Cooling inside the mold accounts for over 60% of total cycle time.
Mold temperature fluctuations compromise product quality.
Inability to perform injection and cooling in parallel.
Decoupling cooling from the mold: Robots extract preforms immediately after molding.
Dedicated cooling stations enable precise temperature control.
Parallel processing: Injection and cooling occur simultaneously.
Parallel operations eliminate bottlenecks.
Higher mold utilization and output per hour.
Stable cooling environment ensures consistency.
Reduced internal stress improves mechanical properties.
Distributed energy consumption.
Extended mold life and reduced maintenance.
