Sumitomo (SHI) Demag manufactures functional lightweight components at the HYBRID Expo 2015

Significant savings potential through functional integration

To meet the increasing demands of users for plastic products, they must not only be produced cost-effectively in high quality but also combine various functions within themselves. At HYBRID Expo 2015, Sumitomo (SHI) Demag demonstrates the further development of the manufacturing process for hybrid c…

Tobias Lacroix, Head of the Micro Injection Moulding Department, is completely satisfied with the new fully electric IntElect injection moulding machine from Sumitomo (SHI) Demag:

The six-axis articulated arm robot removes the finished test components from the four-cavity mould and then loads them onto a small load carrier. (Photo: Sumitomo (SHI) Demag)

Once the load carrier is completely filled, it disappears on the conveyor belt towards the assembly hall. The entire process is fully enclosed; dust and other contaminants have no chance. (Photo: Sumitomo (SHI) Demag)

During the active production, the process can only be supervised through a glass window. Under class 7 cleanroom conditions, the injection moulding machine, automation equipment, and assembly must not come into close contact with the operator. (Photo by Sumitomo (SHI) Demag)

At regular intervals, the machine operator takes samples of the quick test components, which are removed from the production process via the QS tray. These are thoroughly inspected by experts in the in-house test laboratory. (Photo by Sumitomo (SHI) Demag)

What appears to be a piece from the Museum of Modern Art actually shows the delicate channels and structures of a disposable rapid test – greatly magnified.

Microstructures that can no longer be resolved with the naked eye are ejected from the injection molding machine with every shot. Each part is almost a clone of its predecessor. (Photo: thinXXS)

Medical engineering meets injection moulding technology: The story of a perfect symbiosis

By a hair’s breadth

The staff at thinXXS Microtechnology AG in Zweibrücken/Germany focuses on these specific attributes: minute, delicate and precise. The company manufactures disposable quick-tests for applications such as medical diagnostics for customers from the pharmaceutical and diagnostics segments with a focus…

Compact production cell with a Systec 210 that combines IML and IMD technology. A multi-touch-capable display is efficiently produced here in a single shot.

On the clamping side of the mould, the frame of the 5'' large display is decorated directly during injection using the IMD unit.

Housing parts for a smartphone made from an ABS/PC blend, produced on an all-electric SE 180 EV, equipped with the innovative SL plasticising system. The system operates with a fully heated plasticising screw without a compression zone (screw); the material supply is handled by a downstream dosing screw (GS Loader).

Products manufactured with all-electric IntElect precision: Smart key shell (on the left) with components made of PC/ABS blend, produced in a six-cavity family mold on an IntElect 100, and components for a
