GAS INJECTION TECHNOLOGY

Product catalog summary
Overview of Gas Injection Technology (GIT)
Gas Injection Technology (GIT) is a method used to create hollow plastic parts by injecting gas, typically nitrogen, into molten plastic. This technique, first described in 1972, has evolved significantly since the 1980s, offering reliable and efficient solutions for producing high-quality plastic components.
GIT Techniques
Two primary techniques are highlighted:
  • Partial Fill Method: Involves filling 50%-90% of the mould cavity with plastic, then using gas to fill the remainder, creating a hollow structure.
  • Overflow Cavity Method: The mould is completely filled with plastic, and excess material is displaced into an overflow cavity by the injected gas.
Both methods maintain gas pressure during the cooling phase to ensure quality.
Benefits of GIT
  • Produces high-strength, dimensionally stable parts without warpage or sink marks.
  • Reduces the need for assembly by creating single, hollow parts.
  • Offers design flexibility and reduces material usage and cycle time.

GAS INJECTION TECHNOLOGY-2

BAUER KOMPRESSOREN GIT – GAS INJECTION TECHNOLOGY FROM BAUER – ONE-STOP SOLUTIONS BRIEF OVERVIEW OF GIT A procedure similar to GIT was described for the first time in 1972. This technology has proven reliability and has shown market growth from the 1980s onwards. GIT denotes the method of blowing gas, especially nitrogen, into plastic to create a hollow tubular pipe. In previous methods plastic was melted and injected into a mould; however, this method was unable to produce a thick-walled flattened bubble. GIT TECHNIQUES There are at least 10 variants of GIT, based on the type of piece produced...
