PROJECT REPORT

1 BASICSThe single most important component in the moulding process is the Mould. Some times cost of the mould overtakes machine cost and always plays a vital role in deciding the product cost.

Almost 70% of the plastic products are produced by Injection Moulding method among all the plastics processing techniques available so far. So it is obvious that a large number of Injection moulds are made everywhere. Accordingly a lot of developments in mould making techniques have taken place. Hot Runner Mould is one of such great achievements in mould making field.

1. EVOLUTION OF HOT RUNNER MOULDS

Shaping of plastic materials in an Injection mould, particularly in a multi-cavity one needs a well-laid feeding system. The feeding system carries the plastic melt, under pressure, from the nozzle of the injection moulding machine to the entry point of the mould cavity and the continuity of the pressure helps the melt to reach the extreme end of the impression. The receiving end of the melt is known as Sprue. The Sprue delivers the melt on the main feeding channel known as Runner and further branching of it is known as sub-runners. The narrow bridge between cavity and the runner or sub-runner is known as Gate. In general the combination of sprue, runner and sub-runners is regarded as RUNNER SYSTEM.

In conventional moulding process the runner system is always moulded and ejected along with the moulded article in every cycle. This moulded runner is use less and forcibly produced as waste because of the technological barrier. But elimination of the runner system in the conventional moulding process is not possible. On the other hand the total volume of the runners and sprue exceeds that of the mouldings in case of multi-impression moulds quite often. More volume means more cycle time, more manpower loss and there by

Production Department 6

Page 7: Final Project Me

PROJECT REPORTmore wastage. One can argue of reusing the scrap as seconds and mixing to virgin material, but, still the process is uneconomical.

Paying a constructive attention to eliminating moulding and ejection of

the runner system is worth the effort. Evolution of HOT RUNNER

SYSTEM is the right result of such progressive thought. Incorporation

of the Hot Runner System in the conventional mould makes it a HOT

RUNNER MOULD.

The Hot Runner Mould consists of a runner system, which remain hot

and keeps the plastics in molten condition right up to the gate point all

along the production cycle. So the runner system is never moulded

and ejected unlike conventional mould in every cycle. On injection

only the cavities are filled to form the moulding. During ejection

stroke the moulding is degated and ejected out of the mould. Perhaps

this is the reason the hot runner mould is often called as runner less

mould.

1. TYPES OF HOT RUNNER SYSTEM

Hot Runner System gives an opportunity to make either hot runner

mould or semi-hot runner mould. Hot runner moulds eliminate the

entire runner system where the Semi hot runner moulds eliminate a

part of the runner system. choice for fabrication of such types of

moulds is left to user’s economic consideration as well as geometry

and aesthetic of the product.

The classification of Hot Runner Systems is subject to the kind of

heating provision available with it. They are two types in general, i.e.

Production Department 7

Page 8: Final Project Me

PROJECT REPORTi. Externally Heated Hot Runner Systems

In this case the melt is heated from out side while passing through the feeding channel. Electrical heaters supply the heat.

ii. Internally Heated Hot Runner Systems

In this case the heater is placed inside the feeding channel and the melt is supplied with heat from inside.

A third variety of system is also available, known as Combination

System. In this type the runner system contains a mixture of both

externally and internally heated hot runner systems.Indirect heating

system.

This kind of heating system is limited to Hot Nozzles only. The indirectly heated nozzles do not have any dedicated heater. It receives the required heat from the manifold to which it is attached. This is why the nozzles for indirect heating should be made from good heat conducting materials like BeCu, Cu or other such alloys. The main advantage of this type is simplification of design. However their temperature can not be controlled directly and independently.

1. HOT RUNNER ELEMENTS

Various elements used in hot runner systems are broadly divided into

two types as per their function. These are Path Elements and

Heating System Elements.

Path Elements consists of the followings

i. Hot Sprue Bushing

ii. ManifoldProduction Department 8

Page 9: Final Project Me

PROJECT REPORTiii. Injection Nozzles

Heating System Elements consists of the followings

i. Heaters

ii. Temperature Sensors

iii. Temperature Controller

Hot Sprue Bushing

The hot sprue bushings are designated to remove the superfluous direct gate on single mouldings. Also this is used to carry plastic melt up to main runner in case of multiple gate design.

