I worked on an injection molding machine and the plastic was melted over 4 different elements and in a longer nozzle and screw and all the elements were independently temperature controlled. It was hydraulically controlled and the molds went up and down with no guide bars in the way of operating it. On that machine was no need for a hopper but there was a motor to suck up the plastic from the bag it came in. The molds had an option for cooling going through them "just a garden hose" and you needed to use both hands to start it for safety. And the plastic was preheated in the nozzle before melting.
Hmm very interesting. I'm going to refine the design with a longer screw I think. Sadly I think I'm stuck with electric actuation and a hopper though. I wonder if I could implement cooling...
I’m surprised nobody has yet mentioned “I put a handle on it so I can take it to parties and stuff.” You are incredibly quotable, and it adds a nice touch to your very informative videos. Subscribed and waiting in anticipation...
Oh gosh, I always have a dozen projects in various completion states at any given moment in time. Nice work! I'm a nurse now but was at an engineering school research unit for many years. Vitamin D3 and Vitamin C for healing the bone and tissue trauma recovery.
Alright thank you the dog seems good after the accident, thank you for the share, remembering our first trip to have made our injection molded case for our piezo buzzer detection unit many years ago now. You get that arm better, never broke anything but hear it hurts. Lance & Patrick.
Thanks guys! My arm is better now. They took the cast off after 1 week because apparently that makes it heal faster It really did, but everything hurt like hell for awhile so it slowed me down!
Good luck with your upcoming surgery. I've had keratoconus for going on 40 years. Not any of my business, but I was advised that laser surgery wasn't recommended since it thins out the cornea. Btw, I wear Scleral Lenses, they really have helped my keratoconus.
Thanks for the heads up. The surgery is a new one I guess, they said it previously couldn't be treated with lasers. Nice to know about scleral lenses, I may still have to get those
It seems that this project is almost dead after so long. The first thing you need to consider is that the entire process is a heat pump. Heat in equals heat out. Once the barrel heaters have melted the material, the dynamic action of the screw converts the mechanical energy into thermal energy. It appears that your home made screw has no compression zone at the tip. At that point, if you have insulation, the barrel heaters should by running a duty cycle around 30% with the machine cycling. You need a mould temperature controller, firstly to bring the mould up to the correct operating temperature, then to remove the process heat which will allow the moulded part to reach its safe demoulding temperature. The injection unit needs lots of power, your small parts should be filling in less than a second. Then you need to switch your filling unit to a packing phase, which will maintain a constant pressure while the moulding cools, contracts, and shrinks. I recommend the Arburg reference book as a primer, I have used that over the years teaching the subject. good luck
What about Phenolic/bakelite for the heat break gasket area? It's used for that purpose on intake manifolds in performance automotive applications to limit heat soak.
to ptoduce a tapered thread on a manual lathe you use the taper attachment with the screw cutting gearbox to make your auger cut a tapered thread and machine off the od to a cylinder.
I was going to say - I'd have no problem making this on a manual lathe. The coding might be difficult, so I second Elanman on having one of the machinists cut this on a manual lathe ^^
I do agree the easiest way is to get someone else to do it on a manual lathe but I meant to say that it is possible to define a tapered threading opperation on your machining centre I think it is G76 with parameter i to define the taper. then reduce the OD to a cylinder.
Plot twist: I don't have a taper attachment, though the winning plan so far is to use the threading gearbox and just "wing" the taper. I think it will be okay with the right grind
Looks like a awesome design. I got the controller figured out... 3D printer setup Marlin and RAMPS board... with the LCD controller like 40 bucks total. I use Gcode to program it. Still unfinished as have issues with molds, and ejection pins. Also the compression molder and hydraulic log splitter injection molder have taken up time
One thing you may want to do is make the mold holding plates similar to a fixture plate for a cnc mill one example sauders machine works fixture plates and use clamps similar to a cnc mill at my work we have injection molding machines with this kind of setup for holding the two half of the mold so all you do is lineup the injection port and clamp it down
I have also had my eye on Andrey Korotkov's machines for a diy build. It appears to inject only with the back pressure that would be produced with the screw and not have any kind of ram or ball screw for the shot. Any idea if this is the case or what would be the pitfalls of such a system?
Can you use the same motor for the extruder and the mold? ie both Nema 34 or Nema 23. Why did you use different motor? Because the design influence you took both are using same motor if I'm correct?
Can you get enough injection pressure using only the rotation of the screw? I think most machines use the screw for melting the plastic evenly and then the injection pressure is created by pushing the screw into the barrel.
That's the couple-hundred-dollar question right now. I've seen some micro machines use just the screw, so I'm banking on it being okay for low pressure molds. I'm also working on a plunger-style design just in case.
