2-1.
As shown on the below, HWC Clamping System consists of
mainly 4 kinds of parts, hwc-Unit (including clamping
cylinder), Up-Down moving cylinder, Jack screw & nut.
The other parts, such as platen, tie-rod, ejector etc.,
are same or similar to the conventional toggle or direct
pressure type injection molding machines.
HWC
device moving cylinder can be installed at various direction
and location, upper or lower or side, according to the available
space to be installed at, or the clamping forces.
2-2.
At the position of the mold open, HWC moves down by the cylinder
(4) and the center hole of the rear platen (10 is open, so
that Jack screw with the mold can be backward.
2-3.
When the mold is closed by the forwarded mold moving platen
(2) with the mold moving cylinder(3), the gap between the
end of Jack screw(6) and the front platen of HWC unit is kept
about 1mm, so that HWC unit can pass between the fixed panel
and Jack screw and reaches to the clamp position.
2-4.
At the clamping postition HWC center wedge starts to move
up, which push the front wedge to the end of Jack screw and
the mold for few mm. The force created within few mm distance
and transferred to Jack screw and the mold, is a strong clamping
force that the machine requires for the injection.
