At Fakuma, Braunform will be presenting an 8-cavity injection mould that has been specifically designed for the production of insulin pen housings. The 8-cavity pilot mould made it possible to test and optimise the article and mould design and ultimately resulted in a 32-cavity production mould. Thanks to synchronised mechanical movements in combination with a horizontal article, direct injection with valve gate is possible. The injection mould is characterised by a high level of user-friendliness. Production is efficient and precise. The additional ejector stage controls the movement of two mini slides. A very space-saving and compact design is achieved as a result.

The technology and design of the mould are based on two core competences of Braunform: Lift&Strip² technology and the MED Mold standard, which is established in the company since 2010. The Lift&Strip² technology ensures that the movement initiated by the machine ejector lifts and strips the article at the same time. This innovative solution optimises the production process and increases production efficiency. This technology makes it easier to operate the stripping strip and reduces the cycle time. Thanks to a movable forced guidance system, the stripping strip moves synchronously with the mould opening. Previously, the mould was opened and the stripping strip was actuated with a separate drive. Now this drive is no longer required and two processes are combined into one.

The Braunform MED Mold is a concept for the safe use of injection moulds in cleanrooms, which is based on the company's more than 25 years of experience in medical technology and production in cleanrooms. It was specifically developed for medical and pharmaceutical applications and takes into account the challenges of the use of injection molds in cleanrooms. This standard defines in detail various mold specifications and their use according to ISO cleanroom classes. The team of specialists at Braunform fully integrated the MED Mold standard into the company in June 2010. With this know-how, the company offers its customers in the medical technology industry low wear and low particle injection moulds and — if required — safe and efficient production of plastic articles.
