Technical Moulding

High-precision solutions for the production of complex plastic components

Technical moulding requires injection moulding machines capable of ensuring maximum precision, process stability and tolerance control, even in the production of complex components.

Thanks to the IT HES servo-hydraulic series and the Flower full-electric series, Ripress can support the production of technical components with high quality standards and competitive production costs.

FAQ – Frequently asked questions about injection moulding machines for technical moulding

How is repeatability controlled in technical moulding?

Repeatability is achieved through closed-loop control of process parameters and the use of measuring systems such as position and pressure transducers. Machine stability and movement precision are essential for maintaining consistent results.

What defects can result from suboptimal control of the technical moulding process?

Incorrect process control can cause defects such as uneven shrinkage, deformation (warpage), dimensional variations, internal stresses or incomplete filling. These issues directly affect the quality and functionality of the component.

How does the screw/barrel configuration affect the technical moulding process?

The choice of screw and barrel affects material plasticisation, flow stability and cycle repeatability. An unsuitable configuration can cause process instability and variations in the characteristics of the part.

How do servo-hydraulic and electric technologies improve process control?

Servo-hydraulic and electric solutions enable more precise and dynamic control of pressure and speed, reducing variations from one cycle to the next. This makes it possible to maintain tight tolerances and consistent quality even during extended production runs.

Injection moulding machines for technical applications

Custom design

In technical moulding, the machine configuration must be defined according to the characteristics of the component, the materials used and the required tolerances.

Ripress develops custom solutions by working on:

injection unit configuration
selection of the screw and barrel according to the material
control of pressure, speed and injection profiles
integration of sensors and measuring systems

The aim is to ensure process stability, repeatability of production cycles and precise control of variables, which are essential for producing technical components with tight tolerances and consistent quality over time.
