Math for Molders – Calculating Plastic Pressure (excerpt)
This excerpt discusses plastic pressure calculations and descibes how actual plastic pressure can be determined as a function of hydraulic pressure and the molding machine’s intensification ratio. This two-part training program was created for all personnel within the injection molding industry who would like to expand or fine tune their math skills. These courses will greatly benefit any participant of RJGs classroom-based, Master Molder SM Certification Series either as a primer or as follow-up training. A.

A FANUC Robotics six axis M-710iB/70T top-loader robot pulls a molded plastic part from a large plastic injection molding cell. The M-710iB/70T then carries the part to a table and performs an automated tool change. The robot then trims and removes any plastic gating from the part with a cutting tool. After all gating has been removed, the robot performs another tool change and relocates the part to an out feed conveyor to complete the cycle. This automated process then starts over with a new molded plastic part. This six axis M-710iB/70T top-loader robot saves valuable floor space with its vertical mount above the machine, allowing easy access to the molded parts. The flexibility of this six axis robot allows it to perform multiple automated tasks in a wide range of work spaces.