Manifold

The heart of the hot runner system is the ‘MANIFOLD’. Manifold is a heated block, which houses the runner system. Distribution of the melt to every gate points takes place in this heated block. Leading standard mould base and components’ manufacturers have standardized various types of manifolds and these are readily available. Apart from this, customized mould bases can be easily manufactured with respect to the runner system design.

Injection Nozzles

Injection nozzle also some times called as Secondary nozzles is a part of the hot runner system which provides as connecting flow path from the manifold block to the cavity entry point. There are a number of possible designs of these nozzles available in the market. Most commonly used are cylindrical in shape and usually incorporate a threaded section

Production Department 9

Page 10: Final Project Me

PROJECT REPORTwhich screws into the manifold block. A leak free joint between nozzle and manifold is essential.

Heaters

In practice electrical heaters are normally used for heating. Different types of heaters are engaged to supply heat to different sections of the hot runner system. Catridge heater, Tubular heater, Band heater and Coil heater etc. are most commonly used one.

1. Catridge heatersMost Common method of manifold heating is done with catridge heaters. They are placed inside accurately drilled and reamed holes parallel to the runner. The advantage lies with easy replacement of the heaters. Catridge heaters are commercially available as standard part in various diameters, lengths and wattage.

2. Tabular heaters

3. Band heater

4. Coil heater

Temperature Sensors

The hot runner system remains hot during its entire operation. Temperature sensor is essential to keep track of the temperature of the manifold and other components. Different types of thermocouples are used to sense the temperature and give feed back to the controlling unit.

Temperature Controller

Hot runner moulds are extremely sensitive to temperature variation in nozzle and gate area. Even a change of a few degrees in temperature can interrupt the moulding process. Many times a high volume of rejections result because of temperature variation. Exact temperature control is, there fore, an important precondition for a good and automatically operating hot runner mould. Temperature controllers receive feed back from the heaters with the help of thermocouples and

Production Department 10

Page 11: Final Project Me

PROJECT REPORTregulate the temperature of by varying the current supply. In principle each nozzle should be controlled individually for easy and smooth flow of the melt. Dedicated controllers are now available which houses a number of controllers to control multiple zones of the hot runner system.

(C) Shot Weight Required

Shot Weight = 33 grams

2. SHOT CAPACITY:-

The screw type machine is normally rated in terms of “Swept Volume”

of the injection cylinder (Cu. Cms).

Machine Available is SP 80. For SP 80 Swept Volume is 49 cm3

Shot capacity (g) = Swept Vol. (Cm3) x p x C

p = Density of plastic at normal temperature (g/cm3)

C = 0.93 for amorphous materials.

Shot capacity (g) = 49 X 1.2 X 0.93

= 54.68 grams

3. PLASTICISING CAPACITY:

Plasticizing rate of material B (g/hr) = plasticizing rate of

material A (g/hr) x QA/QB

Plasticizing rate of material B (g/hr) = 4.7 X (3600/1000) X

(239.4/302.4)

PB= 13.395 Kg/hr

4. Locking Force Calculations:-

The clamping force required to keep the mould closed during injection must exceed the force given by the product of the opening pressure in the cavity and the total projected area of all impressions

Production Department 22

Page 23: Final Project Me

PROJECT REPORTand runners. Lower clamping values can be used with screw presses owing to the lower injection pressures possible with these machines.

Thin sections need a high injection pressure to fill and therefore require more clamping force. Easy flowing materials like high melt index polyethylene and polystyrene fill more readily and hence require a lower clamping force. In the case of screw injection 2/3 to 1/2 times of injection Pressure should be taken for Clamping purposes. Max. Injection pressure may be obtained from press manufacture’s data sheet.

(A) Projected Area of the component = 9000 mm

(E) Total Projected Area =9000 mm

(F) Clamping Force = {Total Projected Area

X 1/2 Injection pressure}

= 1250 X 0.5 X 900

= 40 KN

(G) Locking Force = 1.2 X clamping force

(20% safety)

= 48 KN

Determination of number of Cavities:

The number of cavities in injection moulds is determined in most cases by the machine performance, but some times by the moulding shape or the mould locking pressure.