I started building a machine like this after watching all the microplast videos. I gave up after testing my auger with a hand drill and watching the plastic just spin in circles. It didn’t really inject and certainly not with any pressure to fill a mold. I’m really curious to see if you can get plastic to squirt out the nozzle. All the rest can be figured out
Dont give up. Go to robotdigg.com and get a real plastic screw and barrel. High tolerance screw/ barrel fit. Plastic screw will make all of the difference in your success
Have you thought of using air-crete to machine your hot parts from? Looking into the thermal resistance and ease of machinability very cheap to make too.
Looks like a proper build. I know the feeling with projects. I have two right now that are at 90% but just can't seem to make it across the finish line.
It's just the screw - it's not backdriveable, so it will at least stay nominally closed, but we'll have to see how it performs. A separate lock is a good idea.
@@TabletopMachineShop A toggle lock mechanism will increase your clamping force A LOT. While at the same time keep the travel speed up in the rest of the travel for opening the mold big enough. And you can still use the screw to drive the toggle lock mechanism. It is a simple but still very capable solution.
hello! excellent work! can you help us to make one like it only l need the dimension of parts for this machine?, can you tell us how much it cost you to make it?... can you make a DIY? thanks for your answer! greetings from egypt
Yeah I did that for 4th axis on a mill, but the lathe has no C axis, so it really needs a Z-X series of commands which I couldn't figure out. Maybe it's a hand coding job.
@Tabletop Machine Shop, Are there plans available for this machine? I run a makerspace for afterschool kids and this is something they would LOVE to make and assemble!
olá , sou brasileiro ...e tenho uma variedade de peças que queria fazer em uma maquina como esta... como faço pra adquirir uma dessa.....está disponivel para vendar?
I've been dreaming of making one of these machines for ages, my big bottleneck is finding the right screw for the task... will you make those available when finished? or maybe you have any advice on finding them for that size? all I've ever found is for bigger machines and hate the idea of using a drill bit for that ...(auger) thanks for the nice project, I'll eagerly follow it and buy the plans if ever available!
Thanks! I'm a bit worried about the screw as well, but hopefully I can figure something out in the short term for the follow up video. One thing I'm considering is getting it 3D printed in metal and then just polishing it up, in which case I could definitely make the files available.
these IM machines can be a simple or as complex/fancy as you wanna make it.. Have you considered using a nozzle valve like the APSX guys? and... I don't think your baby will have too much injection pressure if it's screw-based purely...?
Yeah someone else suggested that. I'll look into it. I've heard of them, hopefully they make really small ones. A band heater would take up a lot less space.
Hi, you are doing a great job man, great channel you have, very informative. actually i am a student and my project is fabrication of table top injection molding machine. Can you please tell me what kind of stepper motors (model number) did you use in this project and also any recommendation of cheaper stepper motor models that can be used for clamping and extrusion. it would be a great help
Curious that we share the same interests and now he have the same job. Single drive extruders can have a tendency to just spin the mixture and not extrude anything. However, they are commonly used. I imagine surface finish be key. You may need to have the screw PTFE (or something that can handle the heat better) coated so that the mix doesn’t stick to it. Also there are only four screws holding in that extruder. Either a piece of arm bone broke off and made it to your brain, or you’ve slowly come to terms with your fastener addiction... P.S finish the mini lathe or I’ll leave comments with empty threats.
You actually want the mixture to stick to the screw! It's the barrel wall that you want it to slip at. This is why you typically have to cool the screw if you're running The heaters for a long time.
Empty threats? You wouldn't dare! I'm going to try to polish everything up nicely so things don't stick too much -- hopefully that's enough. Coating is a bit outside my budget :P. My fastener addiction is only going to get worse. The Haas can rigid tap haha. Thanks for commenting!
I have a question I want to model on of these for fun, going into mechanical Engineering, and I'm wondering what flange bearing that us you're using for the screw. It looks custom but I wanted to ask if it was pre-made. I like the idea and design on would be interesting.
Are you sure your injection screw is long enough? It's pretty short and the heating element is awfully close to the hopper entry point. I'm afraid you are going to be having heat creep into the hopper connection and melt occuring there. In which case you'd have a clogging problem.
Are you callin' my injection screw short? I'm planning on connecting the hopper with some kind of heat insulating or actively cooled widget to prevent that. You're right though, the heat will spread quickly and the plastic doesn't have much time to melt. A longer screw is under consideration :P
You who may. It is possible that you manufacture one or more machines that I am watching the video of, just tell me where I can contact you so that you can send us a quote for them. Thank you. Gustav.
Starting projects is definitely the easiest part... now where did I leave off on those other 50 projects 🤔 Congrats on the new position, and good to hear you are on the mend after that fall.
@@TabletopMachineShop I blame analysis paralysis. I run out of time/stuff to finish in a day then get caught up in analyzing what to do next or how to do it. That or something else takes priority and the project gets put on hold until it becomes important enough to complete.
