After the molding to be heated is completed, the upper clamping mechanism 341 of each upper clamping group 34 is operated in the non-clamping state, and then the upper bearing 15 and the upper heating unit 2 are moved upwardly away from the mold heating and cooling unit 4, And simultaneously operating the lower heating plate holder 22 to move away from the mold heating and cooling unit 4, at this time, the mold heating and cooling unit 4 is supported by the exposed top end portion of the lower support column 21 (see FIG. 7), and then The joint 422 conveys a cooling medium (for example, cooling water, etc.) into each of the metal pipes 421, so that the cooling medium flows from the input end 423 of each metal pipe 421 toward the output end 424 thereof, and passes through the metal pipes 421 and the mold. The heat transfer of group 41 absorbs thermal energy and the material is cooled and formed.

After the cooling molding is completed, the lower bearing 13 and the mold heating and cooling unit 4 are moved to the mold pick-and-place position, and then the lower clip mechanism 241 of each lower clip group 24 is operated in the non-clip state, and The automated machine opens the mold set 41 to take out the finished product, and then continues the above steps to perform another material forming operation.

It is worth mentioning that the order of the above-mentioned forming operation steps is not limited to the above, and can be adjusted and changed according to actual operation requirements. In addition, the gas generated during the material forming process can be discharged to the outside by the mold air holes 416 and the cover air holes 433, so that the finished product surface is not pressed by the gas to generate flaws, thereby improving the quality of the finished product. The yield is good for the heat dissipation of the metal tubes 421.

It is worth mentioning that, in the process of performing multiple material forming operations, only the mold set 41 is cooled and cooled by the temperature control group 42, and the upper heating plate base 32 and the lower heating plate base 22 are maintained. At a heating temperature, through the auxiliary heating of the upper heating plate holder 32 and the lower heating plate holder 22, the heating speed of the mold set 41 after heating to the temperature required for molding can be accelerated, and the heating speed can be effectively reduced. The mold set 41 repeatedly heats the heat lost during the heating and cooling process to achieve an energy saving effect. In addition, the metal tubes 421 of the mold heating and cooling unit 4 may also be input only through the cooling medium for cooling, but only the upper heating plate holder 32 and the lower heating plate holder 22 are passed through the upper heating plate holder 32 and the lower heating plate holder 22. Heating can make the above heating and cooling steps more simplified and smooth.
