Definitions
- Hot runner nozzles are used in the production of molded parts from thermoplastic molding compositions by means of injection molding. Hot runner nozzles serve to freeze the melt of the thermoplastic molding compound
- the nozzle Inject cavity of the mold.
- the nozzle can be heated by means of electrical heating elements
- Hot runner nozzles can be designed with or without a shut-off needle. Nozzles with a shut-off needle serve to close the mold cavity at the end of the injection process. When the tool is opened, no further melt of the thermoplastic can escape from the hot runner nozzle. Locking needles also make it possible to produce molded parts that have a smooth surface at the injection point. A smooth surface at the injection point can be an essential quality feature of corresponding molded parts.
- Known hot runner nozzles with locking needles as described in DE 42 30 758 and EP 0 765 728, essentially consist of a nozzle housing which is surrounded by electrical heating elements and surrounds a melt channel, one
- Nozzle mouthpiece that can be closed by a locking needle and a needle drive.
- Known hot runner nozzles use hydraulic or pneumatic cylinders in order to be able to move the needle either directly or via a lever and to open or close the closure.
- the hot molding compound flows along the open needle in the hot runner nozzle. This is heated up. After the needle has closed, it forms a hot point, which promotes sticking of the molding compound. Over the contact surface of the shut-off needle The cooled tip of the mold is then cooled again.
- a material with high thermal conductivity is usually used to manufacture the needles.
- Known hot runner nozzles with sealing needles made of steel have several disadvantages. Locking pins made of steel are subject to wear when the thermoplastic molding compositions contain solid fillers, e.g. contain abrasive powder or mineral fibers. With sealing pins made of steel, the molding compound can stick to needle gates with large cross-sections. Adhesion of the molding compound then leads to unevenness in the area of the molding in the region of the injection point, which reduces the quality, when the mold is opened and the molding is removed.
- the ceramic tip is preferably produced by shrinking the metal needle shaft onto a ceramic mandrel at the opposite end of the ceramic closure needle.
- the sealing needle or needle tip made of ceramic preferably consists of densely sintered and largely pore-free ceramic material with a thermal conductivity of at most 7 W / m * K at 100 ° C, preferably at most 3 W / m * K at 100 ° C. Examples of suitable ceramic materials are zirconium oxide, porcelain,
- Sintered zirconium oxide has a thermal conductivity in the range of 2 to 2.5 W / m * K.
- Fig. 3 a a needle with a ceramic tip
- FIG. 4 An injection molding tool for producing a molded part weighing approximately 120 g was built as shown in FIG. 4 with a hot runner nozzle.
- the hot runner nozzle 1 was provided with a ceramic sealing needle 6 (see FIGS. 1 and 4).
- the hot runner nozzle 1 guides the injection molding compound via the channel 4, through the electrically heated steel blocks 3 and 3a centrally to the bottom of the molded part 11.
- the needles 2 and 6 are opened by the laterally arranged cylinder 5 and the bars 9 with compressed air and closed.
- a separately cooled prechamber 12 is arranged around the hot runner nozzle.
- the diameter of the closure needle tip 13 was 6 mm.
