We have put together some of the most frequently asked questions, and the answers, that BAUER Plastics Technology Group and its representatives get from our customer.
Gas Assist Injection Molding is the most effective method of applying pressure to an injection-molded part during cooling. Gas assist injection molding is a low-pressure process, reducing the clamp tonnage required for molding. Nitrogen gas is applied to the part internally, either directly into thicker sections of the part or via a network of gas channels that are added to the part. Through proper design, this lower gas pressure is applied evenly throughout the part and can be sustained during the entire cooling phase. High-pressure differential within the mold cavity is avoided, thereby eliminating the associated defects.
Gas Assist Injection Molding will lower your production costs.
As a result, the following benefits can be realized.
If it were going to cost you money to use the gas assist process there would be no reason to do it. The fact is that gas assist will save you money. The cost savings in production are real and immediate. True there is a capital expenditure that will allow you to start a gas assist program, but with a BAUER gas assist system the payback will usually take six months to a year. Then you will enjoy the cost savings for years to come.
