Super-precise core pulling units with µm accuracy
At Fakuma 2024, Servomold, specialist for injection moulds, will be presenting a new generation of servo-electric core puller units of the SLY type at stand A2-2111 in hall A2. These use ball screw drives to position slides and cores with µm accuracy. The slide contains precision bores with fine centring for universal slides. A special feature is the relocation of the linear guides to the outside, which enables compact mould dimensions and reduced maintenance requirements.
Typical applications for these linear systems can be found in medical technology systems such as auto-injectors. All versions are suitable for new and existing moulds and can be efficiently electrified for retrofits. Depending on the model, the stroke of the units is between 75 mm and 150 mm, with a standard thrust of 6 kN, expandable to 12 kN.
The option of mounting different sliders ensures flexibility. Multi-stage movements also allow the demoulding process to be adapted. Optional motor brakes safeguard the system in the event of power failures.
Like the linear drives already presented in 2023, the new SLY units are compact alternatives to hydraulic and pneumatic cylinders. They are controlled via the Servo MoldControl (SMC), which can control up to eight servo drives.
Thomas Meister, Managing Director of Servomold, emphasises: ‘With the servo-electric drive of the SLY units and the minimal lubrication, we meet high requirements for precision and cleanroom suitability. We are planning to expand our business in the growing medical technology market.’
At Fakuma 2024, Servomold will also be showcasing its broad portfolio of servo system components, including unscrewing units, servo drive systems and space-saving index plate turners.