Machine Selection

Machine selection for making any plastic moulding should be based principally on max. shot capacity, max. die opening and die size, max. & min. die height, clamping force and operating stroke, length of shot stroke, tie bar distance, over-all size and cost.

The thumb rule for selection of plastic moulding machine is to use the smallest machine that will do the job. This will ensure fundamental economy of operation, since the larger the machine, the slower its cycle. Clamping force is not necessary the deciding factor in the selection of a plastic moulding machine. Die dimensions must be considered. The machine adequate tonnage for casting a part may have insufficient platen area or tie-rod spacing for the die, or the opening stroke may not be sufficient for removal of component.

Machine available for this case is SP 80.

PROCESS PLANNING

Production Department 39

Page 40: Final Project Me

PROJECT REPORT As work piece quantities and costs in press work are usually high, considerable

economy can be affected by choosing an appropriate sequence of operations and

the right type of tooling. The process plan should take into account the total cost:

material, tooling, labour (time). Process planning generally includes the following

considerations.

Quantity required – total and annual,

Work piece – shape and size,

Work piece – dimensional tolerances,

Work piece – material limitations,

Equipment available for manufacture.

In every tool, the process planning done a vital role and it is

followed by above mentioned points. To manufacture the parts of the tool, it is

necessary to follow the proper methodology of manufacturing, so that one can get

accurate dimensional stability for that particular part within appropriate time.

In Die casting dies also all the parts of the tool are

manufactured by considering all above mentioned sequence and choosing of

machining sequence. Below mentioned sheet expresses all the view of machining

sequence of the tool. Similarly all the parts of the tool are manufactured by the

same followed suit.

HEAT TREATMENT DETAIL

Heat Treatment of steel may be defined as an operation or combination

of operations involving the heating and cooling the steel in solid state;

Production Department 48

Page 49: Final Project Me

PROJECT REPORTso as to modify its properties and to make it suitable for a particular

uses.

Purposes of Heat Treatment –

The heat treatment is done for following purposes

1) To improve machinability.

2) To produce a hard surface on a ductile interior.

3) To refine grain size.

4) To relieve internal stress or eliminate the effect of cold working.

5) To increase mechanical properties.

6) To increase the resistance to wear, heat & corrosion.

7) To improve magnetic & electric properties.

8) To change chemical composition.

9) To increase cutting properties of steel.

10) To remove gases.

Hardening

It is a method of steel heating, 40 - 500C above the upper critical

temperature for hypo eutectoid steel or 40 - 500 above lower critical

temperature for hyper eutectoid steel, soaking for a specified time. The

hardness obtained by hardening process depends upon following –

1) Carbon content

2) Quenching rate

3) Work size

Quenching

Mark tempering – it is a process in which a steel is heated at the

hardening temperature soaked for a specified time & quenched in

Cost estimation…

1) Designing cost The amount and cost of time spent in designing a product are

estimated either on the basis of similar jobs previously

manufactured or on the basis of good judgment of designer. For

new and complicated product the job estimator must consult the

designer.

It is always preferable that standard rates per hour be used to

calculate the cost of designer’s time, and actual rates which are

usually paid on a monthly or any other basis.

It required, 60hours - 2D designing 20 hours - 3D modeling

As, 2D designing cost = 300 per hours 3D modeling cost = 500 per hours

2D designing cost 60 x 300 = 18000 /- 3D designing cost 20 x 500 = 10000/- ---------------- 28000/-

TOTAL DESIGNING COST = 28,000 /-

2) Material costs.

For estimating the material cost of the product, following steps

are followed.

Find out the volume of the material.

Multiply it with density of the material.

The drawings of the product to be manufactured are broken up

into smaller simpler parts and their volumes are calculated by

applying the formulae.

Volume of square or rectangular cube = L x B x H. Where, L = length of piece, B = breadth of piece, H = height of piece.

Volume of cylinder = 2π RH.Where, π = constant i.e. 3.14 or 22/7, R = radius of piece, H = height of piece.

Volume of pyramid =( L x B x H)/3Where, L = length of piece, B = breadth of piece,

H = height of piece.

