Liquid Silicone Metering Injection Molding Machine

A liquid silicone metering injection molding machine is a specialized machine used for the production of silicone products through the injection molding process. It is designed to accurately measure and control the amount of liquid silicone material that is injected into the mold cavity.

The main components of a liquid silicone metering injection molding machine include a silicone dosing system, an injection unit, a heating system, a clamping unit, and a control system.

The silicone dosing system is responsible for accurately measuring and mixing the liquid silicone material. It typically consists of a silicone storage tank, a metering pump, and a heating system to maintain the material at the desired temperature.

The injection unit is responsible for injecting the liquid silicone material into the mold cavity. It consists of a screw or plunger mechanism that accurately controls the flow and pressure of the material during the injection process.

The heating system is used to maintain the mold at the correct temperature for curing the liquid silicone into a solid form. It ensures that the silicone material is evenly heated and properly cured, resulting in high-quality finished products.

The clamping unit is responsible for holding the mold in place during the injection and curing process. It applies sufficient clamping force to ensure that the mold remains tightly closed and prevents any leakage of the liquid silicone material.

The control system is used to monitor and control various parameters of the injection molding process, such as the temperature, pressure, and timing. It allows the operator to set and adjust these parameters based on the specific requirements of the silicone product being manufactured.
