Separating Drum Type A 357 to Type 3512 B

The sloughing drum is used to slough off injection-moulded pieces that are still attached to sprue and then to separate these from one another. The drum is driven by a motor with a reverse switch, with which the turning direction of the drum is constantly altered. The times for right and left runs of the cage are adjustable. A constant turn direction is available as a second operating mode.

Highlights

Pieces that are still connected to the sprue after removal from the form from the tool must next be sloughed before the actual separation process can begin. MTF Technik installs sloughing drums for this purpose. This uses a sloughing medium (e.g., hardwood, plastic, steel rollers, etc.) that is placed free in the drum cage and is carried around with the parts and sprues. The variable turning direction of the drum cage ensures that the sloughing medium constantly falls against the pieces and breaks the connection to the sprue.
