A.2/ WHAT IS A BABYPLAST 6/10P AND WHAT CAN IT DO?

The BABYPLAST 6/10P injection moulding machine is the result of thirty years experience working in specific fields of plastic injection moulding, mould design and construction. Research and development, on the machine, began more than ten years ago, in response to an important area of demand: -SMALL SERIES PRODUCTION. -PROTOTYPE DEVELOPMENT. -LOW COST OF MOULDS.. -LABORATORY TESTS. -TECHNICAL TRAINING. BABYPLAST 6/10P is the ideal solution for producing small plastic-moulded parts, without using multiple cavity moulds. This is particularly useful when developing prototypes or producing small series of parts. Owing to the low cost of the moulds used in our machines, in-depth experiments can be carried out before the final mould for large series production is built. As a result, both small and medium series can be produced easily, and COMPLETELY AUTONOMOUSLY. Thank you for the trust you have placed in Babyplast. We are confident that your BABYPLAST 6/10P machine, will help fulfil your application expectations. When handling and processing any injection moulding materials, customers must follow the material manufacturer's instructions with great care.

C.7/ STARTING THE MACHINE
The machine is now ready to be started. Check that it has been filled with oil to the correct level, and that it is connected to the mains correctly.After switching on at the main switch, the SAFETY GUARD CHECK must be carried out In order to continue. Before being able to start the motor, the safety guards must be opened and closed. If a fault is detected with any of the guard switches, it will not be possible to start the machine. Carry out the following procedures before starting the injection process: FIRST: Install the mould and set the mould closed position, following the instructions in section D1.6/ SETTING THE MOULD CLOSED POSITION. SECOND: Set the plastification temperature according to the specifications indicated by the manufacturer of the material to be injected. Set the injection chamber temperature to approximately 5/10 C below the plastification temperature parag. D.1.7a TEMPERATURE SETTINGS (page D0090) WARNING: Plastic material, which was used for tests during the manufacturing process, will be found in the INJECTION UNIT. MAKE SURE that this material is compatible with the temperatures at which the machine is to be programmed. If the user is not experienced in the transformation of thermoplastic materials, it is advisable to begin with a material with a wide temperature range, such as POLYPROPYLENE, POLYSTYRENE, POLYETHYLENE ABS,etc.so as to obtain best results right from the start. THIRD: Set the shot size based on the volume of the part, the cooling time between 2 and 4 seconds, the 1st injection pressure at approx. 50/60 bar and a time for the 1st injection pressure depending on the volume of the part to produce and the density of the material used (start with 1.5 - 3 seconds for example). Decompression should be set between 1 and 2 mm Parag. D.1.7b4 INJECTION SETTINGS (page D-0140) FOURTH: Set sprue break time, if required, from 0.1 to 0.2 secs. see INJECTION CARRIAGE TIME parag. D1.7b1 (page D-0110). Set the opening stroke depending on the size of the part, see parag. D1.7b5 (page D-0150) and finally, set the ejection time from 0.2 to 0.7 secs. with 2 or 3 ejector strokes. parag. D.1.7b3 (page D-0130). FIFTH Close the material chute on the hopper and load the hopper with material as required. When the various, previously set, temperatures have been reached, open the material chute on the hopper and purge the machine according to section D.2.3 PURGE page D-0240). The machine is now ready to produce parts. SIXTH Put the machine in semi-automatic mode and make sure that the transparent gate and guards are closed. Press the START key. The machine will proceed to complete one cycle. The nozzle may cool slightly, during the first shots, as it comes into contact with the cold mould. If so, for the first shots only, increase the nozzle temperature by approximately 5 or 10%. If good results have been achieved, repeat this process several times in SEMI-AUTOMATIC mode, adjusting the different machine parameters such as times, temperatures, pressures and material load etc. When in AUTOMATIC mode, make sure that, at the end of the injection cycle, the injection piston reaches a point less than 3 mm (cushion) within 8 cycles, otherwise the machine will go into alarm. To modify settings see parag. D.4c ADVANCED SETTINGS (page D-0380) The parameters quoted in this section are only a guide line, because the various parameters and settings always depend on the material used, the mould construction and the volume of the part etc. WARNING: Some plastic materials maybe inflammable and/or explosive.

