Blow molding machines make products by spraying liquid plastic out and using the wind force blowing out of the machine to attach the plastic to a certain shape of mold cavity. Specifically, the plastic is melted and quantitatively extruded in a screw extruder, then molded through a mouth mold, then cooled by wind ring blowing, and finally pulled by a traction machine at a certain speed and wound into rolls by a winding machine.
Blow molding machines can be divided into the following categories:
Extrusion blow molding machine: it is a combination of extruder and blow molding machine and closing mechanism, which consists of extruder and parison die head, blowing device, closing mechanism, parison thickness control system and transmission mechanism. The parison die head is one of the important parts to determine the quality of blow molded products. Extrusion blow molding machine can produce volume range of 2.5ml to 104l hollow products.
Injection blow molding machine: it is a combination of injection molding machine and blow molding mechanism, including plasticizing mechanism, hydraulic system, control electrical and other mechanical parts. Common types are three-station injection blow molding machine and four-station injection blow molding machine, they produce plastic containers of precise size, without secondary processing, but the cost of mold is higher.
Special Structure Blow Molding Machine: It is a blow molding machine that uses sheet, molten material and cold blanks as type blanks to blow mold hollow bodies with special shapes and uses. The structure of the blow molding machine varies due to the different shapes and requirements of the products to be produced.
Touchscreens, as the interactive interface for blow molding machines, offer a number of benefits, especially in terms of improving productivity, simplifying the operating process, and enhancing the user experience. At the same time, in harsh industrial environments, touchscreens require a specific set of properties to ensure stable operation and durability.
The benefits of touchscreens as interactive interfaces for blow molding machines:
1. Increased productivity: Touchscreens provide an intuitive and convenient way to operate, enabling operators to quickly and accurately enter instructions and monitor the production process. This helps to reduce operating time and improve overall productivity.
2. Simplify the operating process: Touch screen interfaces are often designed to be simple and straightforward, allowing operators to get started without complex training. This reduces the skill requirements of the workers and also reduces production failures due to improper operation.
3. Enhanced user experience: Touch screen interfaces provide a wealth of visual feedback and interactive features that enable operators to more intuitively understand the status of equipment and production progress. This helps to improve operator satisfaction and work efficiency.
The performance of the touch screen in harsh industrial environments:
1. High durability: Industrial environments are often characterized by high mechanical vibration, temperature fluctuations, dust and other challenges. Therefore, the touch screen needs to have excellent durability and reliability, and be able to operate stably for a long time under harsh conditions.
2. Wide temperature adaptability: Temperature ranges in industrial scenarios can be extreme, from cold storage to hot factories. The touch screen should have a wide range of temperature adaptability to ensure that it can work properly in a variety of environmental conditions.
3. Dust and waterproof performance: Dust and moisture are commonly present in environments such as factories and workshops. The touch screen should be designed to be dustproof and waterproof to ensure stable operation of the equipment for a long time and reduce the need for maintenance.
4. Chemical corrosion resistance: Some industrial environments may have chemicals, such as acids and alkalis, which may cause damage to the equipment. The touch screen should have the ability to resist chemical corrosion to maintain stable performance.
5. Shock and vibration resistance: In industrial places, equipment may be affected by mechanical shock or vibration. The touch screen should have sufficient shock and vibration resistance to ensure that the equipment is not damaged during operation.
6. high transmittance: industrial environments may exist in strong light conditions, so the touch screen should have a high transmittance rate to ensure that the information is clearly visible in a variety of light conditions.
7. multi-touch function: in order to improve operational efficiency, the touch screen should support multi-touch function, so that the operator can carry out more complex operations.
Touch screen as the interactive interface of the blow molding machine brings many benefits, but in the harsh industrial environment, the touch screen also needs to have a series of specific performance to ensure its stable operation and long-lasting durability. These performance requirements not only increase the reliability and durability of touchscreens, but also improve operator productivity and user experience.
