The pendant of the IML robot provide an easy to operating HMI (Human Machine Interface) for the operators of the IML robot to start the system, programming or diagnose of the IML system. Here in this chapter we'll help you to have a better understanding of the IML robot control box and the function of each part of the pantant.

Why is 8 Cavities Mold Design the Best Solution for Elbow with Nuts?
For PVC/PPR pipe fittings with nuts with a diameter of around φ25mm most of the producer will choose an injection molding machine of around 250T and a mold cavities of 8 Cavities, will a more cavities mold design with a larger injection molding machine a better choice for pipe fittings producers?
According to the experience of working with LESSO group in the automiztion of their PVC/PPR pipe fittings injection production system, we finally decide to have an 8 cavities mold deisgn with 250T injection molding machine because:
Anyway, to upgrade your PVC/PPR pipe fittings injection molding system you must keep in mind that it's only valuable to have an automation system for bulk production products, which means that one injection molding machine with only one mold to be equipped with one automation system for the pipe fittings' Nut insertion, runner cutting and parts picking.
For any other question about a PVC/PPR pipe fittings auto-production system please contact Adams from SWITEK for a turn-key solutions of pipe fittings production.
