Definitions
- thermoplastic Injection molding device and method for producing precision optical and precision mechanical parts from a thermoplastic
- the invention relates to an injection molding device and a method for producing precision optical and precision mechanical parts from a thermoplastic material with the features mentioned in the preamble of claims 1 and 23.
- Precision optical parts are defined by the fact that when the surface is interferometrically checked, the maximum deviation of the surface geometry from the nominal value is a strip up to a free diameter of D ⁇ 50 mm.
- PC polycarbonate
- PMMA polymethyl methacrylate
- PC polycarbonate
- Such mechanical stress conditions in the injection molded part are the reason for the insufficient long-term stability of the injection molded part.
- the internal flow processes forced by the mechanical stress conditions equalize the stress conditions in total or in individual areas over the course of time (relaxation) and thereby produce a partially deformed geometry of the injection molded parts.
- the relaxation already occurs at room temperature, but can be accelerated by higher temperatures.
- an injection molded lens with initially precision optical quality can become completely unusable in this way.
- the remaining mechanical stress states in a precision optical injection molded part lead to the optical behavior of a quasi uniaxial crystal, ie the optical constants, such as the refractive index, become dependent on the respective mechanical stress state. This is not acceptable for precision optical parts.
- the manufacturing process of injection molding technology also necessarily involves molecular changes in the plasticized injection molding compound, which must be carefully analyzed.
- the plasticized injection molding compound consists of a polymeric material, ie the individual "molecules” are chains of molecules made up of 25,000 to 75,000 individual molecules, depending on the material and type. If this plasticized, amorphous mass flows from the injection molding cylinder via the sprue and the connection into the mold cavity, then the mass shows a "non-Newtonian behavior", ie the viscosity of the melt depends on the size of the shear and deformation speed. This behavior is called structural viscosity. This means the peculiarity of the melt to show better flow properties with increasing shear rate. Increasing shear rate creates a falling viscosity and thus better flow properties and vice versa. In addition, the viscosity depends on the temperature. It applies that increasing temperature also a falling viscosity and thus produces better flow properties.
- Another effect is that the long molecular chains orient themselves in the direction of flow, regardless of whether there is a temperature gradient between the flowing mass and the runner wall.
- the associated order in the molecular structure is expressed in the quasi-crystalline behavior of the injection molding.
- turbulence can also arise due to sudden deflections / changes in direction and gradual changes in the sprue channel or connection cross section.
- the defined state of order that has arisen on a straight path of the sprue channel is thereby partially changed, so that an undefined state of order is created with flow-oriented molecular chains. It has been shown that the flow orientation is irreversible and is not subject to relaxation.
- the processes to be taken into account in the molecular area also include the shear of the thermoplastic material in the injection molding process and the thermal degradation of the thermoplastic material which is caused thereby.
- Shear is the internal friction of the material during the filling process.
- the internal friction arises from the speed gradient of the plasticized mass as it flows within the sprue, the connection and the mold cavity. Due to the adhesion, the flow velocity at the interface between the plasticized injection molding compound and the sprue wall is almost zero.
- the plasticized injection molding compound moves at maximum speed in the cross-sectional center. The different speeds result in strong friction and thus shear of the chain molecules. This friction releases a considerable amount of heat. If the thermal energy generated exceeds the binding energy, for example of the -CC bond, the polymeric molecule is broken down (cracked). Precision optical parts then show a strong deviation of the optical parameters from the target values, such as refractive index and v-value (Abbe's number). The optical values differ across the cross-section of the optical component, creating streaks that are independent of the flow orientation and the internal stresses.
- the invention is based on considerations that, in contrast to the previously common principles.
- the focus is currently on the highest possible production speed with a stable production process.
- the shortest cycle times can only be achieved with a thermally inert injection mold and minimum values for the temperatures of the injection molding compound and the injection mold, as well as maximum filling speeds. Rapid demoulding of the injection molding can only be achieved if the temperature of the injection mold is already close to the demolding temperature of the injection molding.
- the plasticized injection molding compound introduced into the mold cavity must not build up any significant temperature gradients while it is flowing into the mold cavity and while it is cooling to the demolding temperature.
- the temperature in the sprue area and in the mold cavity is at least almost the same as the injection molding compound flows in. However, the same temperatures are desirable.
- the cooling process is to be set so that the amount of heat dissipated at the interface between the plasticized injection molding compound and the cavity wall is always the same as the amount of heat coming from the core area of the injection molding.
- the conditions according to the invention are achieved in the injection mold used in the device in that the steel mass of the upper and lower mold parts and the mold dies is reduced in dependence on the mechanical strength in such a way that the thermal inertia is reduced allows rapid cooling adapted to the heat balance of the injection molded article to be cooled.
- the basic idea of reducing the masses in the construction elements of the injection mold leads to an additional advantage, which is that the upper and lower mold punches and the casing of the mold cavity can be designed as replaceable parts in the upper and lower mold parts. Since the number of parts produced with an injection mold is smaller in the production of precision optical and precision mechanical injection moldings, the basic structure of the injection mold is of particular importance for economic reasons.
