AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

During the freezing and shearing process, when the gate area is rapidly cooled to below -50°C, the material surface comes into contact with ambient moisture to form crystal water, which leads to a material recycling chain reaction, affecting the particle uniformity and mechanical properties of the recycled material. Furthermore, the existing process requires long-term hot air drying to avoid moisture contamination, resulting in segmented operation of the production line.

Method used

The system employs a top-sprayed cooling airflow to freeze the gate and shear it. Combined with extrusion rollers, it separates ice crystal waste from soft rubber material. The material is then dried and crushed through a suction structure, achieving integrated gate shearing, crushing, and recycling.

Benefits of technology

It achieves residue-free freezing shearing at the gate, effectively separates ice crystals from the soft rubber head, avoids the formation of crystal water, improves the particle uniformity and mechanical properties of recycled material, and simplifies the production process.

Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application relates to the technical field of recycling equipment for injection molding waste, in particular to injection gate shearing equipment for automobile injection molding part trims. BACKGROUND

[0002] In the field of high-end automobile interiors, soft glue materials such as TPU and TPE are widely used in complex curved surface decoration parts due to their excellent touch and modeling adaptability. The freeze shearing technology (dry ice / liquid nitrogen) has become the mainstream gate removal scheme because it can avoid the problem of traditional process focus marks or burrs. However, the low-temperature characteristics of the freeze shearing technology cause the shearing surface to adsorb environmental moisture and form crystalline water, which significantly restricts the material recycling chain.

[0003] During the freeze shearing process, when the gate area is rapidly cooled to below -50 DEG C, the material surface contacts with the environmental moisture to form crystalline water. These crystalline waters exist in the form of physical adsorption or hydrogen bond at the fracture, which produces a chain reaction during subsequent crushing and recycling: first, the friction heat of the crusher causes the crystalline water to melt, which causes the soft glue to adhere to the broken material and form a block, reducing the uniformity of the particles; second, the water penetrates into the material to cause the hydrolysis and rupture of the TPU / TPE molecular chain, and the mechanical properties of the regenerated material are attenuated by more than 15%; in addition, the residual moisture vaporizes to form micropores during granulation, further deteriorating the quality of the regenerated particles.

[0004] To avoid the above risks, the current process requires hot air drying of the sheared parts for more than 12 hours, which forces the production line to operate in sections. More seriously, the detection of crystalline water relies on offline sampling, and when the drying is not thorough, the moisture mixed with the adhesive material of the broken material forms a "wet grinding effect", directly polluting the entire batch of regenerated material.
