An injection molding apparatus including a stack mold tool and a ball screw centering device. The stack mold tool including a stationary mold block, a center mold block movable relative to the stationary mold block, and a distal mold block movable relative to the center mold block. The ball screw centering device includes a center bearing housing connected to the center mold block, a rotatable shaft having a first side ball track and a second side ball track, a first nut coupled to the stationary mold block, the first nut including a track portion cooperating with the first side ball track to define a passage for a first set of ball bearings, and a second nut coupled to the distal mold block, the first nut including a track portion cooperating with the second side ball track to define a passage for a second set of ball bearings.

An injector for introducing a fluid includes a main body designed as an insert and including a first tool contact surface for an injection-molding tool and a second tool contact surface for the injection-molding tool; and an injection-molded housing that completely encloses the main body on at least one portion of the main body, the injection-molded housing including at least one first opening that extends linearly towards the main body.

A mold for use with an injection molding machine includes a body having a surface and a ring protruding from the surface for aligning the body and a platen. The ring defines a right circular cylinder having a protruding end, the protruding end having subtracted therefrom a generally wedge-shaped portion, the protruding end forming a tapered end.

An injection moulding tool with at least one cavity for producing thin-walled, container-like injection-moulded products, in particular cups, tubes, tube heads, vials, bottle blanks or syringes. The injection moulding tool comprises a die holding plate, which has at least one cavity-forming die; a core holding plate, which has at least one core unit with a cavity-forming core; at least one stripping ring for stripping the injection-moulded product off the at least one core, with the at least one stripping ring arranged between the core holding plate and the die holding plate; and at least one adjustable core centring device for the fine alignment of the at least one core in the at least one die. The stripping ring is held in a floating manner in a stripping plate, which is arranged between the die holding plate and the core holding plate; and the at least one adjustable core centring device is arranged between the core unit and the core holding plate.

An injection-molding tool comprising at least two separate mold plates each having a mold insert socket with a mold insert attached in the mold insert socket. Each mold plate have mutually opposite and parallel abutting side faces defining the thickness of the mold plate and a number of mutually aligned guide bushings forming through holes adapted for axially sliding one of the mold plates with respect to the other on a common guide pin in a direction perpendicular to the abutting side faces of the mold plates. The guide bushings and the mold insert socket of at least one mold plate am interconnected via one or more connection plates each extending parallel to the abutting side faces and having a thickness of less than half the thickness of the mold plate.

A method of manufacturing a wearable device comprising a printed circuit board (PCB) on which is mounted electronic components, the method includes providing a mould attaching the PCB to a cage, the cage comprising a cage body and at least one hole, inserting said PCB into the mould; arresting the PCB relative to the mould by inserting an insert tool into the mould and attaching the insert tool to said at least one hole, injecting a wet applied structural component into said mould and removing said mould.

An injection molding machine has a clamp that generates electromagnetic force and that secures a moving plate or a fixed plate using attractive force that is produced by the electromagnetic force; a pressure sensor that is provided in the clamp, wherein the pressure sensor measures contact pressure that acts between the moving plate or the fixed plate and the clamp; and a controller for performing a measure to prevent detachment of the moving plate or the fixed plate based on the contact pressure.

A moving system for structures includes a linking unit located between first and second structures that can move in a first direction. A drive unit is connected to the first structure, and the first and second structures are connected. The second structure moves along the first direction when the drive unit moves the first structure along the first direction. The linking unit has a first part located on the side of the first structure and a second part located on the side of the second structure. The first and second parts line up along the first direction. The first part can shift toward the second part in a second direction different from the first direction without moving along the first direction, and the second part can shift toward the first part in the second direction without moving along the first direction.

The disclosure relates to an injection molding device suitable for injection molding and curing of plastic parts. The injection molding device comprises a first mold carrier and a second mold carrier arranged linearly movable relative to each other in a first direction between a proximal position and a distal position. The injection molding device further comprises at least two cavity modules cycling during operation between a first position and at least one second position. The first position being essentially between the first and the second mold carrier and the at least one second position is usually lateral to the first and the second mold carrier.

A coinjection molded multi-layer container includes an inner layer, an outer layer, and a barrier layer. The inner layer includes a first polymeric material and forms an inside surface of the container. The outer layer includes the first polymeric material and forms an outside surface of the container. The barrier layer is located between the inner layer and the outer layer and includes a second polymeric material less permeable to gas than the first polymeric material. The barrier layer is biased toward the inside surface or the outside surface such that the inner layer and the outer layer have different thicknesses.
