A.2/ WHAT IS A BABYPLAST 6/10P AND WHAT CAN IT DO?
The BABYPLAST 6/10P injection moulding machine is the result of thirty years experience working in specificfields of plastic injection moulding, mould design and construction.Research and development, on the machine, began more than ten years ago, in response to an important areaof demand:
-SMALL SERIES PRODUCTION.-PROTOTYPE DEVELOPMENT.-LOW COST OF MOULDS..-LABORATORY TESTS.-TECHNICAL TRAINING.
BABYPLAST 6/10P is the ideal solution for producing small plastic-moulded parts, without using multiple cavitymoulds. This is particularly useful when developing prototypes or producing small series of parts.Owing to the low cost of the moulds used in our machines, in-depth experiments can be carried out before thefinal mould for large series production is built.As a result, both small and medium series can be produced easily, and COMPLETELY AUTONOMOUSLY.
Thank you for the trust you have placed in Babyplast. We are confident that your BABYPLAST 6/10P machine,will help fulfil your application expectations.When handling and processing any injection moulding materials, customers must follow the material manufacturer'sinstructions with great care.

C.1.3/ HYDRAULIC SYSTEM SAFETY DEVICE
When the transparent gate is opened, the power supply to the valves is cut and a safety release valve isactivated which diverts all the hydraulic fluid in the system to the oil tank, thus stopping all the machinesmovements. The safety valve (page F-0140 - pos. 21) is fitted with a switch which to monitor and ensure thatit functions correctly.If the transparent guard is closed and the hydraulic safety device does not return to its working position, alarm002 GATE OPEN is activated.
If the machine has not been used for a long period or after transport, the plunger on the hydraulic safetydevice, situated behind the aluminium rail near the transparent gate (see drawing above), may become stuck.To free the plunger, open the gate, insert a small screwdriver into the inspection hole and push the plunger inand out.

C.7/ STARTING THE MACHINE
The machine is now ready to be started. Check that it has been filled with oil to the correct level, andthat it is connected to the mains correctly.After switching on at the main switch, the SAFETY GUARD CHECKmust be carried out In order to continue. Before being able to start the motor, the safety guards must beopened and closed. If a fault is detected with any of the guard switches, it will not be possible to start themachine. Carry out the following procedures before starting the injection process:
FIRST:Install the mould and set the mould closed position, following the instructions in section
D1.6/ SETTING THE MOULD CLOSED POSITION.
SECOND:Set the plastification temperature according to the specifications indicated by the manufacturer of the
material to be injected. Set the injection chamber temperature to approximately 5/10 °C below theplastification temperature parag. D.1.7a TEMPERATURE SETTINGS (page D0090)WARNING: Plastic material, which was used for tests during the manufacturing process, will be found in theINJECTION UNIT. MAKE SURE that this material is compatible with the temperatures at which the machineis to be programmed.If the user is not experienced in the transformation of thermoplastic materials, it is advisable to begin with amaterial with a wide temperature range, such as POLYPROPYLENE, POLYSTYRENE, POLYETHYLENEABS,etc.so as to obtain best results right from the start.
THIRD:Set the shot size based on the volume of the part, the cooling time between 2 and 4 seconds, the 1st
injection pressure at approx. 50/60 bar and a time for the 1st injection pressure depending on the volume ofthe part to produce and the density of the material used (start with 1.5 - 3 seconds for example).Decompression should be set between 1 and 2 mm Parag. D.1.7b4 INJECTION SETTINGS (page D-0140)
FOURTH: Set sprue break time, if required, from 0.1 to 0.2 secs. see INJECTION CARRIAGE TIME parag. D1.7b1(page D-0110). Set the opening stroke depending on the size of the part, see parag. D1.7b5 (page D-0150) andfinally, set the ejection time from 0.2 to 0.7 secs. with 2 or 3 ejector strokes. parag. D.1.7b3 (page D-0130).
FIFTHClose the material chute on the hopper and load the hopper with material as required. When the various,previously set, temperatures have been reached, open the material chute on the hopper and purge themachine according to section D.2.3 PURGE page D-0240).The machine is now ready to produce parts.
SIXTHPut the machine in semi-automatic mode and make sure that the transparent gate and guards are
closed. Press the START key. The machine will proceed to complete one cycle. The nozzle may cool slightly,during the first shots, as it comes into contact with the cold mould. If so, for the first shots only, increase thenozzle temperature by approximately 5 or 10%.If good results have been achieved, repeat this process several times in SEMI-AUTOMATIC mode, adjustingthe different machine parameters such as times, temperatures, pressures and material load etc.When in AUTOMATIC mode, make sure that, at the end of the injection cycle, the injection piston reaches apoint less than 3 mm (cushion) within 8 cycles, otherwise the machine will go into alarm. To modify settingssee parag. D.4c ADVANCED SETTINGS (page D-0380)
The parameters quoted in this section are only a guide line, because the various parameters and settingsalways depend on the material used, the mould construction and the volume of the part etc.
WARNING: Some plastic materials maybe inflammable and/or explosive.

