Responding to the Call for Industry 4.0: Advancing Intelligent Manufacturing in Injection Molding Workshops

Injection molding production lines have always been a crucial process in the industrial production sector. However, traditional injection molding lines face challenges in production efficiency, product quality, and material waste. Modern centralized supply systems for water, electricity, and gas offer significant advantages in optimizing these traditional production lines.

How to Achieve an Intelligent Injection Molding Factory?

The level of automation and management in a workshop plays a pivotal role in enhancing production efficiency, precise cost control, and ensuring production safety. To achieve these goals, many injection molding enterprises consider, from the outset, how to plan their workshops to attain higher levels of automation and practicality.

In this regard, centralized supply systems for water, electricity, and gas, along with VOC exhaust, play a critical role. These systems not only ensure a constant temperature and pressure for water, electricity, and gas supply within the workshop but also significantly enhance automation through fully automated supply systems and centralized control of material handling equipment such as dehumidification dryers and mixers. This leads to increased production efficiency, reduced costs, and ensured production safety.

Components of the Intelligent Water, Electricity, and Gas Supply System
Intelligent Water Supply System
  1. The intelligent water supply system uses PLC programming and constant pressure frequency conversion technology for zoned intelligent delivery, offering high precision and stable operation while saving 25% of energy.
  2. Pressure sensors and automatic pressure control valves allow for automated control, enabling flexible supply methods such as one pump for multiple zones or multiple pumps for one zone.
  3. It employs the principle of filtering water pools and square cooling towers, ensuring clean water with suitable temperatures. Stainless steel water tanks provide strong corrosion resistance, durability, easy installation, and convenient cleaning.

Intelligent Power Supply System

The intelligent power supply system uses smart meters and electric cabinets to monitor electricity usage in all areas in real time. This facilitates management by allowing easy viewing of the electricity consumption of individual machines or the entire workshop. It supports cloud-based digital management, automatically generating and storing electricity usage data tables.

Intelligent Gas Supply System

The entire gas supply pipeline system uses aluminum alloy and professional quick-install valves, ensuring no pressure loss over long distances. It achieves one-to-one connections with injection molding machines, maximizing gas utilization and saving costs.

The pipeline design of the entire intelligent water, electricity, and gas supply system follows an overhead model, integrating pipe routing neatly. The integrated support structure combines VOC, cold water, chilled water, compressed air, cable ducts, supply lines, and vacuum pipes, layered and spaced efficiently for solid and stable installation. The whole plant layout is rational, orderly, simple, and aesthetically pleasing.
