Loose cavity inner undercut release method in injection Molding

one way to release the undercut is to loose cavity, the opposite of loose cores, loose inner cavity is used to remove the undercut in the cavity area, note the image below for more details,

1 = top plate
2 = runner stripper plate
3 = cavity plate
4 = core plate
5 = locking block for loose cavity
6 = angular pin for loose cavity system
7 = loose insert cavity

some designers also say that with the inner mold cavity slider, whatever his name is, in essence, functions and works the same way. when the first opening between the top runner stripper plate (2) with the cavity plate (3) top plate will pull locking block (5) together with the angular pin (6), aided by the spring on the insert cavity, this movement causes the loose insert cavity to move straight straight to the angular movement of the pin, as a result of friction between the angular pin with a hole in the loose insert cavity.

when construction is used, ie if your product has undercut formation on a position in the cavity region, angular corners and locking block commonly used ranged from 8 to 20 degrees, above the angle can cause angular cartilage pin was broken, because the force that fought too large.
Another thing to note is the stroke, you must ensure that the stroke of movement of loose cores must be secure, which is about the length undercut products coupled with the 5-10 mm.

Loose core for ejecting undercut at injection mold

Picture above shows the loose core, or often also called slope ejectors or inclined pin, loose cores is one method to overcome the undercut on the product, particularly undercut the core position facing into the bottom (towards the sprue bush-center of mold) that undercut it can not be made simply by using slider method, part of the loose core complete with mold base include:

1. Top clamping Plate
2. stripper plate
3. cavity plate
4. core plate
6. support plate
7. top ejector plate
8. bottom ejector plate
9. bottom clamping plate
10. loose core rod
11. loose slide unit
12. bushing

for more details look at the picture below, which shows the current position of loose cores prior to the occurrence of loose core ejecting position after ejecting process, shortly after the mold is closed and the injection process, loose cores in the closed position (note the closed mold), after the injection process is complete done, at the push of ejector rod, ejector plate both upper and lower parts helped push out through the ejector, while the loose-core because it has a certain slope (generally 8-15) when driven will move slowly into center with the aid of friction on inclined leader pin bushings, so the position Loose cores are separated from the undercut product (mold opened)

 

Slide the unit mounted on the ejector plate is always on the top or at the bottom, and the main mover of the loose core are ejector rod simultaneously with the process of ejecting, points to consider in designing the loose core is strokes and angles used, too little angle of it can reduce the occurrence of abrasion (wear) but required a long stroke.

If angle is too large can cause the inclined pin (loose core) broken because of the occurrence of high abrasion, but required a shorter stroke. The angle that is used is usually between 8-15 0, while the stroke must be exceeded 5 mm or more to keep the loose core is certain regardless of the undercut in the product.

collapsible core for demolding/ejection system of internal screw undercut

one common way used in the ejection system for an internal screw is used collabsible undercut core, which requires collabsible core product generally has the undercut on the inside, for example an internal screw, pipe fittings, elbow pipe, use collabsibe core is not only on the core course , undercut the slider is also often used collabsible cores.
video below gives a simple explanation of how Collapsible cores working

Main Component
The three units are a Collapsible Core, center pin, and a positive collapse sleeve.

cenTer pin
The Center Pin serves to expand the segments of the Collapsible Core to their molding position and holds them at this diameter. A hole is provided inside the pin for cooling. The center pin is manufactured of a high alloy Type D-6 steel hardened to 60 to 65 Rockwell C or use SKH 51, SKD 11. Refer to the pin grinding instructions for machining directions. In use the pin must incorporate two design features. The pin must protrude beyond the face of the collapsing core segments by certain amounts. This protrusion keeps material from flowing under the face of the collapsing segments to ensure they properly collapse. A radius must be applied to the outside corner at the front of the center pin. The sharp edge resulting from cutting the pin to length will gall and subsequently destroy the inside surfaces of the collapsing core segments
collapsible core
The Collapsible Core is manufactured from A.I.S.I. Type A-2 steel hardened to 51 to 57 Rockwell C. It is designed to collapse independently when the center pin is withdrawn. The fit between segments is controlled to permit flash free molding. The location of the core on its pin is critical. The distance between the back of the core flange and the front of the center pin flange (Head Space) is critical and must be maintained.
If the Head Space (1.938 ±.005 on a CC 202 PC) is not maintained, unsatisfactory operation will result, or the core may be permanently damaged.
posiTive collapse sleeve
The Positive Collapse Sleeve (PC sleeve) is designed to function when the Collapsible Core fails to collapse independently upon withdrawal of the center pin. In normal operation, the PC sleeve is not functioning. It is essential to have such a unit for maximum safety and reliability in automatic and semi-automatic operation. Under no circumstances should a mold be placed into automatic operation without the use of the PC sleeve.
