Essential component of the injection unit. Its main function is to contain, melt, and homogenize the material, as well as dose the amount of plastic to be injected into the mold.
- Hydraulic Pressure (Hpsi)Machinery
In hydraulic machines, it is the force generated by fluids under pressure, used to actuate the main movements and systems of the machine.
- Injection PressureProcess
Force applied to push molten plastic through the screw into the mold cavity, ensuring uniform distribution of the material.
- Intensification RatioProcess
Difference between the hydraulic pressure generated by the injection piston and the pressure generated in the barrel, interpreted as Ppsi.
