a “settings profile” by using the buttons on top. To change the profile number, the
plus and minus buttons can be used. The X1 button on top is to change the multiple of
the increase or decrease action. When it is on X10, the parameters change with bigger
steps rather than one by one increment.
TEMPERATURES
Barrel Temperature –
The current and set temperatures of the plastic in the heated barrel.
Mold Temperature –
The current and set temperatures of the mold block.
Minimum Temperature –
The set minimum temperature required to run the injection
machine. If the temperature drops below that threshold, it will wait to reach that
temperature before running.
PRESSURES / FORCES
Injection Pressure –
The current and set pressures that are applied to the plastic
in the
barrel.
Hold Pressure –
The
current and set
holding
pressures that are applied to the plastic
in
the mold
.
Clamp Force –
The current and set forces applied to the
closed mold
when it is
clamped.
TIMES
Holding time –
The time set to keep holding pressure.
Cooling Time –
The
time set to keep plastic in the mold after holding pressure.
Heater Boost –
The time set to keep the heaters at their highest power when the
temperature drops below the minimum temperature set.
Clamp Time –
The time set to move the clamp at its fastest speed towards the mold
before slowing down for clamping. Please start low to not bang the clamp on the mold.
