ROBOSHOT α-SiA series High Precision Electric Injection Molding

New iHMI Controller • User friendly control with new help function and onboard manuals • New VNC capabilities Improved Clamp Design New toggle design allowing for faster and more fluid movements Advanced Artificial Intelligence (AI) Cutting-edge mold protection using AI Mold Protect and AI Eject guard

Flexible Injection Capabilities Precise and stable molding with easily interchangeable screws and barrels Superior Motion Control Technology Industry leading energy efficiency and repeatability Adaptive Clamping 2 piece platen and extended tie bars option allowing for maximum versatility

Servo technology makes the difference ROBOSHOT’s movements are entirely controlled by FANUC designed and built controlled servo drives. This not only results in maximized acceleration but, it ensures ultimate accuracy and exceptional reliability across all processes as well as highly precise motion, position and pressure control. Electrically driven axes Every ROBOSHOT comes with 4 servomotors as standard. Additional servomotors can be added as options. This enables separate control of ROBOSHOT’s movements – clamp opening and closing, ejector, screw, and injection – and results in a highly...

Versatile clamp unit ROBOSHOT’s versatile clamp unit features generous tie bar spacing as well as auto die-height and optional extended die height functions. The automatic clamp force optimization checks and automatically adjusts minimum clamp force, giving you increased security and eliminating the need to adjust the clamp force manually. Other clamp unit features include: • 5 point toggle mechanism • Rigid platens • Ball-screw driven eject and clamp system • Precise clamp and ejector repeatability • High speed clamp options available High-performance injection unit ROBOSHOT’s injection...

Versatile machinery for all applications With models capable of exerting clamping forces from 17 to 385 US tons, ROBOSHOT is ideally suited to a diverse range of straightforward as well as sophisticated injection molding tasks. Offering huge versatility, ROBOSHOT’s unique strength is the freedom it provides you to produce almost anything using just one machine – whether that be delicate items such as camera lenses to products, such as battery cases, that require high levels of dynamic force to produce. Thanks to it‘s high level of specification, even standard ROBOSHOT machines can be used...

High precision molding Thin wall molding Multi component molding Precise molding Micro-injection molding

Automotive industry With a host of functions designed specifically to resolve the issues – such as gas venting or variations in plasticizing time and volume – that can impact the production of automotive parts ROBOSHOT is ideally suited the large scale manufacture of automotive parts. ROBOSHOT will continue producing flawless parts over the long term, delivering excellent cycle times and requiring minimum maintenance. Repeatability is also in a class of its own, with the machine delivering exactly the same quality after 50,000 cycles as it did on the first shot. What is more, because...

Hydraulic and fully integrated servo cores Automotive parts frequently require cores. For these kinds of applications, ROBOSHOT is also available with hydraulic and fully CNC controlled servo cores. Optimal networking using Euromap 63 & 77 Euromap 63 and 77 are quality information management systems for globalized and larger scale of molding plants. • Central production monitoring • Process data capture & extraction • Machine status visualization • Customised reports

Electrical industry Producing high numbers of small electrical components requires excellent cycle times and maximum repeatability. This is where ROBOSHOT comes into its own with its smart functions designed to compensate for changes in material viscosity such as Precise Metering 2+3 or AI metering control. The excellent acceleration delivered by ROBOSHOT’s electric servomotors is also ideally suited for thin walls applications. Active gas venting also further enhances the quality of these components. Precise dosing ROBOSHOT Precise Metering 3 provides the exact dosing required to produce...

Precise insert molding Made for micro molding For processes requiring inserts, ROBOSHOT can be supplemented with a 6-axis Robot fitted with iRVison, the product of 30 years of experience in intelligent vision systems. Equipped with this technology, the robot picks and places inserts with an amazing degree of accuracy and repeatability. Perfect for small parts, this solution does not require an external guide or fixing. Only ROBOSHOT offers a 17 ton fully electric injection-molding machine. Designed to save precious floor space, this solution is ideal for use with very small molds and to...

Medical industry Quality, reliability and repeatability are critical to the production of medical products. Products molded for medical applications are also often transparent, making gas venting and changes in viscosity important issues. ROBOSHOT‘s highly sensitive pre-injection process resolves these issues, with ROBOSHOT’s smart AI Metering Control function compensating for variations in viscosity to ensure consistent results whatever the process. Because ROBOSHOT is equipped with up to 7 different screws as standard, manufacturers can easily alter production to accommodate different...

Historical traceability Given the nature of medical products, acquiring and processing data is critical. To make this easy ROBOSHOT is available with smart features -such as Euromap 63 and LINK i - designed to capture and store data on a central server and provide complete part traceability. Just what you need for setting up, validation and on-going monitoring. • Reference data curve storage • Quality control outputs • Multiple curve display • Ideal Process optimization tool
