The processing of LSR ( Liquid Silicone Rubber) with injection moulding :
Aspects of very economic LSR part production with LIM (Liquid Injection Moulding) : - fully automatic process on slithly modified thermoplast- injection moulding machines - very short cycle times - highest part quality without any rework - wasteless production with cold runner systems - resource- and cost saving - many possible combinations with other materials like thermo- or duroplast or many metals in one final part
The process „Liquid Injection Moulding (LIM)“ LSR-parts are being made with heatetd precision moulds on sligthly modified thermoplast- injection moulding machines. After the 2 Componets (A+B) Have been prepared for injection by the mixing and dosing machine they are pumped into the injection unit of the IM machine. The material than gets injected into the mould trough special cold runner systems (-decks) into the heatetd mould. Here the LSR paste cures in just a few seconds at temperatures of 140°C-220°C to a rubber like consitency. The demoulding of the parts is done by mechanical ejectors, pressured air and / or linear handling systems or brushes.
