Example for part 2453

Projected Area

Clamping force = Total projected area X Inj. Peak pressure

𝐹 = 𝐴 𝑥P
𝐹 = 2𝑥3. 104 10−6 𝑚2 𝑥 40. 106 𝑁𝑚−2
𝐹 = 240 . 104 N
𝐹 = 240 . 103 Kg
𝐹 = 240 Ton ≈ 250 Ton

Setting clamping force in the machine
According to information from Haitian technicians, the MA6000 machine
can reach clamping force 600 Ton when maximum pressure is reached.
The maximum pressure from machine is 140 bar (2030 Psi)
So to get clamping force 250 Ton, we set the pressure when clamping
at 850 Psi

II.b. Back Pressure

Back Pressure is the pressure that works on the injection cylinder

To hold back motion from the screw during charging process.

Back pressure serves to maintain the density of material in the metering

zone area (the material is ready to inject).
The bigger the back pressure, the better the material density.
But if the back pressure is too large, it will cause charging time longer than
the time it should.
In this case more material will slip inside the barrel.

III.c. Inject Pressure

Injection Pressure is basically the pressure works in the injection cylinder

to produce a thrust force, so that the injection speed we set can be achieved.

Theoretically the inject pressure is obtained by taking into account the

pressure drop in the nozzle, runner, gate, + cavity pressure

16
example pressure drop calculation

suppose known family mold 2 cavity with cross section runner.

- weight part 1 = 15gr, part weight 2 = 40gr
- density= 1 gr/cm3
- injection time = 5 seconds
- sprue diameter = 5 mm, sprue length = 30 mm
- channel length 1 = 80 mm, channel diameter 1 = 5 mm
- channel length 2 = 30 mm
Determine the channel diameter 2 and the pressure before the sprue !

VI. Barrel (zone) Temperature
The basic for determining the temperature of a barrel (zone) is the material type and volume of material required at
shot metering area (front zone).

Semi-crystaline material requires more energy to reach its melting point, than amorphus material
It's easier to reach the melting point. In this case semi-crystaline material will take longer time
To reach the melting point.

Material in the shot metering area and behind (material for charging)
Must be at the melting point condition.

To minimize material degradation due to prolonged melting point position,

Temperature behind the charging area can be lowered
10-20 ° C under melting temperature.

CT part 2453 adalah 47 detik, sehingga dalam 1 hari (24 jam) produksi ada ± 1800 siklus injeksi.
Sehingga energi yang dihemat dalam 1 hari = 0,0012 x 1800 = 2,16 kWh

Misal harga listrik per 1 kWh adalah Rp 10.000 (asumsi), maka cost yang dapat dihemat dalam 1 hari =
2,16 x Rp 10.000 = Rp 21.600,00 5
Problem Sharing :
1. Bubbles
There are 3 possibility why the bubbles can happen in the part :
- Material drying process is not good
If the drying process is not properly, it will cause the water concentration in the material is still high. The water will be
Vapour when the material is melted in the barrel. So, make sure the drying process run properly according to the standard.
- Cavitation in the barrel (when charging process) *cavitation video
When the charging RPM speed is too high & the difference between theoritical chg.time and actual chg.time is too big,
It will may be cause the cavitation. That’s why BASF give us refference for peripherall screw speed is < 0,3 m/s.
So, we have to make chg. Parameter with speed is below that limit (depend on screw diameter).
And the difference between theoritical & actual chg.time is not too big.

- Gas trap in the mold during injection process

During the injection process, there is a transfer of air volume inside the cavity that is driven by the flow of plastic material.
If the air that comes out does not fluently through the gasvent, then this will cause bubbles.
So, make sure the gasvent in the mold is enough (minimal 30% of PL perimeter). And make sure the gasvent works normally,
There is no dirt covering the gasvent.
Problem Sharing :
2. Burnmark
Burnmark is also caused by trapped gas.

P . V . T Laws (pressure, volume, temperature)

From shot step above, we can know the burnmak is the final
filling area of material flow from 3 gates. When the material
Flows, it will push the air to final filling. When the air is compressed,
The temperature will increase and cause burnmark. If the volume smaller (V2), then the presseure (P2)
And temperature (T2) will increase
Solution : improve setting parameter, make the injection speed
Slower when the position already near with final filling position.
To give chance the air flows out through gasvent. or
Add more gasvent by make new insert
Problem Sharing : Improve sinkmark
We can improve sinkmark condition by add the step in holding parameter.
In this case, we make the holding from 1 step become 2 step.
At 2nd step, we add the holding time 1 s. From injection graph, we can see.
Actually, the material flow is stopped after the holding run for 0,3 s.
We can consider it as cooling time start (when 2nd holding run,
Cooling process also run). So, we can reduce cooling time parameter -1 s
Before After To keep the cycle time is still the same.

