Compact Handheld Device for Casting in Small Batch Sizes
Molding Machine with Sliding Table for Medium Batch Sizes
Various Applications
The molding machine from Schäfer is designed for molding hotmelt polyamides on technical components. This provides insulation and mechanical protection for specific assemblies, allowing them to withstand extreme conditions such as heat, dust, or moisture. The powerful machine is designed for high productivity in medium-sized batch sizes, making it ideal for various applications in the automotive, electronics, and sensor industries.
High Quality in Molding
The components are precisely positioned and fixed in the tool before the machine takes over the process completely: it automatically closes the tool, accurately positions the nozzle at the molding channel, and controls the material dosage into the mold area. Modern sensors continuously monitor the temperature, ensuring consistently high quality and perfect molding results.
Premium Hotmelt Materials
Our high-quality hotmelt adhesives are ideal for technological applications and offer a variety of advantages. They provide rapid curing, enabling efficient production. Additionally, they are versatile and can be applied to various surfaces. Their strong adhesion ensures high durability, while their high temperature resistance guarantees reliable connections in demanding conditions.
High Efficiency with Sliding Table
The machine consists of a melting device and the molding unit.
One tool upper part is fixed, while two lower parts are located on the integrated change table. This movable table allows parts to be removed and reloaded during the machine processing in the other tool. The seamless changeover results in impressive cycle times, making it ideal for series production in the industry.
Additional Functions of the Machine
The low-pressure molding machine enables:
- Automatic closing of the molding tool
- Automatic movement of the injection head
- Lateral movement of the lower part of the injection tool to the process position
- Electronic control of injection, holding, and cooling time
High Safety for Operators
Operator safety is ensured by two-hand controls and a monitored safety device. Removing safety covers interrupts the electrical safety circuit, halting the processing operation. Furthermore, the machine fully complies with European regulations regarding both mechanical and electrical safety as well as electromagnetic compatibility.
Advantages of the Machine
- Flexibility through processing of numerous materials
- No downtime and short cycle times
- Reproducible results and high quality
- Automatic processes for high process reliability
- Maximum productivity in changeover operation
- Ergonomic loading with sliding table
