What is the role of mold monitor in injection molding? Mold occupies a large proportion of the production cost of injection molding, die-casting, and stamping processing enterprises. Its quality is directly related to the quality of the product. The service life of the mold directly affects the cost of the injection molded product. The stability of the mold also guarantees the delivery period of the product. Important factor. Therefore, ensuring the stability of the injection mold and prolonging its life cycle can effectively reduce the processing cost of injection molded products processing enterprises and increase the production capacity of each injection molding machine. Therefore, it is necessary to monitor the mold in the injection molding production process!

Mold protector to prevent plastic mold from being compressed:

The mold protector, also known as the mold monitor and the electronic eye, is a mold protection system that monitors, controls, and detects the operating conditions of various injection molding machines in real time. It can effectively protect valuable molds, can effectively detect whether the product is qualified, and check whether there are residues before closing the mold to prevent the mold from being pinched. Application range of injection mold monitor:

1. Used for mold inspection of molded products

When there is a molded product left in the fixed mold, a cavity will be formed on the movable mold side, which will be detected by the mold protector and alarm.

2. Used for plug-in placement detection

When there are plug-ins that need to be placed during molding, the mold protector will automatically detect whether the number and position of the plug-ins are correct.

3. Used for thimble or insert break detection

The breakage of the ejector pin or the small insert will cause damage to the mold or cause a large batch of defects. The mold protector can see all this, and can immediately prevent the mold from closing, and immediately call the police.

4. Used to detect the presence of the slider

After opening the mold, check whether the slider is in place, and before closing the mold, check whether the slider is in place.

5. Used to detect insufficient filling

When insufficient filling occurs, the mold monitor will change the shape or surface gloss of the product.

6. Used for the detection of burrs

When burrs appear, the product becomes larger.

7. Used for drop detection

After one or several ejections, there are still products that have not fallen off. At this time, it is very dangerous to close the mold, especially for expensive molds. The mold protector can show its skill at this critical moment and issue instructions for prohibiting mold clamping to prevent accidents that damage the mold.

8. Used to reduce unnecessary ejection times

Some injection molding machines have the function of ejecting again, and the mold protector can cooperate with this function of the injection molding machine and the plastic mold monitor to reduce the number of ejections. We can set the number of ejection times to single or two times (it should be set to more times) when there are still products that have not fallen off after ejection, the mold protector will issue an ejection instruction again until it is completely off. Go to the next action.

9. Used in production line or assembly line

It can complete parts identification, sorting or error correction tasks to help you realize automated production.

10. For quality management

The standard model of each product can be archived and stored in the controller. The quality inspector can compare the current product with the model in real time or irregularly, so that defective products can be found accurately and timely.
