1. Thermoforming
The Air slip thermoforming machine with sheet feed system arebeing used in thermoforming section. HIPS sheet is placed in the machine and heatersmove forward and sheet is heated to softening point. Then compressed air is blownfrom down side of sheet to form a balloon for the purpose of even wall thicknessdistribution. The preheated mold moves up to level of sheet and the Stretched plastic isthen forced against the mold by application of vacuum. Air is blown on mold from upper side for cooling purpose and water circulate in the mold to keep it temperature withinlimited range. After cabinet or door forming the extra sides (which is used for clampingthe sheet) are trimmed by operator or helper with handheld knives.

T HERMOFORMING P ROCESS
The thermoforming process consists of four phases:
1. Sheet transportation2. Heating3. Forming/cooling4. Trimming.
D EVELOPMENT OF HIGH IMPACT POLYSTYRENES (HIPS)
POLYSTYRENES (PS) are one of the eldest commercially producedthermoplastic polymers, having been introduced in the 1930s. The homopolymer,known as crystal PS. is a brilliant, clear, non-crystalline plastic with excellent stiffnessand processibility. However, the low impact strength of crystal PS limits its use. High-impact polystyrene (HIPS) was developed in the early 1950s to meet the demand for atougher resin.
Commercial Forms
Standard HIPS grades are widely used in packaging and in durable goods. In recentyears, many specialty grades that have been developed to satisfy new applicationscompete with more costly engineering thermoplastics. Grades are now available that

provide improved resistance to stress cracking from fats, oils and chlorofluorocarbon(CFC) blowing agents. Usually the HIPS grade plastic is used in the refrigenerator industry.
2. ExtrusionGasket:
The gasket profile is extruded using soft PVC. While extrusion compressed air isblown from inside the die so that Gasket should keep its profile uniform and keep it
inflated. The gasket is immediately cooled with water spray which solidifies the material
Normal Line Speed: 10m/min
The gasket is cut into required length with 45 angle at corners. Now Flexible FerriteMagnetic Strip is entered in and then foam. The gaskets are joined by hot weldingprocess to form rectangular profile for refrigerator and freezer door.
THERMO PLASTIC EXTRUSION
In extrusion, a melted polymer is forced through an orifice with a particular cross
section (the die), and a continuous shape is formed with a constant cross section similar to that of the orifice. A longitudinal section of a screw extruder is shown in Figure.Among the products that can be produced by extrusion are film, sheet, tubing, pipes,insulation, and home siding. In each case the profile is determined by the die geometry,and solidification is by cooling.

POLYVINYL CHLORIDE (PVC)
Poly(vinyl chloride) is the plastic known at thehardware store as PVC. This is the PVC from which pipes aremade, and PVC pipe is everywhere. The plumbing in your house is probably PVC pipe, unless it's an older house. PVC pipe is what rural highschools with small budgets use to make goal posts for their football fields. But there'smore to PVC than just pipe. The "vinyl" siding used on houses is made of poly(vinyl
chloride). Inside the house, PVC is used to make linoleum for the floor. In the seventies,PVC was often used to make vinyl car tops.
PVC is difficult to recycle, resulting in much of it ending up in landfills. Chemicals,such as phthalates are added to PVC to make it soft and flexible.
1. Harness AssemblyHarness:
A gathering of electrical wires terminating in a central plug that usually operates the turn
signals, brake lights, and electrical brakes for a mobile office. Wiring Harness created
here is used to convey signal from thermostat to compressor, from door to light bulb and
contact the system to the power.

Wires of required length are cut down form wire roll. Different terminals and connectors
are added to it and step by step working thermostat is formed. After completion it is
checked my meter. Usually the harness terminates in the thermostat, bulb andcompressor terminals.
2. Foaming
In this section the bodies and doors are foamed with polyurethane
Cabinet are kept pre-oven at 40-45C for some time. The amount of material to be
injected in the body is controlled by maintaining 31 Kg/m3 density. Density is keptconstant and volume is measured hence mass can be calculated.If the ratio starts increasing than it start becoming harder and its insulation property startdecreasing. And if it start decreasing then it becomes soft, providing poor structuralstrength.
POLYURETHANES (PUR)
Polyisocyanates represents the key substance in the polyurethane (PUR) chemistry.
The general structure in R-(NCO)n, where n typically equals 2 to 4, or even higher and
R is a n aromatic or aliphatic group. In many cases, both hydroxyl and amine reactions
are involved. The resulting polymers are poly (urea urethanes). If water is present, it too
can react with isocyanate group, forming urea linkage and carbon dioxide.
The formation of CO2 leads to generation of gas in the reaction mixture. This effect is
used to produce PUR foams.ISOCYANATES :
The aromatic isocyanates are important members of this family. They are most reactive
than the aliphatic type and less expensive and therefore claim the largest share of
production volume. In spite of their inherits toxicity, isocyanates can be safety
precautions are used. Toluene diisocyanate (TDI) is the largest product (in volume) of

