What are the hazards of the temperature rise of the injection molding machine?

Date:2018-07-18

The hazards of excessive temperature rise of the injection molding machine include: causing thermal deformation of the machine, lowering the viscosity of the oil, deforming the rubber seal, accelerating the oxidative deterioration of the oil, and also reducing the component pressure of the air.

One of the hazards: thermal deformation of the machine

The moving parts with different thermal expansion coefficients in the hydraulic components are stuck due to their smaller training habits, causing malfunction and affecting the transmission precision of the hydraulic system, resulting in poor working quality of the components.

Hazard 2: Reduce the viscosity of the oil

Excessive temperature rise in the injection molding machine will result in lower viscosity of the oil, increased leakage, and a significant reduction in pump volumetric efficiency and overall system efficiency. As the viscosity of the oil is lowered, the oil film of the moving parts such as the spool is thinned and cut, and the frictional resistance is increased, resulting in an increase in wear.

Hazard 3: Deform the rubber seal

Excessive temperature rise of the injection molding machine will deform the rubber seal, accelerate the aging failure, reduce the sealing performance and service life, and cause leakage.

Hazard 4: Accelerate oil oxidation and deterioration

If the temperature rise of the injection molding machine is too high, it will accelerate the oxidation and deterioration of the oil, precipitate the asphalt material, and reduce the service life of the hydraulic oil. The precipitate blocks the damper orifice and the slit valve port, causing the pressure valve to become stuck and unable to move, the metal pipe to be elongated and bent, or even broken.

Hazard 5: Causes the quality of parts to work poorly

If the temperature rise of the injection molding machine is too high, the working quality of the components will be deteriorated, and the dissolved air in the oil will escape and generate air pockets, resulting in a decrease in the working performance of the hydraulic system. The ideal operating temperature of the hydraulic system should be between 45 and 50 degrees, because the hydraulic system is designed according to the viscosity of a selected pressure oil, but the viscosity will change with the temperature of the oil, which will affect the work in the system. Components such as cylinders, hydraulic valves, etc., reduce control accuracy and response sensitivity, especially for precision injection machines.

At the same time, if the temperature is too high, the aging of the sealing member will be accelerated to harden and break. When the temperature is too low, the processing energy consumption is large, and the running speed is lowered. Therefore, it is necessary to pay close attention to the working temperature of the hydraulic oil. There are many reasons for the high oil temperature, but it is mostly due to the failure of the oil circuit or the failure of the cooling system.
