Extruding / Molding Applications

PRECISION ACTUATORS FOR MOLDING AND EXTRUDING PLASTICS, RUBBER & COMPOSITE MATERIALS

With rapid advancements in the composites, plastics, and rubber industries, manufacturers face growing demands for efficient, precise, and reliable production machinery.

Kyntronics hybrid servo actuators and servo power units offer advanced process control to help machine builders and end users meet these rising expectations in molding and extrusion applications.

KYNTRONICS PRODUCTS SUPPORT A RANGE OF APPLICATIONS IN MOLDING & EXTRUDING EQUIPMENT:

• Presses: Apply accurate position and force across a variety of material types, while tolerating high shock load conditions.
• Material Handling Systems: Optimize roll handling, stackers, and packaging machines with compact high-force actuators.
• Converting & Laminating: Precisely position slitter knives and roll handling equipment with durable, high-cycle performance.
• Injection & Blow Molding: Enable accurate mold clamping and machine motion control—ideal for plastic and rubber production.
• Extruding: Maintain consistent force and position to improve throughput and product uniformity.
• Plastic Thermal Welding: Deliver programmable press-and-hold functionality for tight weld seams and repeatable results.

ADVANTAGES OF KYNTRONICS ACTUATORS IN MOLDING & EXTRUDING APPLICATIONS:

• High Force-to-Size Ratio: Maximize output without compromising space—ideal for OEMs and retrofitting existing machines.
• Servo Precision Control: Support high-speed, high-force actuation with smooth motion, critical in injection molding and extrusion timing.
• Electric Actuator Option: Replace complex hydraulic systems with a clean, cost-effective hybrid actuator solution.
• Energy Efficiency with Power-On-Demand: Draw energy only when needed to improve sustainability, reduce heat, and lower operational costs.
• Integrated Feedback: Kyntronics actuators include force and position feedback, improving quality control in dynamic applications.

Compared to traditional hydraulic cylinders and ball/roller screw EMAs, Kyntronics hybrid actuators offer a smarter, more energy-efficient, and precise solution for demanding molding and extruding tasks.
