Solution

Scrap and recycled granulate in injection moulding

cycle, mould, scrap, and quality data are siloed; the share of regrind is not controlled by recipe.

← Back to solutions

Sector

plastics manufacturers; indicative C22.2/C22.29.

INDICATIVE NACE CODE

Process

material preparation → machine and mould setup → moulding → inspection → grinding and reuse of admissible scrap.

Problem

cycle, mould, scrap, and quality data are siloed; the share of regrind is not controlled by recipe.

What the solution includes

scales for scrap and regrind; cameras; read-only injection-machine link; mould and recipe register; QMS defects; ERP material batch.

What changes

less scrap and a controlled share of regrind.

How the result is measured

What we measure
kg primary polymer / 1,000 good units
Baseline
stores and production records
Target
AFTER DIAGNOSTICafter pilot recipes
Evidence
scales, recipe, production order.

Business effect

lower primary polymer cost and earlier detection of unstable processes.

Component parts

Physical assets

Link to a funding programme

There is no open funding programme linked to this solution. When a new procedure opens, we check its conditions against your company and project.

Scope and clarifications

The intended result is verified with data from your process rather than assumed in advance. For a funded project, your SME is the beneficiary. PixelAutomate is the brand under which we work. The contracting company is identified in the quotation, contract, and invoice.
