Increase Your Machine Uptime. . .And Profit

摘要

How much is all this worth? Every second saved adds directly ro your bottomline profit. For example, if we can save 3 sec on a 60-sec cycle time with a dual-head operation, and the mold runs for 7000 hr/ yr, the benefit is 30,000 more parts/yr. How do we accomplish this? Make sure there is no more than 1 sec between starting drop of parison and the extruder reaching shot size. It might be possible to bring the pre-close position closer to the moldclose position. (This alone could save 1 sec.)
