Causes

Possible causes

Suggested solution

Injection molding machine

In cylinder of injection plastic too heated.

 

Reduced melt temperature.

Temperature controller is not functioning properly.

Check injection cylinder controlled by temperature controller is in the correct area.

More positive temperature controller and check again whether there is a contact adhesive.

Using an incorrect thermocouple types.

Check whether the types of thermocouples used or available on temperature controller, such as FeCon consistent. 

Check whether all electric running with satisfaction.


Plastic injection cylinders in the residence time is too long.

Injection weight, if it is less than the injection pressure of injection molding machine 25%, the mold will transfer to the smaller plastic injection molding machine. 

If there are no smaller injection molding machine can be used for the injection cylinder temperature dropped below the minimum value, which will meet the quality requirements of injection molded parts.

At the time of cessation of the production of plastic stuck in cylinder of injection.

When you stop the production, to clean up the shot cylinder, screw the most forward position.

Somewhere in the plastic injection tank "stranded" and degradation.

Check shot cylinder, removal of land of any residual stains.

Mold Mold shot is too small.

The mold is moved to the smaller of the injection molding machine.

Plastic

Water content in the plastic is too high.

Use the correct baking programs.