- the heat balance of the injection molded part can be determined according to the type of material, material type, volume, surface and geometry using known methods. This heat balance is the basis for the construction of the injection mold.
- the mathematically determined amount of heat, which must be removed from the injection molding prior to demolding, also serves as the basis for the temperature program to be created for the cooling process.
- the variables known from thermodynamics, such as thermal conductivity, heat transfer, heat transfer, specific heat, are of crucial importance for the creation of the cooling temperature program, which reliably avoids the formation of a spray skin.
- Suitable liquids are, for example, water, glycerol, water / glycerol mixtures, polyglycols, paraffins C 12 to C 6 , phthalic acid esters and chlorinated paraffins. Air, nitrogen and carbon dioxide are particularly suitable gases.
- the heat balance of the injection molded part, the specific heat of the mold cavity material and the coolant are decisive for the selection, because the economical production for the production of precision optical and precision mechanical components also requires not only the shortest possible cycle time, but also a short one Coolant flow. It is preferable to use bronze alloys for the shell of the mold cavity, which, with suitable strength, have a higher thermal conductivity than corresponding steel alloys.
- the course of the temperature control channels is to be arranged in such a way that a counterflow from the part of the mold cavity remote from the gate to the gate is established.
- the head part of the die forming the mold cavity for the production of precision optical components preferably consists of a galvanically represented nickel / copper replica of a corresponding optical glass surface.
- the material thickness of the copper replica must be about 5 mm at the thinnest point for reasons of strength
- the back should contain ribs, which ensure through their geometric design that the heat transfer takes place evenly over the entire optical surface. This requirement also applies to the manufacture of precision mechanical components.
- Specially shaped inserts made of highly thermally conductive material, e.g. Copper or copper alloys may be provided.
- the molded and temperature-fit molded parts can be designed so that they are in direct contact with the temperature control and allow a homogeneous heat dissipation adapted to the heat balance.
- the temperature program is to be set in such a way that the physically induced thermal inertia of the mass remaining after minimizing the injection mold does not unnecessarily extend the cycle time. This is achieved in that the heating of the injection mold begins again in the area of the connection before the cooling process to the demolding temperature of the injection molding.
- At least two temperature control circuits that can be controlled or regulated independently of one another must therefore be provided.
- the first circle runs in the connection already mentioned and the second circle surrounds the mold nest.
- the upper limit of the temperature when heating of the mold cavity should be 1.3 to 1.5 times the glass transition temperature ET of the thermoplastic amorphous material in order to avoid the formation of a spray skin.
- ET 100 ° C
- the 1.1 to 1.2 times the crystallite melting point applies.
- the non-stick layer preferably consists of a diamond layer applied in a plasma process with a thickness of 100 to 200 nm. A larger layer thickness must be avoided in order not to unnecessarily reduce the heat transfer.
- the ratio V : H must be determined as a function of the flow length s L from the connection to the point in the mold cavity that is furthest from the connection. The following applies:
- V L: H 12: 1 at s L ⁇ 20 mm
- the material that cools in the mold cavity can automatically draw material from the sprue area in accordance with the change in volume, which material thus serves as a material depot.
- the temperature programs for the sprue with the connection and for the mold cavity must run synchronously. This requirement requires control of the individual temperature control circuits that works with high reproducibility. Due to the continuous cooling, the so-called post-shrinkage of the injection molding after molding is also eliminated. This post-shrinkage, which is known in injection molding technology, usually arises from later relaxation of mechanical stresses and leads to the geometry change in the shape of the injection molding which has already been explained.
- the highest temperature specified by the manufacturer for the injection molding compound should always be selected. This minimizes processing viscosity and shear.
- the usual roughness depth in the sprue is around 3 to 8 ⁇ m.
- Such a roughness favors both the "clawing” and the "swirling" of the polymeric mass on the surface of the runner and thus causes additional harmful shear.
- the shear caused by adhesion to the surface of the runner can also be reduced by an anti-stick layer.
- non-stick layers made of siloxane or perfluorinated polyethylene with conventional layer thicknesses of approx.
- 0.1 mm at room temperature have a substantially lower adhesion than at the processing temperature of the thermoplastic injection molding compound, so that the coating appears to be favorable for demolding, but unfavorable for filling the mold cavity.
- layer thicknesses of 100 to 500 nm show a significant reduction in the adhesion even at the filling temperature.
- layer thicknesses of 100 to 500 nm should therefore be selected to minimize adhesion.
- a thickness of approximately 100 nm has proven effective for diamond layers.
- the optimization of the values for the injection speed or the injection pressures can only be achieved empirically.
- the temperature program must be set according to a complete filling of the mold cavity.
- the test criterion is the polarization-optically measured path difference in the sprue area of the test injection molded part. The following applies to precision optical parts: Maximum permissible path difference r to ⁇ ⁇ 20 nm. The following applies to precision mechanical parts: Maximum permissible path difference r to ⁇ ⁇ / 4 ⁇ 136 nm.
- the optimal injection speed for the complete filling of the mold cavity is that which is 0.5 m / s interval lower than the injection speed determined for the test injection molding with the permissible path difference.
