOGICA control system. The conveying pressure is program-mable and the material reservoir can also be filled without difficulty during production. In the case of the INJESTERs with screws, the conveying pressure is also regulated.

Reliable ventingThe venting of cavities is crucial during thermoset processing. It provides an effec-tive means of allowing air and cross-linking gases to escape. As a result, the surface is not scorched and complete mould filling for void-free components is guaranteed. Both single and multiple venting operations can be programmed via the SELOGICA con-trol system, even during the holding pres-sure phase.

Cost-efficient: powder injection moulding

Further information: Powder injection moulding brochure

With the injection moulding of pow-dered materials (PIM) you have access to a technology that offers new design options for highly complex components made from metal (MIM) or ceramics (CIM). The process technology does not differ significantly from the process-ing of filled plastics. This especially applies to consistently high quality during volume production. Faults in the moulded part such as cracks, for exam-ple, can no longer be remedied during subsequent debinding and sintering. We consequently place great value on reproducible, flawless injection mould-ing production. Only then can you as a PIM producer be on the safe side and smooth-running production be ensured.

Reproducible operationReproducible mould filling and particularly high moulded part quality are achieved by means of the unique position regulation of the screws. This minimises reject parts. With ARBURG, the non-return valve can be configured according to the relevant particle size of the powder, ensuring a high degree of process stability, even in the case of coarse powders. The geometry of the PIM screws is always designed for the

necessary low compression. Overheating and decomposition of the feedstock is thus reliably prevented.Sprues are kept short through extension of the PIM nozzle length. The expensive feed-stock is optimally utilised and the moulded parts are always perfectly compressed. Ow-ing to the abrasive properties of the pow-der/binder melt, the injection unit is de-signed to be extremely wear resistant.

Cost saving: short sprues thanks to extended

nozzle length.

Wide variety of optionsIn principle, all ALLROUNDERs are suitable for powder processing. The machines can be individually adapted by means of • different hydraulic and electric

expansion stages• various arrangement options for the

injection units, e.g. for multi-component injection moulding

• task-specific equipment packages – e.g. for gas injection moulding technology or in-mould lamination of green sheets.

Complete solutions precisely adapted to the applications are created by means of inte-grated robotic systems, e.g. for gentle han-dling of the fragile moulded parts, the so-called “green compacts”.

In-house PIM laboratoryAt ARBURG’s unique PIM laboratory, all the important process steps from feedstock mixing and testing, preparation and injec-tion moulding through to debinding and sintering of the moulded parts can be car-ried out under practical conditions. Further-more, detailed consultation is available from our experienced specialists – e.g. on suita-ble powder/binder mixtures.

Practice-oriented: equipment packages for clean

room concepts.

Multi-faceted: clean room technology

Low-emission technologyThe high-grade standard equipment of the ALLROUNDER effectively combats contami-nation and emissions. The machines come with an abrasion and scratch-resistant pow-der-coating as standard. Liquid-cooled drives and control cabinets prevent air tur-bulence and heat dissipation. A wide range of individual features are also available for optimum clean room production.

These include, for example:• stainless steel sorting unit for the reliable

separation of good and reject parts• mobile clean air module for fast, conveni-

ent setup• stainless steel clamping unit and nickel-

plated mounting platens with covered bores for the best cleaning conditions in compliance with GMP A and ISO 5

Further information: Clean room technology brochure

Does your medical clean room appli-cation require you to meet all the necessary standards and guidelines? Do your own quality standards neces-sitate a technically clean production environment? In both cases, we are the right partner for you. In order to exclude sources of contamination and to establish a sufficiently clean produc-tion environment, our ALLROUNDER injection moulding machines can be adapted individually by means of high-ly flexible expansion options. Perfectly moulded parts from the clean room - we make it happen!

Page 13: Application Expertise 523046 en GB

05/2014 · www.arburg.com 13

Ionised clean airClean air modules with ionisation ensure clean production conditions. Electrostatic charging is prevented and the number of particles on the moulded parts is reduced significantly. The permanent air flow leads to a high level of air circulation in the production area, preventing the ingress of particles.

Clean room conceptsThe range includes machines or production cells docked onto the clean room, ALLROUNDERs that operate completely in the clean room, as well as customised clean room cells as turnkey solutions. As a main contractor, ARBURG cooperates closely with the leading manufacturers of automation solutions and clean room technology here.

