Benefits from the process
Using gas injection technology improves the quality of the parts produced. A more efficient production process can increase productivity and thus profitability significantly.
The use of gas injection technology offers the following benefits, dependent upon the process:
New ways of manufacturing the most wide and varied, technically challenging and complex plastic parts:
- Exceptional design freedom and possibilities
- High resistance to twisting
- Dies are easier to make
- Lower closing forces thanks to reduced pressure inside the die for short shot injection technology
Numerous benefits with the formation of hollow cavities:
- Optimum surfaces / avoidance of sink marks
- Reduction in cycle time for volume parts
- Less material is needed
Maximum parts quality thanks to best possible use of nitrogen pressure:
- Higher rigidity
- Less wear
- Optimum mould formation (avoidance of sink marks)
Tools are more straightforward due to the omission of sliders
