Gas based technologies for higher productivity in injection moulding

Rising demand and competitive pressures call for faster cycle times and reduced scrap rates while meeting the rising customer expectations around material strength and quality.  

Gas solutions represent energy-efficient opportunities for manufacturers to increase productivity and product quality as well as enhancing environmental performance.

Linde Group, have been working closely with the plastics and rubber industries for decades and have developed and delivered ground-breaking and patented gas-enabled solutions tailored specifically to the needs of plastics manufacturers.

The state-of-the-art technologies and customised gas supply schemes guarantee the moulders increased productivity, speed, quality and environmental gains. 

Pic. Foam injection moulding in the automotive industry: less weight, less material.

Foaming is an effective means of reducing the weight of any injection moulded plastic part.

Linde’s revolutionary system allows for physical foaming in conventional injection moulding machines without retrofitting or adding more expensive equipment, thus reducing production costs and offering a more flexible system. 

Learn more on the Gas Applications for Increasing Productivity in Plastic Injection Moulding at the upcoming BPF webinar with presentations by The Linde Group and BOC on 23^rd July, 12.00 - 12.45.

  REGISTER FOR THE WEBINAR

The webinar will cover:

• Mould spot cooling for faster cycle times and improved quality
• Gas assisted injection moulding (Nitrogen & Carbon dioxide) – for reduced cycle times, increase run times and improved product quality
• Foam injection moulding – for increased production, de-weighting and reduced raw material consumption
• Carbon dioxide cleaning – for faster, less damaging & more environmentally friendly  cleaning of moulds and manufacturing equipment
• Nitrogen for raw material hopper inerting – to avoid material oxidation & extending production 
runs.

The Linde Group, which BOC is a part of, have a long and continuing history of development of gas based applications.

The key presenter of the Webinar,  Andreas Praller,  has had more than 20 years working with the industry to deliver competitive manufacturing advantage amongst Linde’s plastic manufacturing customer base.  The secondary presenter,  Tim Wigfall, is BOC’s Technical Specialist for Chemical, Cryogenic and Environmental applications in the UK and Ireland.
