injection compression
The injection compression technology exploits two different stages of the injection machine to form the piece. The first stage consists of the injection trough the screw of the IMM while the second stage relates to the plasticization of the piece, due to the surfaces of the mould coming in contact with each other during the closing of the IMM. This second stage is the innovative part of the process.
The injection compression technology allows to form the pieces through these two different stages and above all, as a result of the plasticizing stage, it is possible to obtain pieces with enhanced properties.
Then there is a further advantage, which is obtained by injecting the plastic with a much lower injection pressure compared to the traditional injection technology; in fact using this new method the plastic material can be injected when the mould is still open, allowing it to flow into the cavity with much lower injection pressures. This reduces the stress to which the plastic is subjected.
The reduction of the stresses caused by compression together with a reduced stress on the plastic achieved by means of a lower injection pressure ensure improved resistance properties to the piece.
This results in a reduction of the weight under equal resistance conditions or in a greater resistance under equal weight conditions.