Problem Sharing : Gate burn in 2468
Gate burn, Conclusion : if the flow speed is too high, it will cause
greater friction. As a result of the friction, the temperature
in mold 2468
at the friction area will increase. Regardless of the quality
of gate material is good or not, we already have a reference
that if the flow speed reach 95000 mm/s, it will cause burn in gate.
Screw speed : 45 mm/s So, we have to decrease injection speed. Or change gate design

We usually set the clamping pressure 1000 – 1500 Psi.
So when we set in 1000 Psi, the clamping force is about 140 Ton
 Fy from clamping

In ideal conditions received Fy by insert section

is (the cross-section of the insert is divided all over
Cross-section of the PL) x clamping force.
If at the time of clamping, the insert area touching first
than in other PL areas, the insert area will
receive Fy force as big as clamping force. Fx
Fx
Because there is a slope L
in the contact area,
So there is a reaction
force in the direction of
X axis

The Fx force multiplied by L distance, will give rise to a bending moment.

This bending moment will cause a bending strain in the insert.
If the bending strain that occurs exceeds the bending strain of the material,
Then the insert will break

Known : k = 56,4 N/mm Conclusion : The spring reaction force in mold 0194 is about 15,6 kN.
X = 46,34 mm Another mold (2274) that run in same machine, use 4 yellow spring.
n = 6 springs It’s mean the reaction force is about (4/6) x 15,6 = 10,4kN.
And there’s no problem in mold 2274.
It’s too big force, only to push the EP plate back in the normal position.

Injection process not stable

In MA6000

By : Anggun Huda P.
R&D Dept
Part problem in MA6000:
2482 2453 2484

The part problems in MA6000

Is more than 10.000 ppm
With the same charging parameters, the transfer position (V / P change) that happens is always changing.
In inject parameter (F3), the transfer position (V / P change) is setted at position 10. From the record above
there are several shots Holding position occurs at position up to 13.4 (difference of 3.4 with setting).
All holding position above 10, inject time is definitely 6. Means when the process of inject before until position 10,
the product volume is full. So the screw can not move forward again (to get to position 10). But actually the machine
will keep trying to push the screw to reach point 10, Until the inject time limit is reached (5 seconds).
Then after that V / P change (holding) run for 1 second.
So it can be concluded that the density in the shot metering area is not always stable.
With the same charging parameters, actual charging time is always changing (up and down). The cushion is also up and down.
This constantly changing cushion indicates the density of the material produced in shot metering area is unstable.
The interesting thing is when the cushion is low (meaning the step length is greater), The actual inject time that happens
is even faster. In other words injection speed increases when the cushion happens is lower (material density smaller).
This is very logical, with the same inject pressure, if the load / resistance (when the inject process) is smaller,
then the resulting speed will be bigger.
Which affects the charging process:
1. Speed (Rpm) screw
2. Pressure
3. Backpressure
4. Material suply
5. Screw and barrel condition
6. .....????
*charging graph in MA6000 *charging graph in MA3800

From the graph above, the most striking difference is the purple line (backpressure graph). In the MA3800 machine,
Backpressure tends to be more stable. While in the MA6000 machine, backpressure tends to be unstable (up and down).

Backpressure is the most influential parameter to the density generated in the shot metering area.
So it can be concluded that the problem in the MA6000 machine is
Possible in the part of the system that regulate backpressure
 This is a Flow control valve circuit diagram
in Haitian machine.
The function of flow control valve
is to set the hydraulic oil flow.
One of them is during the charging process,
Flow control valve will inhibit
Outflow of oil from inside
Hydraulic cylinder (backpressure).
So this resistance force will make
density in the shot metering area increases.

Conclusion :
Valve number 10.1, 10.2, 10.3
*hydraulic circuit Haitian machine
Is possible problem.
So it needs to be checked
Production Trial Run 2453 in MA5300
We already try to run production
Part 2453 in MA5300 machine,
For 2 shift production.
And the result is good.
The process is also stable.
After Haitian’s Service
Haitian technicians already check the MA6000 machine. And try to improve setting parameter.

The setting parameter.
But the actual chg.time is still unstable
AFTER CHECKING
THE CHECK VALVE & TORPEDO
Our maintenance team already open the barrel.
There is a lump of material inside the check valve.
This lump of material blocks the flow of material
when charging process run.
So the charging time is unstable.
This lump of material also blocks
the movement of check valve to close when injecting.
So that the back flow occurs and the cushion is unstable
