The invention relates to a process for manufacturing injection moulded objects of thermoplastic material by injecting molten thermoplastic material into a mould from at least two distinct injection points whereas the flows of molten material from each injection point each fill part of the mould and flow together to fill the entire mould while still in molten state, wherein objects having a size of more than 80 cm along each of its three dimensional axes are produced by providing at least two distinct injection points at opposite sides of the mould. The invention also relates to injection moulding equipment for the manufacture of moulded objects of thermoplastic material, comprising at least two distinct injection points provided at opposite sides of a single mould assembly. The invention further also relates to threedimensional moulded objects of thermoplastic material having a size of more than 80 cm along each of its threedimensional axes.
A process for manufacturing injection molded objects of thermoplastic material composing injecting molten thermoplastic material into a mold from plural positions on the mold, allowing plural flows of molten plastic through the mold, the flows flowing in opposite directions from three dimensional axes of the mold from injection points in one plane along two dimensional axes of the mold, and from at least one further injection point along a third dimensional axis perpendicular to the one plane, for filling a volume of the mold, wherein the flows of molten material from each injection point each fill a part of the mold by flowing together to fill the mold entirely while the thermoplastic material is still in a molten state.
A process for manufacturing injection molded objects of thermoplastic material composing injecting molten thermoplastic material into a mold from plural positions on the mold having plural separate flows of molten plastic flowing in opposite directions from three dimensions of the mold for filling a volume of the mold, wherein each flow of the molten thermoplastic material fills part of the mold and the molten thermoplastic material from all of the injection positions flow together to fill the entire mold while the material is entirely in a molten state, and wherein the molded objects have at least one dimension of more than 80 cm.
A process for manufacturing injection molded objects of thermoplastic material composing injecting molten thermoplastic material under low pressure into a mold from plural positions on the mold having plural separate flows of molten plastic flowing in opposite directions from three dimensions of the mold for filling a volume of the mold wherein each flow of the molten thermoplastic material fills part of the mold and the molten thermoplastic material from all of the injection positions flow together to fill the entire mold while the material is entirely in a molten state, wherein the molded objects have at least one dimension of more than 60 cm.
A process for manufacturing injection molded objects of thermoplastic material comprising injecting molten thermoplastic material into a mold from at least three distinct injection points at opposite sides of the mold wherein each flow of the molten thermoplastic material fills part of the mold and the molten thermoplastic material from all of the injection positions flow together to fill the entire mold while the material is entirely in a molten state, wherein the injecting comprises injecting under high pressure for obtaining molded objects having a size of more than 80 cm along each of three dimensional axes or injecting under low pressure for obtaining objects having a size of more than 60 cm along each of three dimensional axes, and wherein the material flows through two infection points in one plane along two dimensional axes of the mold, and at least one further injection point along a third dimensional axis of the mold perpendicular to said plane.
