Rubber hot forming press
In the process of injection molding, whether the temperature setting is accurate is the key to the appearance and performance of the product. Below are some suggestions for temperature settings when performing injection molding for TPR processing.The temperature in the feed area should be set fairly low to avoid clogging of the feed port and allow entrapped air to escape. In order to improve the mixing state when using color masterbatch, the temperature of the transition zone should be set above the melting point of the color masterbatch. The temperature in the area closest to the injection nozzle should be set close to the desired melt temperature.
Therefore, after testing, usually the temperature setting range of tpr products in each area is: the barrel is 160 degrees Celsius to 210 degrees Celsius, and the nozzle is 180 degrees Celsius to 230 degrees Celsius.
The mold temperature should be set higher than the condensation temperature of the injection area, which will avoid the contamination of the mold by moisture and the appearance of streaks on the surface of the product. Higher mold temperature usually results in longer cycle times, but it can improve the appearance of welding lines and products, so the mold temperature range should be designed to be between 30 and 40.
