Analysis of system diagram
Linear actuators favor movement of an object in an exact straight line. Now let us discuss about the system diagram of a simple molding machine. The simple machine has three linear actuators one being used for opening and closing of mould, the second being used for the barrel movement, the third for injecting polymers.
Fig1.1 represents the block diagram of a simple molding machine. As mentioned before, it has three linear actuators. The linear actuator1 as shown in fig1.1 controls the opening and closing of the mould. Once the mould is closed, the barrel can be moved forward or backward. ...
