MAGNUM VENUS PLASTECH Innovator Pro Manual 23
Recirculation Mode – Prior to and during operation in recirculate mode, use the
pump pressure regulator and gauge to suitably adjust the air pressure supply to
the pump.
Press the recirculate button to start the machine, the recirculate gun will open
and the pump will run and resin and catalyst will be pumped around the system
and returned to source.
To stop the machine, press the stop button.
The operator cannot start the machine in recirculate mode when the machine is
injecting, the stop button must be pressed first.
Injection Mode – Before an injection is started, ensure all external connections to
the mould etc. are correctly made. Also ensure that resin and catalyst lines are
correctly primed and that the required levels of materials are available. Ensure the
level of fluid in the flush tank is sufficient to clean the machine after the injection.
NOTE: When the system is initially primed with resin and catalyst and run
in recirculation mode, the fluid lines leading to the inject gun will not be
primed. Ensure the machine is run in inject mode and resin is collected in a
suitable container from the mixing head and that air is purged etc. Once
this has been done, ensure the resin is correctly catalyzing by performing
cup tests prior to using the machine to inject a mould.
Prior to and during operation in injection mode, use the pump pressure regulator
and gauge to suitably adjust the air pressure supply to the pump.
Set the MPG set-pressure to the required pressure. Once the injection has
begun, the pump will stop running and the injection gun will close when the fluid
pressure at the injection head exceeds this pressure. When the injection line
pressure reduces below the MPG set-pressure, the machine will continue to
inject after a pre-configured delay. This delay can be adjusted within the control
box and is also used for PV sensor/remote hold functionality.
Adjust the predetermining counter to set the number of required pump strokes for
the injection. See figure 4 for an overview of the predetermining stroke counter.
To change the preset count, press and hold the white button with arrow decal
while pressing one of the black buttons under the preset count corresponding
with the digit to be modified.
NOTE: The machine cannot be started in inject mode if a previous injection
has stopped automatically when the shot count has been reached and the
stroke count has not been reset. Press the reset button on the predetermining
counter to reset the count and allow the machine to be started.
