Innovative highlight 2: sandwich molding multi-component system
FB-C Series Sandwich Molding Machine, with clamping forces ranging from 100 to 350 tons, features two independent injection units that can be set at different pressures and speeds, creating different pattern variations, suitable for producing products with distinct dual-color layers, mixed colors, and patterns, or single-color molds. This time, the 150-ton FB-150C will be used to automatically produce a one-cavity ABS material smartphone stationery tray with a cycle time of 45 seconds, aiming to present a refined marble-like office stationery texture. This machine is also equipped with a cavity pressure quality monitoring system to monitor peak cavity pressure, ensuring stable viscosity and quality of the melt, with real-time data connection to the iMF 4.0 intelligent manufacturing system for dashboard management.
Innovative highlight 3: household multi-component molding system
CT-R Series All-Electric Two-Component Machine, is the annual masterpiece that combines FCS's two major advantages of "all-electric" and "two-component," complementing each other. The precise injection unit has two or more independent material tubes for simultaneous injection, significantly shortening the molding cycle. The electric turntable speed is effectively increased by 30%-50%, and the positioning system accuracy reaches 0.005°, making the injection molded products more precise and stable.
FCS's multi-component injection machines have set new sales records year after year, with cumulative sales reaching NTD 19.2 billion by the end of 2023. The multi-component system offers six injection types, with up to 29 configuration flexibilities, fully covering mold designs or production lines in various industries for multi-station customization. This year at Taipeiplas, the 230-ton all-electric two-component machine will be used, paired with PP and TPE elastomers, to fully automatically demonstrate the production of a dual-color dual-material folding basket with a molding cycle of 22 seconds. This molding system also features an energy management module, capable of real-time monitoring and data analysis management of energy consumption through a connection to the iMF 4.0 intelligent manufacturing system.
Green innovation, driving towards net-zero, is a challenging but promising goal; through the organic combination of material-saving, energy-saving, and low-carbon molding, FCS can help you achieve a green transformation in injection product manufacturing. Last year, FCS successfully passed the international-level beta-site customer verification with the support of the "Smart Machinery Industry Smart Upgrade Project" promoted by the Industrial Development Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs. With the "Smart Manufacturing Solution for Plastic Injection Molding of Sports Shoe Soles," FCS successfully entered the Nike international supply chain. This experience has given the team more confidence and strength to serve related markets, and as of August this year, nearly 40 injection molding machine orders have been received, all serving the footwear industry's production bases in China, India, Southeast Asia, and other countries.
MuCell microcellular foaming injection molding is not only applied to the lightweight and elasticity requirements of shoe soles but can also be used in food packaging, transportation, electrical components, etc., achieving different levels of dimensional stability, reducing warping, weight reduction, insulation, and noise reduction effects. FCS injection machines paired with MuCell dedicated screws and gas injection equipment have successfully helped customers in various industries achieve solutions. Welcome to visit the FCS booth (J0806) to explore innovative applications and process integrations that improve efficiency and yield, and to discuss the best strategies for responding to the challenges of carbon neutrality in the future, from equipment, process technology, and production management.
