In the plastic injection molding sector, energy efficiency is a top priority, and in this regard, the introduction of servo pumps like Hydraut's KSPH is revolutionizing the modernization of presses by combining energy savings with ease of installation. Among the many advantages offered by components like the KSPH, the simplicity of configuration and installation clearly stands out, making them true plug-and-play systems.
The "Plug & Play" concept of Hydraut
The KSPH servo pump is designed for hassle-free installation in any plastic press, minimizing machine downtime. This "ready-to-use" approach saves time and costs, allowing production to resume quickly without significant interruptions.
Key components of the KSPH servo pump
The Hydraut KSPH system consists of three essential components that ensure simplicity and efficiency:
- Inverter Drive: this device controls the motor speed, optimizing energy consumption;
- High-Energy-Density Brushless Motor: ensures consistent and long-lasting performance, minimizing maintenance;
- Internal Gear Pump: designed to offer high efficiency with quiet operation.
Simplified installation process
The installation of a KSPH system follows a straightforward, well-defined process aimed at minimizing machine downtime and ensuring optimal implementation. Each step is carefully designed to be carried out efficiently and safely.
1. Selecting the right package
Hydraut offers a wide range of standardized KSPH packages suitable for different technical needs. Choosing the right package is based on parameters such as the required maximum flow rate and pressure for the press.
2. Preparing the press
Before installing the servo pump, the existing press must be prepared by removing the old hydraulic system, if present. The compact design of the KSPH means that no major structural modifications are necessary.
3. Installing the KSPH system
The KSPH kit arrives pre-assembled, reducing the time needed for installation. Simply place it in the designated area and secure it.
4. Connection and configuration
Once installed, the system can easily connect to the press control system thanks to the inverter's intuitive interface, which simplifies configuration. Additionally, prior work by our technicians during internal tests ensures that the inverter is pre-calibrated to the final application parameters, making the system ready for immediate connection and startup.
5. Startup and Calibration
After installation, the system is ready for startup. Optional optimization of the pressure and flow rate PID control enables enhanced performance, adapting to the specific needs of the application.
Reduction in installation time and minimization of errors
The plug-and-play system allows for a faster installation compared to traditional hydraulic systems, which require complex processes. This significantly reduces machine downtime, improving overall productivity. Furthermore, the pre-configuration of each KSPH system component minimizes installation errors, ensuring a smooth and quick setup. With reduced installation time, the press returns to full operation much faster, contributing to an immediate return on investment.
An investment in future efficiency and competitiveness
Adopting the KSPH servo pump represents more than just a technological upgrade for plastic injection molding machines. It is a strategic choice that embraces a shift toward a more efficient, sustainable, and competitive industry.
In a sector where every minute of downtime leads to significant losses, the ability to implement a plug-and-play system like the KSPH not only drastically reduces downtime but also simplifies the entire upgrade process without compromising performance quality and without the complexity and costs associated with traditional solutions.
The industrial sector is increasingly oriented toward digitalization and maximum efficiency. Solutions like servo pumps provide an immediate operational advantage and also prepare businesses for future challenges, allowing them to remain competitive in a constantly evolving global market.
