Braunform
At this year´s FAKUMA, Braunform presents itself with the slogan “Welcome to our living room” and welcomes interested visitors on a 50 m sq booth in a friendly atmosphere.
One focus at the booth number 5207 in Hall A5 is, besides all other Braunform techniques and branches, the specific designed Braunform MED mould standard for clean room represented by modular inserts of a 96-cav. injection mould for a Pen Hub (needle holder). During the exhibition period, the corresponding high cavity injection mold with a cycle time of 3,9 seconds will be exhibited at the booth of ENGEL on a fully electric ENGEL e-motion 220t.
The high cavitation injection mould processes the article in a highly automated manufacturing cell under constant visual monitoring. With cores with a diameter of only 0.3mm and 0.5mm the mould is designed according to the latest state of the art. Special attention in the development of the mould was placed on the modular design i.e. the modules are individually centred and (de)mounted externally accessible. Furthermore, the mould cooling is developed to achieve shortest cycle times, amongst others with vacuum brazing. For the implementation of the complete project the automation specialist Hekuma has developed the high-speed extraction with an acceleration of up to 17G and a camera surveillance system for automatically sorting out rejected articles in case of breaking cores in the mould. Also involved in the realization of the injection mould are the mould shop partners Meusburger, HEITEC and Listemann.