Density of steel = 7.86 gm/cm³

INSPECTION

Due to the great advancement, the continuous improvements in

the production methods and increasing quality demands, the Industrial

Production Department 60

Page 61: Final Project Me

PROJECT REPORTInspection does not mean fulfilling of the specifications lay down by the

manufacturer. Rather the Inspection in real sense is concerned with the

checking of a product at various stages of manufacturing, right from the

raw material form to the finished products in the hands of the end

customer. That is what called as the CUSTOMER SATISFACTION.

Thus, the Inspection led to the development of the precise

Inspection instruments which helps to change over from the traditional

lesser accurate machines to better design and more precise machines.

It also led to the improvements in metallurgy and raw material

manufacturing due to high demand of accuracy and precision.

Ultimately it leads to the QUALITY IMPROVEMENT.

After manufacturing of all the parts they are transferred to Quality

Control department to check the accuracy of profile also it’s positioning

from the reference. Various geometrical features such as

perpendicularity, parallelism, circularity, run out, and etc if required.

Inspection of all the parts are carried out by trained personal and precisely working machines and it is followed by below mentioned path

FITTING & ASSEMBLY

ASSEMBLY - PROCESS PLANNING

Production Department 61

Page 62: Final Project Me

PROJECT REPORT First of all the assembly & sub-assembly is to be studied the

process is planned considering the functional requirement along

with fitment of mating parts showing indications & directions.

The detail record is maintained of each part required for the

assembly right from the material received to the final inspection

report.

The details of the process of each part can be obtained from the

job cards. While the dimensions with tolerances can be known

from the inspection reports.

The details of part reaching the assembly can be obtained from

the bar chart made before starting the actual manufacturing.

ASSEMBLY – PROCESS

While assembly of all parts and sub units first of all check the

following things.

Production Department 62

Page 63: Final Project Me

PROJECT REPORT Study the drawing.

Check the component thoroughly.

Collect and analyze the mating parts and its dimensions.

Check the deburring if not then deburr it.

Before final assembly, check the fault occurring between mating

parts.

The Pre-machining & assembly is done in the Assembly &

Fitting section. Then centre drilling done on the plates, on NC machine.

Then drilling operation, for cooling holes, tapping holes are performed

on the bench drilling machines. Then those holes get tapped. Then after

the manufacturing of all the parts, actual assembly gets starts. All

standard parts available like Allen screw, etc which is required during

assembly are collected.

After manufacturing of Core and Cavity inserts are

transferred to Quality Control department to check the accuracy of

profile also it’s positioning from the reference. Various geometrical

features such as perpendicularity, parallelism, circularity, run out, and

etc. if required. For assembly of tool various points which are to be

considered are as following.

Check all parts of standard die set and plate thickness for

further calculation.

Production Department 63

PROJECT REPORT Check all the standard parts which are being used in this tool.

All the inserts are maintained as per drawing for easy fitment.

Check the all alignments and fitments of all matting parts.

Identification marks are marked on each part to avoid further

confusion after disassembly.

PROJECT REPORT The project was a medium for me to enhance my knowledge in the field of

tool & Die Making. It helped me lot in better understanding of the concepts of

Injection Mould manufacturing.

During the project I had to communicate with various departments and

authorities to solve the problems and difficulties around in between. It has

helped to improve my abilities to work as a team.

A Hot tip mould for Bottom housing was required to be completed in a

specific period of time for which I had to work to the best of my abilities to

complete the Hot tip mould.

In the project work I was given an opportunity to study the HOT TIP Mould

right from manufacturing to dispatch as per planned time period, which

stretched our limits to achieve the goal.

It was a nice opportunity for me to learn about such a tool, thus enhancing

my knowledge.

CONCLUSION

Production Department 66

Page 67: Final Project Me

PROJECT REPORTA complete mould designer must have a through

knowledge of the principles of the mould making as the design of the

various parts of the mold depends on the technique adopted for its

manufacturer. Case studies of the various moulds of same kind have

been conducted prior to the design process. Proper evaluation of the

previous designs were performed and created something even better

instead of simply keeping to what was done previously. The various

demands of the customer were considered while designing of the

tool. The final mould design is prepared after the part design has

been specified and all requirements affecting the design of mould

have been clarified. The outcome is a near perfect design and the

trail made on the mould just about confirms it.
