How do I know if channels are clean? - Intelligent cleaning modes
Device performance analysis
A separate, dedicated feed pump for every channel ensures greater efficiency and dynamics of cleaning. Many cooling channel cleaning systems on the market are equipped with a single feed pump. Such a solution creates many inconveniences that should be kept in mind when choosing a machine for channel maintenance.
Device efficiency – the more cleaning sections the device has, the more channels we will be able to connect to it at the same time, maintaining an independent and repeatable dynamics of the cleaning process.
Comparison of cleaning capacity of different machines
Measurement of the flow rate – In the case of a single-section device to which the channels are connected in series, the performed flow measurement will not inform the user about the actual flow improvement for individual circuits, but only about the sum of flow rates, which can be compared ‘before and after’ the process. The user will not be able to tell what increases in flow rate values were achieved and whether all channels were actually cleaned to the same degree.
Leakage detection – The bridging of the system has one more, very significant disadvantage. In the event of a leakage, we are often unable to precisely determine which channel has caused it. When we connect the channels individually, finding the cause of the leak is much easier.
Return on investment
Every year, companies around the world unknowingly lose hundreds of thousands of Euros due to the gradual decline in cooling efficiency in their tools and machines. Lower mold efficiency, longer cycle time due necessity of counteracting dimensional deviations of plastic parts, longer mold downtimes, maintenance and servicing – all these factors increase operating costs and translate into a decrease in company profits. The source of these problems originates not only in the quality of the cooling water, but also in the processing temperatures, which translate into precipitation and gradual deposition of deposits and rust inside cooling channels of molds as well as other heat exchangers.
Annual savings for 1 injection molding machine (with cycle time reduction of 1 sec. for 30 sec. cycle time)
Mold safety
METHODOLOGY: in accordance with PN-76/H-04602 (PN-EN ISO 11463:2010). Material samples are immersed in 10% solution of DS1 cleaning agent heated up to 50°C, at atmospheric pressure. All samples have surface area = 40 cm². Weight loss was measured in 1h cycles for 5 hours, then the sampes were left in the solution in ambient temperature and their weight loss was measured after 24h.
