INPUT PROCESS OUTPUT

Resin - Polyethylene terephthalate PET(plastic  Rotational Mold/Injection Molding – is a Monobloc Chair

polymer powder) manufacturing process for producing parts by Monobloc Table
injecting material (Resin) into a mold.Small pellets Lego blocks
CHAIR MOULD (Resin) are fed into the injection unit (from solid Disposable Spoon and Fork
state to a liquid form). After reaching the right
CLAMPING temp.Liquid form is forced into the chair mold.
 Clamping fastening device to hold or secure
INJECTION MACHINE objects tightly together to prevent movement or
separation through the application of inward
WATER CHILLER MACHINE pressure.
 Cooling Process – the standard cooling process is
COOLING TOWER MACHINE passing a coolant (water) which absorbs heat
from the molds it also solidify the plastic at the
DRYER most efficient rate.

Injection Molding Machine

3 Parts

Injection Unit

 Plastic Pellets in the Hopper feed into the barrel of the Injection Unit
 Inside the Barrel a screw transports/heats the pellets forward
 The Heater bands wrapped around the barrel which melts the pellets
 The screw injects the molten plastic into the empty part of the mold called the “Cavity Image”

Mold

 Initially the cavity image is filled with air as the molten plastic is injected it forces air out of the mold which escapes through vents
 Vents are channels ground into the landing surface of the molds
 To Speed the plastic solidification , coolant floats through channel inside the mold
 The Plastic solidifies under a minute. When the plastics cools, it shrinks and stuck tightly on the core half of the mold
 The Mold opens and the part is ejected thru a built in ejector pins that pushes the part off the mold
 Then the molding closes and the process repeats