Qualification and validationComprehensive qualification documenta-tion is available for all ALLROUNDERs as standard in order to meet the documenta-tion requirements of ISO 13485 and GMP. The test log may also be included as evi-dence of machine capability. Regular quali-fied re-validation is also possible with the ARBURG inspection contract.

Efficient: micro-injection moulding

Homogenous material preparationARBURG’s developments are aimed at maxi-mum efficiency: the existing hydraulic and electric standard machine technology is combined with optimised injection units, which makes the technology highly cost- effective. All the injection units operate according to the screw/piston principle, all screw geometries are adapted to optimum

material preparation with minimal dwell times. The screw and the cylinder can be designed to be highly wear-resistant in or-der to be able to process the abrasive mate-rials often used in micro-injection moulding.

Further information: Micro injection moulding brochure

The production of micro-components weighing less than one gram now rep-resents the “state of the art” thanks to our modular ALLROUNDERs – without the need for expensive and complicat-ed special machines. Your production, just like our ALLROUNDER machines, remains open for a wide range of other applications.Our range extends from screws with a diameter of 12 or 15 mm through a spe-cial micro-injection module with 8-mm injection screw for extremely small shot weights, through to your individual system solution for micro-components. Homogeneous material preparation based on the principle of first-in, first-out as well as high reproducibility are a matter of course at ARBURG.

Clever: modular design ensures a wide range of

applications for the machines.

Page 15: Application Expertise 523046 en GB

05/2014 · www.arburg.com 15

Special micro-injection moduleThe pioneering special micro-injection mod-ule combines an 8-mm screw for injection with a second screw for melting the mate-rial. The perfect interaction of the two screws continuously feeds the melt from the material inlet to the tip of the injection screw in a pressure-controlled manner. This ensures that the first-in, first-out prin-

ciple is fully observed. A homogeneous, newly dosed melt is always available for every shot. Furthermore, minimal shot weights can be achieved with great preci-sion and with the longer required travel dis-tances.

Optimum process controlThe SELOGICA has innovative control sys-tems that permit precise position, speed, temperature and pressure control. Special dosage control ensures a homogeneous melt feed for the micro-injection module, while the position control ensures precise screw movements. Finally, adaptive temperature control achieves high temperature stability.

Modular solution:

High performance: packaging technology

Servo-electric toggle systemThe servo-electric toggle-type clamping units of the hybrid HIDRIVE-P and electric ALLDRIVE-P machines save a great deal of time and energy in comparison with the hy-draulic clamping units, also making them more cost-efficient. The cycle times can be reduced thanks to extremely fast mould movements. Features such as energy recov-ery during braking ensure that the energy applied is used more efficiently.

High plasticising capacitySo-called barrier screws, in which the com-pression zone has been replaced with a bar-rier zone, ensure homogeneous melt prepa-ration. The servo-electric direct drive permits dosage across cycles, precise dosage volumes and energy-efficient operation. High-perfor-mance drives with high screw circumferential speeds permit minimal dosage times.

Further information: Packaging technology brochure

The requirements are complex: maxi-mum productivity allied to high energy efficiency are the key in the packaging sector. Here, every hundredth of a sec-ond and every kilowatt-hour represent hard cash for you. That’s why we have consistently fur-ther developed ALLROUNDER injection moulding technology in the direction of an energy-efficient complete solu-tion. With the special “Packaging” (P) version, we guarantee you short cycle times and a high level of process relia-bility: around the clock, 365 days a year. In short: maximum productivity with low energy requirements, throughout the entire volume production. From closures weighing only one gram, to large-capacity containers, you can rely on our support as a partner perfectly positioned in the global market.

Complete solutions for high performance:

the entire injection moulding technology is

adapted to short cycles and high process reliabil-

ity in accordance with the application at hand.

Dynamic injectionHighly dynamic filling during injection moulding is decisive for thin-walled items. This is the only way to achieve the shortest injection times on a reproducible basis. As well as high acceleration, active braking is also important. This is assured by the unsurpassed, position-regulated screw from ARBURG.

Synchronous ejectionThe combination of servo-electric toggle-type clamping unit and servo-electric ejector is extremely powerful and results in short opening and closing times thanks to the precise, reproducible dropping of moulded parts. The hydraulic booster function means that even shrunk-on closures can be de-moulded with ease.