If the operating temperatureincreases or decreases by a value greater thanthis set temperature, (i.e. goes out of the toleranceband) the machine goes into alarm Tol. band maxerror. Manual operation of the injection piston andplastification will not be possible nor will it bepossible to enter an automatic cycle until theoperating temperatures are within this toleranceband.
The stand-by temperature always depends onthe temperatures set in each of the mouldsetting programmes and when active, theheater zones will be seen in yellow. The stand-by temp. activates in the following cases:1.When the heaters are switched on inautomatic.2.When the machine is in alarm for a greaterlength of time than the time out alarm.3.When the heaters are switched on manually.
If the machine is in alarm for a time greaterthan that set fo “time out alarm”, the heaterswill go into the stand-by mode. After doublethe length of time, the heaters and motor willbe switched off.

F/ MAINTENANCE
All the materials used in the construction of BABYPLAST 6/10P have been studied so thatthey require minimum maintenance and are easy to replace.
OIL:The oil and filters must be kept clean and must be replaced within the recommended
periods so that the hydraulic equipment does not wear prematurely.RECOMMENDED PERIODS FOR OIL CHANGE: = 2000 to 5000 HOURS ( acc. to oil type)
FILTER: = 1500 HOURS
REFRIGERATION UNIT:If treated water is used, so as to avoid calcium deposits from forming, no maintenance isrequired. If treated water is not used, the system will have to be cleaned depending on calcium
level in the water.
MOVEABLE PARTS:All the moveable parts, that are subject to friction, are lined with TEFLON, including themobile platen with the STD bushings, and therefore, apart from the normal cleaning, nomaintenance is required. (However, the wear on the bushings ought to be checked
regularly).
GASKETS:All the gaskets are fitted with bronze reinforced PTFE friction strips, and O-ringseal. Check the that the surfaces correspond before joining.
ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT.Inspect the ventilator in the electrnics compartment, particularly in hot weather, keep theunit dry and clean, and make sure the connections are well-maintained. Do not use used
parts when replacing elements, especially where FUSES AND TRIACS are concerned. Electrical maintenance should be carried out by qualified personel only.
HEATING EQUIPMENT:Seeing as all the heating elements are standard and the thermocouples are independent,they are easy to maintain. If other thermocouples are used,they should be a ground
isolated "J"-type to avoid disturbances from electrical noise.
NOZZLE:
The Nozzle has an armoured heating element which is fixed in place by a cup shaped protecive cover. Keep this assembly as clean as possible and check the condition of wiring regularly for damage etc.
INJECTION CHAMBER has two 8 x 80 diameter bulb type 200 W heating elements which need to
be checked regularly. Keep this assembly as clean as possible and check the condition of wiring regularly for damage etc.
PLASTIFICATION CHAMBER The plastification chamber is heated by a - 230V 1000W 37mm diam. heater band
which guarantees an optimal and uniform heat distribution which is essential for technical polymers. Keep this assembly as clean as possible and check the condition of wiring regularly for damage etc.
