Compression Moulding Presses - Benefits

Santec's compression molding presses have the ability to mold large and intricate parts. Moreover, their operation are low in cost as compared to other makes as they are energy efficient and they produce relatively less waste. Contrary to popular belief, Santec's compression molding presses often provides excellent product consistency with no knit lines. They are also very much suitable for ultra-large basic shape produced in size beyond the capacity of extrusion techniques. Moreover, these presses can be used to process a host of materials. Some of the other benefits of these compression moulding presses are:

Noiseless Operation
The power pack unit of these hydraulic compression moulding presses is assembled with high quality valves & other components. This ensures noiseless operations of these machines.

Superior Designing
The presses are designed as per BIS guidelines. Only standard seals and bronze bushes with lubrication arrangement are used in heavy duty cylinders.

Precise Assembly
The precisely honed seamless tubes made of carbon steel are assembled with hard chrome plated piston rod. Sealing elements conform to EN-9 standard and are imported from Korea & Japan.

Easy Maintenance
Manifold block mounted valves minimize piping, which ultimately ensure no leakage. It further assists in the easy replacement of parts and comfortable maintenance.

PLC Control
With the help of PLC, several functions can be controlled to desired specifics. For example, number of breathings, duration for breathing, curing time, temperature of platens, temperature variation range, pressure etc. may be programmed through PLC.

Controlled Curing
If pressure drops below certain value during the curing period, the electric motor stop automatically. This ensures less strain to the hydraulic system, which ultimately saves electricity.

Immediate Mould Opening
While ensuring the safety of the moulded parts, smooth opening of moulds occurs right after the curing period.

Rigid Frame
Ultrasonically tested plates of heavy thickness are used to make the frame. This provides rigidity and capability for frequent and fast operations.

Precisely Grinded Platens
All platens have superior accuracy, as they are precisely grinded up to 0.01 to 0.02 mm parallel accuracy. The platens have T-slots and tapped holes with provision of heating & cooling as per DIN standards.

Precise Machining
Precise machining of the structural members is done to achieve parallel position between platen & bed and exact perpendicular position between moving platen and bed.
