Résumé : |
Functional integration instead of downstream assembly: moldmaker Foboha presented a sophisticated patented mold technology at K 2022 that could transform the market for disposable beverage containers in the next few years. The company is remaining tight-lipped about its current pilot project. This article describes the underlying Citi technology, which features a cube mold with integrated turning inserts. The new process saves production space, energy and cycle time. |
Note de contenu : |
- Simultaneous processes on four sides of the cube
- Compact hot runner in the tightest of spaces
- High-speed cameras for inline quality assurance
- initiative project for packaging applications
- Fig. 1 : The sprockets of the circular Citi tool elements interlock with each other and provide the vertical rotation. The entire cube then rotates horizontally
- Fig. 2 : 3-component part: first, the green frame is made of PP. This is followed by the blue TPE seal. Finally, the black lever made of POM is injection molded. It is attached to the frame by means of the pin and bush principle but remains movable
- Fig. 3 : When removing the components, the robot flips the black lever on each molded part downward
- Fig. 4 : Rotate and turn in all directions: the vertically rotating tool inserts are a special feature of Citi technology
- Fig. 5 : A look inside the injection molding machine: synchronous mold filling, cooling and parts removal was demonstrated on an Arburg Allrounder Cube 1800 at K |
