An injection molding machine includes a plasticating unit for plasticating a thermoplastic resin, and an injecting unit connected to the plasticating unit through a connecting passage to inject the plasticated resin into a mold. In the connecting passage, provided is a buffering unit for reserving the resin in an amount at least equal to the quantity of the resin injected per one shot. The plasticated resin is temporarily reserved in the buffering unit, and then, the reserved resin is fed to the injecting unit when the measuring is carried out, whereby the plasticating unit can be driven continuously simultaneously with the operation of the injecting unit and the mold. The molding cycle can shortened with the plastication efficiency being enhanced.

Thermoplastic resin injection molding machine

To provide a resin molding machine that can reduce cost by eliminating the need for a residual-material remover, and can reduce cycle time and the amount of residual material, the resin molding machine includes a stationary cavity plate that has a gate communicating with a cavity, a sprue bushing in which a sprue is formed for feeding a molding material through the gate into the cavity, a runner plate disposed between the stationary cavity plateand the sprue bushing, a cylinder unit (runner-plate driving mechanism) for rectilinearly reciprocating the runner plate between ejecting positions and via a molding position, the ejecting positions being separated from the molding position A and provided for ejecting the residual material, and an ejecting channel (residual-material ejecting mechanism) for ejecting the residual material at the ejecting positions.

Resin molding machine

A method of injection-moulding includes separating an injection nozzle from a mould during every moulding cycle. An apparatus for carrying out the method is also disclosed.

Injection moulding machine and moulding method

An injection molding machine includes a plasticating unit for plasticating a thermoplastic resin, and an injecting unit connected to the plasticating unit through a connecting passage to inject the plasticated resin into a mold. The injecting unit A includes a rotary pump having a suction port connected to the plasticating unit through the connecting passage and a discharge port connected to the mold. The plasticated resin is intermittently injected into the cavity of the mold through the injection port by means of the rotary pump. In the connecting passage, an accumulator is provided which reserves the resin plasticated in the plasticating unit in an amount equal to or more than the shot capacity, and feeds the resin to the rotary pump.
