Micro Moulding

Technology

MULTI BOX uses BabyPlast moulds for high-precision micro moulding. The moulding department has 3 moulds of 7 tons of this type.
In addition to these moulds, accessories to support the production process, such as dehumidifiers, thermoregulators, and mould conditioning control units are installed.
This allows the use of all types of resin, including technopolymer.

Advantages

a) QUALITY OF SEMI-PROCESSED GOODS
Small semi-processed goods, treated with traditional moulding machinery, rarely comply to the expected quality standards. The excessive stationing of material in the plasticizing unit, owing to the deterioration of polymers, indeed alters technical characteristics, in particular whne technopolymers are processed.
Conversely, the small size of the plastic coating unit and the particular Baby Plast's sphere-based system, allow:
•    plastification without stress
•    short stationing of the polymer inside the injection system 
•    accuracy in the calibration of the process parameters 
This allows the production of high-quality items also weighing less than one gram.

 

b) LIMITED INVESTMENT FOR THE CONSTRUCTION OF THE MOULD 
The layout of the mould for BabyPlast is made up only with matrix molds; this guarantees a reduction in production costs in addition to a limited size of the moulds.
Production time of the mould itself also benefits from this layout.

c) LOW RATIO OF SPRUE PER ITEM
The injection of material is done directly in the matrice; this entails a drastic reduction in the incidence of the sprue relative to the net weight of the item.