all isocyanates. It is a diisocyanate that is usually of 80% 2,4-isomer and 20% 2,6-
isomer
P OLYOLS , C ROSS LINKERS , AND CHAIN EXTENDERS :The counterparts for the reaction wit the diisocyanates (the so-called iso side) are
hydroxyl or amino-terminated components (the so-called poly side).
Low molecular weight components are used as chain extenders (bi-functional) or cross
linkers higher functionalities). In combination with the diisocyanates, they especially
influence the high temperature properties of resulting PURs. Typical structures are
PUR IN THE REFRIGERATION INDUSTRY
RIGID FOAMThe primary application for rigid PUR foam is the thermal insulation. These foams are of
major importance to the transportation industry, especially with respect to frozen food,
and for containers for trucks, aircraft, trains and ships. They are used in warehouses,
walk-in coolers, displays cases, refrigerators, and deep freezers.
In many cases, using PUR rigid foam could reduce wall thickness by up to 45%
compared to other insulation materials. This is a consequence of the low thermal
conductivity of the foam and its use as a structural elements in the most of these frozen
storage applications. Additional applications are found in the insulation for the storage
vessels, pipelines, doors, roofs, and tank; as lightweight concrete aggregate for wall
panels and windows sills; and as integrated insulation for building blocks

1. Plastic Injection Moulding
Injection Molding is the process of forcing melted plastic in to a mold cavity. Once theplastic has cooled, the part can be ejected. Injection molding is often used in mass-
production and prototyping. Injection molding is a relatively new way to manufactureparts
Injection molding is perhaps the most common and versatile method of forming plasticinto products. In essence, the injection molding process converts raw material plastic, inthe form of solid pellets, into a highly viscous fluid; the material is then pushed or injected into a mold. Once the product is formed, and the mold is opened and the partextracted: at this point, it is essentially ready for use. This process allows for partdesigns with a great deal of intricacy, including fine small parts, thin webs decorativedesigns and surface finishes, extremely high gloss surface finishes, and highly complex
contours and shapes

Die casting is the process of forcing molten metal under high pressure into mold cavities
(which are machined into dies). Most die castings are made from non-ferrous metals,
specifically zinc, copper, aluminium, magnesium, lead, and tin based alloys, althoughferrous metal die castings are possible. The die casting method is especially suited for
applications where a large quantity of small to medium sized parts are needed with
good detail, a fine surface quality and dimensional consistency. This level of versatility
has placed die castings among the highest volume products made in the metalworking
industry. In recent years, injection-molded plastic parts have replaced some die castings
because they are cheaper and lighter.

Molding or moulding is the process of manufacturing by shaping pliable raw materialusing a rigid frame or model called a pattern.A mold or mould is a hollowed-out block that is filled with a liquid like plastic, glass,metal, or ceramic raw materials. The liquid hardens or sets inside the mold, adopting itsshape. A mold is the opposite of a cast. The manufacturer who makes the molds iscalled the mold maker. A release agent is typically used to make removal of thehardened/set substance from the mold easier.
TWO-PLATE MOLD:
The vast majority of molds consist essentially of two halves, as shown below.This kind of mold is used for parts that are typically gated on or around their edge, withthe runner in the same mold plate as the cavity.
THREE-PLATE MOLD:
The three-plate mold is typically used for parts that are gated away from their edge. The runner is in two plates, separate from the cavity and core, as shown in Figurebelow .
(left) a two-plate mold . (right) a three-platemold.
SINGLE CORE MOLD:

Only one product is obtained from a single core mold.
MULTIPLE CORE MOLD:
We get more than one same product from a multiple coremold.
DIFFERENCE BETWEEN DIES & MOLDS :
1. Dies are used for metals and molds are for plastics.2. Materials cannot be filled in die, & vice versa.3. Different operations such as shearing, blanking, piercing etc can be done by die
only.4. The whole is through the die whereas there is a partial hole in the molds.
