Presmall SC 6 is the name of the new version of the mini all-electric injection moulding machine that Presma will unveil at the K 2013 exhibition (stand C57, hall 15). This new machine distinguishes itself from the previous model mainly for the 6-ton tiebarless clamping unit and the multi-axis control system driving up to 16 axes (5 of which are standard axes dedicated to the injection and clamping operations).
The use of a high-speed fiber optic network and of a high-resolution encoder allows the machine controller to promptly verify and adjust the position of each actuator every 0.44 milliseconds, thus ensuring a positioning accuracy in the order of a tenth of micron. Its absolute encoders integrate a backup battery which eliminates the need for the zero calibration that usually has to be carried out when starting up electric machines.
A touch-screen colour panel with a simple and user-friendly graphic interface enables the user to set the processing parameters, carry out an alarm diagnosis and acquire and store all the essential production data.
