(Default Mode)

An injection molding press provides a contact closure during the “Screw Recovery Cycle”, or that period when the press is loading material prior to injection into the mold cavity.

The 2 types of extrusion presses are dependant on the input signal provided to the A250 additive feeder. Simple extrusion provides a contact closure to input 5 of the PLC, and it is assumed that the press is always run at the speed entered for the active recipe. Extrusion follower provides an analog signal to channel 0 of the analog module which changes in relation to the speed (throughput) of the press.
