Application of a servo motor for die casting machine

Servo motor die casting machine application in energy saving and precise control, simplified structure and extended life and other aspects.

Servo Motor is a special electric motor that is mainly used to accurately control the position, speed and acceleration of mechanical motion. It achieves precise regulation of output through a closed-loop control system and is widely used in robots, industrial automation, RC vehicles and other applications that require precise control.

The servo motor is a precision actuator that integrates a motor, a gear set, a feedback sensor, and a control circuit. It achieves precise control of mechanical motion through a closed-loop control system. Its high precision, fast response, and stability make it an indispensable key component in modern automation and robotics.

What is the die casting machine servo motor?

The die-casting machine servo motor is a core component of the servo drive system used in the die-casting machine. Its main function is to drive the hydraulic actuator by accurately controlling the motor’s speed and torque. This servo motor is usually used in conjunction with an oil pump, pressure sensor, flow sensor, and electronic control system to improve the control accuracy, energy saving effect, and production efficiency of the die-casting machine.

Servo motor die casting machine application: Energy saving and precise control

Servo motors achieve high-precision motion control through closed-loop control systems, which can significantly improve the energy efficiency and production efficiency of die-casting machines.

For example, the servo energy-saving hydraulic control system drives the oil pump through the servo motor to achieve precise control of the hydraulic system, thereby reducing energy consumption and extending the life of the equipment.

The application of servo motors in die casting machines has significant advantages, especially in energy saving and precise control.

  • Energy saving effect
  • Precise control
  • Improve production efficiency
  • Energy saving effect
    Servo motors significantly reduce energy consumption by optimizing energy use. For example, servo energy-saving hydraulic control systems can save up to 60% of energy while improving production efficiency and precision.
  • In addition, servo drive systems further reduce energy consumption through dual closed-loop control (pressure and flow), with energy savings of up to 45%-75%. In actual cases, die-casting machines using servo motors have reduced energy consumption by 20%-30% compared to traditional hydraulic systems.
  • Precise control
    Servo motors’ high response speed and precise control capabilities enable them to perform well in the die-casting process. For example, servo motors can achieve fast start and stop and high-precision speed and pressure control, thereby reducing porosity defects and improving product quality. The real-time feedback and learning control functions of servo motors further ensure the stability and consistency of the injection process.

  • Improve production efficiency
    Servo motors improve the operating efficiency of die-casting machines by reducing the lag and energy loss of the hydraulic system. For example, servo drive systems can shorten cycle times and improve production efficiency. In addition, the efficient control algorithm and fast response capabilities of servo motors enable die-casting machines to complete complex injection processes in a shorter time.
Purpose of servo motor

Servo motor die casting machine application: Simplified structure and extended life

Die-casting machines using servo motors usually have simpler structural designs, and due to the improvement of key components, the service life of the equipment is extended.

For example, the servo-driven die-casting machine simplifies the mechanical structure and improves the control accuracy by using the servo motor and oil pump together.

Servo motor driven die casting machines achieve higher production efficiency and longer equipment life by optimizing the accuracy and response speed of the control system.

For example, the servo system can respond quickly (<50ms), which shortens the production cycle by 5% to 7% compared with ordinary machines, while reducing vibration and shock, thereby extending the service life of the machine. In addition, the weak magnetic overspeed performance and vibration resistance of the servo motor further improve the reliability and durability of the equipment.

Servo motor die casting machine application: Dynamic adjustment and flexibility

  • Dynamic adjustment capability
  • Flexibility and adaptability
  • High precision and high efficiency

Servo motors can quickly respond to changes in production needs and achieve online adjustment of mold clamping force to avoid problems caused by insufficient clamping force.

This adjustment accuracy is higher than that of hydraulic motors, and can achieve precise positioning and reduce energy waste.

  • Dynamic adjustment capability
    The servo motor can achieve real-time adjustment of the operating parameters of the die-casting machine through its high-precision control capability. For example, the servo-driven die-casting machine can optimize the control of the mold closing force by adjusting the pressure and flow sensor signals of the hydraulic actuator, thereby improving production efficiency and product quality. In addition, the servo motor can also achieve dynamic adjustment of the punch buffer system through the pre-acceleration function, thereby reducing mold deformation and improving forming accuracy.
  • Flexibility and adaptability
    The die-casting machine driven by the servo motor has higher flexibility and can adapt to different types of die-casting process requirements. For example, the servo motor can quickly adapt to different load and position requirements on the production line by changing the speed and force control mode.
    This flexibility makes the servo motor-driven die-casting machine particularly suitable for scenarios where frequent mold changes or production process adjustments are required.
  • High precision and high efficiency
    The servo motor drive system can achieve higher control accuracy and response speed through closed-loop control technology. For example, the weak magnetic overspeed performance and vibration resistance of the servo motor enable it to maintain high efficiency and stability at high speed operation.
    In addition, the high rigidity and torsional rigidity of the servo motor further improve the positioning accuracy and operational stability of the equipment.

Hybrid drive system

In some die casting machines, servo motors are used in combination with hydraulic systems to form a hybrid drive system.

This system can control the servo motor and hydraulic system separately during the injection phase and the pressurization phase to optimize the production process.

Significant energy-saving effect

The application of servo motors has greatly reduced the energy consumption of die-casting machines.

For example, the oil pump drive device is controlled by a servo motor and can automatically adjust the pump station pressure according to different parameter requirements, which has a significant energy-saving effect.

Intelligence and automation

Servo motors, combined with human-machine interfaces (HMI) and programmable controllers, can achieve complex parameter settings and automated control, improving operational convenience and production efficiency.
