Provided is a blow molding machine including an injection molding unit and a blow molding unit, wherein the injection molding unit includes a preform mold and an injection device configured to supply resin to the preform mold, wherein the injection device is fixed to a support plate, and wherein the support plate includes a position adjustment mechanism capable of adjusting a position of the injection device in an upper and lower direction with respect to the preform mold.

An injection-molding system includes an extruding system configured to produce a mixture; a discharging channel communicable with the extruding system and including an outlet configured to discharge the mixture; and molding devices configured to receive the mixture. Each of the molding devices includes a hollow space, and a feeding port communicable with the hollow space and engageable with the outlet. An injection-molding method includes providing an extruding system configured to produce a mixture, a discharging channel including an outlet, and first and second molding devices; engaging the outlet with the first molding device; injecting the mixture into the first molding device; disengaging the outlet from the first molding device; moving the discharging channel away from the first molding device and toward the second molding device; engaging the outlet with the second molding device; injecting the mixture into the second molding device; and disengaging the outlet from the second molding device.

A method for producing components or profiles from at least one solidifiable plastic compound in an injection moulding facility, said method comprising stationary mould components and mould components which are movable with respect thereto. The method includes injection of solidifiable plastic compound into a channel formed in the movable mould components and, from there, via connections either in portions into one or more mould cavities. The channel is enclosed by at least one stationary, temperature-controlled mould component. A continuous channel compound strand is formed with attachment compound strands, which is transported away from the injection point with increasing cooling and solidification and increasing length, together with the filled mould cavities and mould cavity portions. The channel compound strand, together with the connection mass strands, after its solidification and after opening the mould cavity or the mould cavities is separated from the component(s), and the component or the components is/are ejected.

Some embodiments relate to a method for the direct soling of a multilayered shoe sole. The method can provide two distinct sets of mold frames for a first and a second shoe sole layer and a distinct order for the soling of the layers. In contrast to art traditional approaches, a first layer (e.g. a midsole) is first soled to an upper in a first mold frame and subsequently a second layer (e.g. an outer sole) is soled onto said first layer in a second mold frame. The method can allows for an increased design flexibility and the inclusion of additional functional or aesthetic features, such as air pockets, undercuts, toe caps or running sole tips previously not possible with direct soling processes. Some embodiments relate to an injection molding system equipped and configured for carrying out the method.

A rotating apparatus includes a rotary plate for mounting a tool part, a rotary shaft connected to the rotary plate, a rotary feedthrough including a stator, and a rotor connected to the rotary shaft for feeding through at least two media to the rotary plate. The rotor has a first rotor part for feeding through a first medium and a second rotor part for feeding through a second medium, and the first and the second rotor parts are thermally separated from each other. A first media routing for the first medium is in the form of a hose and/or pipe for the first medium from the first rotor part past the connecting part to the rotary plate. A connecting part is non-rotatably connected to the second rotor part and the rotary shaft. The hose and/or pipe extends from the first rotor part.

The inventive method for manufacturing a medical device having a shuttle mold system mounted in a vertical injection molding machine, the shuttle mold system having a top section and two bottom sections, with the two bottom sections mounted 180 degrees from each other on a rotating table and the top section mounted in a fixed position above the rotating table, and where after molding, the table rotates 180 degrees for removal of parts and inserting fixtures for the next device manufacture cycle.

The present invention achieves cost reduction by simplifying the manufacturing process for a film-formed molded product provided with a metal coating film capable of transmitting electromagnetic waves therethrough. This method for manufacturing a film-formed molded product which includes a molded product and a metal coating film covering the molded product comprises: forming the molded product between a movable mold and a fixed mold; and then forming the metal coating film which covers the molded product by a film-forming part of a second mold without taking the molded product out from between the movable mold and the fixed mold. The metal coating film is capable of transmitting electromagnetic waves therethrough as a result of generation of cracks after being formed.

A blow molding device including: an injection molding unit manufacturing a bottomed preform made of resin; a blow molding unit; a support part supporting the preform; and a conveying unit conveying the support part to the blow molding unit, wherein the blow molding unit includes: a first mold for performing a first step of subjecting the preform to heat-set blowing at a first temperature; a second mold for performing a second step of blow-molding an intermediate molded article, which has been blow-molded by the heat-set blowing, at a second temperature lower than the first temperature, thereby manufacturing a container; and a movement unit capable of moving the first mold and the second mold relative to the support part so as to perform the first step and the second step continuously.

Provided is a blow molding machine including an injection molding unit and a blow molding unit, wherein the injection molding unit includes a preform mold and an injection device configured to supply resin to the preform mold, wherein the injection device is fixed to a support plate, and wherein the support plate includes a position adjustment mechanism capable of adjusting a position of the injection device in an upper and lower direction with respect to the preform mold.
