Wittmann Battenfeld Presents High-Tech Injection Molding Machines And Peripherals At The Chinaplas

摘要

On a MicroPower 15/10, which has been specially designed for the injection molding of small and micro parts, WittmannBattenfeld showed an opto-electronic application. A barrel holder made of POM will be produced with a mold supplied by Wittner, Austria. This component is a focusing device used mainly in cameras to hold the lenses in place or to focus them. The internal thread of the barrel holder is produced with the help of a threaded core operated directly via the ejector of the injection molding machine. This means that the threaded core is unscrewed directly inside the mold, before it is removed by a WITTMANN W8VS2 robot specially designed for this machine model, then presented to a camera integrated in the production line and the machine's control system for quality inspection, and finally deposited in a collecting box separated according to cavities. The production process is realized under clean-room conditions achieved by means of a Laminar FlowBox inside the machine.
