Injection moulding is a complex process. The properties of the produced parts are directly dependent on the quality of supplied raw materials and process variables including temperature, pressure and speed, among others.
Optiject project is based on the feasibility of using spectroscopic probes in injection moulding machines for monitoring material parameters but also processing conditions. This real time control is expected to hold significant benefits for injection moulders in terms of improved quality, higher productivity and cost reductions.
