Key Products/TechnologiesKeyProducts/Technologies
Injection Screws: Essential plasticizing devices responsible for melting, mixing, and conveying plastic pellets to supply homogeneous molten material. Precision manufacturing considering material selection, mechanical design, and molding conditions (melt temperature, metering, speed, back pressure, holding pressure) suitable for various resin properties. High-mixing screws incorporate modified flight shapes to improve pigment dispersion and melt temperature uniformity. PVD coating technology is applied to enhance surface hardness and reduce friction and wear.InjectionScrews:Essentialplasticizingdevicesresponsibleformelting,mixing,andconveyingplasticpelletstosupplyhomogeneousmoltenmaterial.Precisionmanufacturingconsideringmaterialselection,mechanicaldesign,andmoldingconditions(melttemperature,metering,speed,backpressure,holdingpressure)suitableforvariousresinproperties.High-mixingscrewsincorporatemodifiedflightshapestoimprovepigmentdispersionandmelttemperatureuniformity.PVDcoatingtechnologyisappliedtoenhancesurfacehardnessandreducefrictionandwear.
