Chinaplas in Shenzen opens its doors again to national and international trade fair visitors from 17th – 20th April after a two-year break. BOY will exhibit two of its injection molding machines in Hall 10 at booth no. D35.
Specially Developed for Micro Single-Cavity Injection Molding
With a footprint of only 1.85 m², the BOY 22 A injection molding machine has a clamping force of 220 kN and is suitable in many areas of application. Three sizes of injection units as well as different screw diameters from 12 – 32 mm offer a versatile range of applications.
In addition to thermoplastics, elastomers, silicones and thermosets can also be easily processed with this tried-and-tested multi-talent. Since its foundation in 1968, BOY has produced more than 25,000 machines in this clamping force class and sold them worldwide.
The BOY XS was specially developed for micro and sprueless single-cavity injection molding. Instead of the conventional piston plasticizing for this machine size, BOY uses screw plasticizing from 8 to 18 mm according to the “first in first out” principle. Especially for small molded parts, a plasticizing unit with a screw diameter of 8 mm ensures shortest dwell times – a major advantage for gentle processing of temperature-sensitive materials.
The highly sophisticated production process with the 8 mm screw requires attention to / compliance with process-relevant injection molding parameters. This process must always be considered in detail from application to application. With 100 kN clamping force, the BOY XS offers users maximum performance on the smallest footprint (0.78 m²).
