BOY with triple impressive performance in Kielce, Poland

Drei BOY-Spritzgießautomaten auf der Plastpol / Three BOY injection moulding machines at the Plastpol trade fair

BOY participated at the PLASTPOL trade fair in Kielce (27th to 30th of May) by presenting two automatic injection moulding machines operating together with one injection unit. In the booth of the Polish BOY representative Wadim Plast Sp.j., the three machines from BOY, which specializes in injection moulding machines of up to 1.000 KN, demonstrated their capacity.

Compact cleanroom

Equipped with an efficient servo drive and antistatic painting, a model BOY 35 E (350 KN closing force) produced protective caps for a syringe for insulin injections. Using a laminar flow unit that is compliant with cleanroom class 7 (corresponding to ISO 14 644), the protective caps were directly packed into aseptic packaging following ejection from the 16-cavity mould. The production data was printed on the transparent bags to permit tracing and were then vacuum-sealed. It was possible to locate the packaging machine directly under the cantilevered clamping unit in a space-saving manner. 

Ready for use production unit

A new Boy 60E (600 KN closing force) produced beer glasses from highly transparent polycarbonate. The plastic glasses were taken out of the tool using a four axes BOY SL 30 industrial robot and then placed on a conveyor belt. The visitors of the trade fair got fresh draught beer by pressing a button.
The automatic injection moulding machine, which is new to the BOY product range, was equipped with an increased closing force, the multi-patented multi-touch Procan ALPHA ® 2 control and EconPlast. The newly developed optional plasticization system uses up to 50% less energy for melting the plastics.

The whole production equipment including the automatic injection moulding machine, the industrial robot with integrated rotational function, conveyor belts and a protective body compliant with EC norms can be ordered in a ready to use state from BOY.

How singles become partners

The model BOY 2C XS – an injection unit for two-component or multi-component  injection moulding offers the possibility of transforming a classical injection moulding machine into a 2K machine. The injection unit with integrated hydraulic drive and a Procan ALPHA ® 2 control proposes a plasticization volume of up to 76,4 cm³ and attains injection pressures of up to 3.128 bars.

The model BOY 2C XS can be connected to different types of injection moulding machines with just a few steps. Owing to guidable rollers the machine can be easily transported and thus provides for flexible use. Furthermore the positioning and command of several BOY 2C XS can be carried out from the same basic machine.
