The pressure holding performance of Servo Energy-Saving Injection Molding Machine is an important link to ensure the quality and production efficiency of injection molded products. In the injection molding process, the pressure holding stage is mainly used to apply a certain pressure to the material after the molten plastic fills the mold cavity to compensate for the volume shrinkage of the material when cooling, so as to ensure the dimensional accuracy and surface quality of the product. The pressure holding performance of the servo energy-saving injection molding machine is efficient and accurate, but its performance is affected by multiple factors.

1. Precise control ability of servo motor
The pressure holding performance of the servo energy-saving injection molding machine depends largely on the control ability of the servo motor. The servo motor can provide real-time feedback and adjust the pressure and speed of the injection molding machine through a closed-loop control system, making the pressure output in the pressure holding stage more accurate. Traditional injection molding machines use quantitative pumps for pressure holding, and the pressure regulation is relatively rough, which may lead to unstable pressure holding. The dynamic response of the servo system can finely adjust the pressure holding pressure according to the process requirements, ensuring that stable pressure is maintained in each pressure holding stage and reducing the dimensional deviation and defects of the product. The high-precision control capability of the servo motor directly determines the efficiency of the pressure holding performance of the injection molding machine.

2. Matching of mold design and pressure holding performance
Mold design is one of the important factors affecting the pressure holding performance of the servo energy-saving injection molding machine. The cooling system, cavity structure and gate design of the mold will directly affect the pressure holding effect. During the pressure holding stage, the material cooling shrinkage speed in the cavity and the distribution of the pressure holding pressure need to be highly matched, otherwise it is easy to cause surface depression or internal voids on the product. Especially for thick-walled products, the mold cooling speed is slow, and the pressure holding time and pressure need to be accurately set to prevent the plastic from cooling and shrinking too quickly. The servo system can flexibly adjust the pressure holding time and pressure curve according to the design characteristics of different molds to achieve a more stable pressure holding effect.

3. The influence of material properties on pressure holding
The melting characteristics and shrinkage of different materials will also affect the pressure holding performance of the servo energy-saving injection molding machine. For some polymer materials, the volume shrinkage is large during the cooling process, and a higher pressure holding pressure is required to compensate. For some materials with low shrinkage, the pressure holding pressure can be appropriately reduced. The advantage of the servo energy-saving injection molding machine is that it can flexibly adjust the holding pressure and holding time according to the physical properties of different materials, so that the equipment can be widely adapted to the injection molding needs of various plastic materials. The fluidity of the material will also affect the holding effect. Materials with good fluidity are more likely to maintain uniform pressure distribution when filling the mold cavity, thereby improving the overall efficiency of the holding stage.

4. Accurate control of holding time
The efficient holding performance of the servo energy-saving injection molding machine is also inseparable from the precise control of the holding time. If the holding time is too short, it cannot effectively compensate for the shrinkage of the material during cooling, resulting in gaps or unstable dimensions in the product; if the holding time is too long, it will waste production time and increase energy consumption. The servo system can accurately set the holding time and flexibly adjust it according to actual process requirements. By accurately controlling the holding time, the servo injection molding machine can improve production efficiency and reduce unnecessary energy waste while ensuring the quality of the product.

5. Stability of the hydraulic system
The servo energy-saving injection molding machine usually uses a servo motor to drive the hydraulic system. The stability of the hydraulic system also has an important influence on the holding performance. The servo motor can dynamically adjust the flow and pressure of the hydraulic oil according to actual needs, so as to achieve precise control of the pressure holding stage. The design and maintenance of the hydraulic system are also crucial. Factors such as the temperature and pressure fluctuation of the hydraulic oil will affect the stability of the pressure holding stage. If the hydraulic system is not stable enough, the pressure fluctuation during the pressure holding stage may cause quality problems in the product. Therefore, regular maintenance of the hydraulic system to ensure the cleanliness of the hydraulic oil and the normal operation of the system is the key to ensuring the pressure holding performance of the servo energy-saving injection molding machine.

6. Ambient temperature and equipment heat dissipation management
Changes in ambient temperature will also affect the pressure holding performance of the servo energy-saving injection molding machine. Excessive temperature will cause the hydraulic system to rise too fast, affecting the precise control of the servo motor and the stability of the hydraulic oil, and thus affecting the pressure output during the pressure holding stage. Servo energy-saving injection molding machines are usually equipped with an efficient heat dissipation system, which uses a fan or water cooling system to maintain the normal operating temperature of the equipment to ensure that the pressure output during the pressure holding stage is not affected by the external environment. Good heat dissipation management not only improves the pressure holding performance of the equipment, but also extends the service life of the equipment.
