Service and Tool Maintenance
Why is tool maintenance important?
Tool maintenance refers to cleaning and repairing of tools what is essential for maintaining the best working condition, ie. production process. Maintenance should be carried out routinely (preventive maintenance) following prescriptions, as well as if there is a problem (e.g. leakage of coolant, damage of tool shape, tool breakage, improper closing, etc.). Many tool buyers overlook tool maintenance but this is a very important part of a successful long-term injection molding process, as the condition of the tool directly affects the quality of plastic components injection. Preventive maintenance extends tool life and the quality of the injected parts by stopping almost all physical problems before they occur. Gradually, the injection molding process can also cause wear on the tool matrix, usually on the surface ie. the shape of the tool gradually accumulates a fine layer of material – leaving it on the surface can cause unwanted parts damage.
Unfortunately, many companies engaged in plastic injection molding avoid maintenance until quality problems occur or the tool is completely broken which could be very expensive and can damage even other parts. With regular and proper maintenance we can improve production and reduce the basic cost of the tool.
A well maintained tool is vital for regular production of high quality injection molded products. Moreover, good tool cooling will provide the highest quality and the most economical cycle time.