The first cycle, after these initial cycles, will be used for reference by the quality control function. If the machine detects a percentage of variation which is more than that allowed, compared to the reference cycle, for a number of cycles greater than that set in line N of cycles for alarm, the machine activates alarm 048 cycle time out of tolerance. OPTIONAL: On request it is possible to have an output which is activated each time a cycle is out of tolerance, and which can be used to activate a PART REJECT device. The machine, in this case, will be able to reject parts produced which are out of tolerance and will stop, in alarm, when the value of N CYCLES FOR ALARM has been reached. ATTENTION! Each time the settings are modified, a new set of initial cycles is run and hence a new reference cycle is obtained.

The value set, will be the toleranceband for the temperature in use. If the operating temperature increases or decreases by a value greater than this set temperature, (i.e. goes out of the tolerance band) the machine goes into alarm Tol. band max error. Manual operation of the injection piston and plastification will not be possible nor will it be possible to enter an automatic cycle until the operating temperatures are within this tolerance band.
The stand-by temperature always depends on the temperatures set in each of the mould setting programmes and when active, the heater zones will be seen in yellow. The standby temp. activates in the following cases: 1.When the heaters are switched on in automatic. 2.When the machine is in alarm for a greater length of time than the time out alarm. 3.When the heaters are switched on manually.
When the heaters are switched on, they will remain at the stand-by temperature for the length of time set for pre-heating time
If the machine is in alarm for a time greater than that set fo time out alarm, the heaters will go into the stand-by mode. After double the length of time, the heaters and motor will be switched off. Touch the field to be modifed, change the value by rotating the dial.
ATTENTION: If the actual temperatures exceed by more than double the value set in Tol. band max. error, the machine will go in alarm 112..116 OVER TEMPERATURE.. - Motor and heaters will be switched off.

F/ MAINTENANCE
All the materials used in the construction of BABYPLAST 6/10P have been studied so that they require minimum maintenance and are easy to replace. OIL: The oil and filters must be kept clean and must be replaced within the recommended periods so that the hydraulic equipment does not wear prematurely. RECOMMENDED PERIODS FOR OIL CHANGE: = 2000 to 5000 HOURS ( acc. to oil type) FILTER: = 1500 HOURS REFRIGERATION UNIT: If treated water is used, so as to avoid calcium deposits from forming, no maintenance is required. If treated water is not used, the system will have to be cleaned depending on calcium level in the water. MOVEABLE PARTS: All the moveable parts, that are subject to friction, are lined with TEFLON, including the mobile platen with the STD bushings, and therefore, apart from the normal cleaning, no maintenance is required. (However, the wear on the bushings ought to be checked regularly). GASKETS: All the gaskets are fitted with bronze reinforced PTFE friction strips, and O-ring seal. Check the that the surfaces correspond before joining. ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT. Inspect the ventilator in the electrnics compartment, particularly in hot weather, keep the unit dry and clean, and make sure the connections are well-maintained. Do not use used parts when replacing elements, especially where FUSES AND TRIACS are concerned. Electrical maintenance should be carried out by qualified personel only. HEATING EQUIPMENT: Seeing as all the heating elements are standard and the thermocouples are independent, they are easy to maintain. If other thermocouples are used,they should be a ground isolated "J"-type to avoid disturbances from electrical noise. NOZZLE: The Nozzle has an armoured heating element which is fixed in place by a cup shaped protecive cover. Keep this assembly as clean as possible and check the condition of wiring regularly for damage etc. INJECTION CHAMBER has two 8 x 80 diameter bulb type 200 W heating elements which need to be checked regularly. Keep this assembly as clean as possible and check the condition of wiring regularly for damage etc. PLASTIFICATION CHAMBER The plastification chamber is heated by a - 230V 1000W 37mm diam. heater band which guarantees an optimal and uniform heat distribution which is essential for technical polymers. Keep this assembly as clean as possible and check the condition of wiring regularly for damage etc.
