Frequently Asked Questions About Vertical Injection Molding
1. When would I use vertical instead of horizontal injection molding?
Vertical machines are ideally suited to machine inserts, delicate parts, or where floor space is not available.
2. What is the application of rotary table machines?
They are most ideally suited for a consolidation of operations like insert placement, molding, and inspection in one operation.
3. Do vertical machines machine regular plastic materials?
Yes, they machine all of the large thermoplastics and special compounds.
4. What volumes can be made?
Although employed mostly on small to medium lots, our machines are fully capable of large lot processing with extensive automation.
5. What does the C-frame design contribute to manufacturing?
It contributes vertical machine space savings and horizontal injection material handling advantages.
6. What are they safeguarded by as far as safety?
They are safeguarded by complete guarding, emergency stops, and safety interlocks on all machines.
7. How easy is mold change on the vertical machines?
We keep equipment to facilitate quick mold change in an effort to minimize downtime in production.
8. What kind of maintenance do they need?
Regular cleaning, lubrication, and part inspection ensure maximum performance.
9. Are the machines automatable?
Yes, they are made with flexibility to integrate into material handlers and robot systems.
10. Why utilize ATPL vertical injection molding?
We offer the broadest range of vertical solutions with improved technical support.