System solutions for packagingAs a system service provider, ARBURG also handles the project planning of complete systems, commissioning at the customer’s premises, CE labelling, as well as training and support. This is made possible through close cooperation with leading manufactur-ers of moulds, automation solutions and peripherals. Technical details are always adapted in a customised manner, e.g. cool-ing water distributors with feed lines meas-uring up to two inches.

Other processes: widely diversified range

In order to be able to produce cost-effectively in the long term as a trend-setter, your manufacturing processes must be constantly reviewed and fur-ther developed. New processes and plastics, as well as the use of innova-tive machine and system technologies also play a significant role. Here, we offer you comprehensive support in applications and process technology, support that is particularly critical in the initial stages of new processes in your company. Thanks to our close coopera-tion with the leading manufacturers of materials, moulds and peripherals, we implement even complex produc-tion processes in a very short time. Our modular ALLROUNDERs coupled with the universal SELOGICA control system provide the ideal platform.

1 Overmoulding of inserts

Whether inserts are to be overmoulded with thermoplastics, thermosets or liquid sili-cone, the combination of plastics with met-als to produce hybrid parts can be reliably implemented in a customised manner using ARBURG’s modular vertical and rotary table machines. A good example here are turnkey reel-to-reel systems for automated inline production. These permit the overmoulding of leadframes in short cycles in order to cre-ate top-quality parts.

2 Long-fibre direct injection

mouldingIn long-fibre direct injection moulding, fibres with a length of up to 50 mm are fed directly into the liquid melt via a side feeder on the injection unit. The fibre length, fibre content and material combi-nation can also be individually adjusted. This results in components with excellent mechanical properties.

3 Elastomer injection moulding

The injection units of the ALLROUNDERs are additionally equipped with a band feed for the injection moulding of elastomers, i.e. elastic, malleable plastics. Special conveying screws process the base materials in contin-uous lengths.

4 Hotmelt processing

Hotmelt is an adhesive used to overmould electronic components or connectors with a perfect seal, reliably protecting them from splash water. Precision adapted cylinder modules ensure high processing quality.

5 Wood polymer injection

mouldingWood plastic composites (WPC) materials can be processed on ALLROUNDER injection moulding machines without difficulty. The screw and non-return valve are adapted in accordance with the filler content of the material.

Side feeder: cuts endless fibre strands and adds

them to the melt.

6 Exjection® process

In the Exjection® process, the mould per-forms a horizontal transfer movement dur-ing the injection process. This enables the production of structural components with functional geometries up to several meters in length, for example. The vertical ALLROUNDER V machines with free-space system are ideally suited to this purpose.

7 Compression injection moulding

Compression injection moulding is charac-terised by a change in cavity volume during the ongoing injection and/or holding pres-sure phase. This process enables the pro-duction of low-stress, thick-walled compo-nents without sink marks. The complex pro-cess sequence, however, requires in-depth process expertise and machine technology with high repeat accuracy. With the SELOGICA control system, compression in-jection moulding becomes freely and uni-versally programmable – without the use of special programs.

8 MuCell® microfoam technology

By introducing dosed amounts of gas in the supercritical state (SCF), particularly light and yet strong micro-foamed parts can be produced. As a partner of Trexel, ARBURG offers turnkey MuCell® production systems for physical foaming, including the license and the SCF dosing device.

9 In-mould decoration (IMD)

The IMD process allows plastic parts with high-quality surface decorations to be pro-duced. An image printed on a flat polyester film is transferred to the moulded part dur-ing injection moulding. Like the robotic sys-tems, the pay-off and take-up device for continuous decorative films are supplied from a single source, by ARBURG.

10 In-mould labelling (IML)

The IML process is suitable for high-speed packaging, as well as technical applica-tions, in order to e.g. label thin-walled components directly in the mould. For this purpose, prefabricated films are inserted in the mould by robotic systems or IML sys-tems configured for extremely short cycles. As a main contractor, ARBURG provides all the technology.

11 Fluid injection moulding technol-

ogy (FIT)Targeted hollow spaces can be produced in the part during the injection moulding pro-cess through the introduction of gas (GIT) or water (WIT) into the cavities. The SELOGICA control system enables switching from ma-terial injection to gas or water injection as a function of time, distance or pressure. This means that all the FIT processes can be reli-ably implemented.
