Carbon contamination
Measures
How can we prevent resin from degradation?
Proposal 1 Routine Purging
■ Clean the screw regularly by ASACLEAN
Key is to remove resin remaining in the machine before it gets carbonized.
Changing color/resin by using ASACLEAN will be routine purging.
Purging frequency (Standard) | For standard resin | once a week |
---|---|---|
For flame retardant resin | once every 1 to 3 days |
Proposal 2 Sealing by ASACLEAN
■ Before machine shutdown, clean by ASACLEAN and measure a full shot, and then turn all heaters off. By doing this, degradation of resin inside the cylinder will be minimized
- ∗ Sealing means leave ASACLEAN in the machine and shut down the machine.
- ∗ Do not use glass-filled grades for sealing.
- Before shut down of machine -
Please try this method when you stop the machine at night or over the weekend
