Mold temperature control device

Abstract

The invention discloses a mold temperature control device which comprises a mold, a cooling system and heating devices. A shell of the mold is provided with cooling pipelines. A cooling water outlet of the cooling system communicates with water inlets of the cooling pipelines through pipelines. Each heating device comprises a ceramic core bar, a coil and an insulating layer, wherein the coil is wound around the ceramic core bar, the coil is wrapped by the insulating layer, the heating device is inserted in a cavity of the mold. By the adoption of a variable-mold-temperature injection molding method, a dynamic mold temperature control strategy is adopted, in other words, the mold is rapidly heated before glue injection, high-mold-temperature injection is achieved, then the forming period is shortened through fast cooling, and therefore inherent defects of a traditional injection molding technology are overcome while the production efficiency is not reduced.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of mold forming, and in particular relates to a mold temperature control device. Background technique [0002] With the development of home appliances, communications, consumer electronics, automotive interiors, optoelectronics and other industries, consumers have put forward requirements for plastic products in terms of thinner wall thickness, more complex structure, more beautiful surface, and higher strength. For traditional injection molding technology, a constant temperature mold temperature control strategy is adopted. Due to the limitation of the molding cycle, the mold temperature is relatively low (generally less than 80°C). During the molding process, the low mold temperature will lead to the cooling of the polymer melt during the flow of the die. Due to the early cooling, a condensation layer will be formed on the wall of the cavity, which will hinder the molding of the melt and reduce the filling of the me...

Problems solved by technology

During the molding process, the low mold temperature will lead to the cooling of the polymer melt during the flow of the die. Due to the early cooling, a condensation layer will be formed on the wall of the cavity, which will hinder the molding of the melt and reduce the filling of the melt. mold ability and transfer ability

Therefore, traditional injection molding technology is difficult to apply to optical products with high transparency, plastic parts with microstructure on the surface, composite products with high strength, and ultra-long thin-walled parts or large covering parts with high flow length.

In addition, premature cooling of the polymer melt will also cause surface defects such as weld marks, flow marks, and depressions on the surface of plastic parts, thereby greatly reducing the surface quality of the product. It not only increases the production cost and energy consumption, but also pollutes the environ
