Water chillers that operate with injection molding machines must maintain a stable temperature and avoid unnecessary short cycling of the compressors to ensure optimal performance. Short cycling (i.e., frequent on and off of the compressor) shortens compressor life, increases energy consumption, and can cause system failures. We will examine how water chiller design can address… Continue reading How to prevent short cycling of the water chiller compressor?
The role of the water chiller is to regulate the mold temperature during the injection molding process to prevent defects such as warping or long cycle times. In injection molding, the cooling process is as vital as the molding process. Efficient cooling ensures high-quality parts, faster production cycles, and significant energy savings; for manufacturers pursuing… Continue reading How to use water chiller to achieve efficient and energy-saving injection molding cooling？
Injection molding plants across North America often face high energy costs when using water chillers. Some traditional water chillers are inefficient, resulting in a surge in operating expenses. In addition, hard water in some parts of North America (such as the Great Lakes) causes scale accumulation that results in a 20%-30% drop in heat transfer… Continue reading Improving injection molding performance at North American sites with Topstar’s water chiller solutions
Maintaining high yields and ensuring the quality of molded parts during injection molding can be challenging, as injection molding machines generate high temperatures when operating, which can lead to problems such as overheating, warping, or material defects. In this article, we will explore how using a water chiller for cooling can significantly improve the yield… Continue reading How to Improve the Yield Rate of Injection Molded Parts by Cooling with a water chiller
Other auxiliary equipment is also needed to work to ensure a higher yield rate in the production of plastic parts, in addition to using high-efficiency injection molding machines. Injection molding machines generate very high temperatures when working, especially hydraulic injection molding machines, so in addition to mould temperature controllers, a water chiller is also needed… Continue reading How to improve the yield of injection molded parts by using a water chiller?
