Rainfall and LightsensorIt has become a standard configuration for many cars. ARBurg has successfully addressed this challenge through a customized turnkey production line.
Produced by Friedrichs&Rath GmbH in GermanyRainfall/Light SensorThe shell is used for car models from well-known manufacturers. The basic functional sentences of this sensor include:
  Automatically turn on or off when there is insufficient light
  Automatically activate the wipers during rainfall.
Triple structure design
This is extremely challengingThree component componentsComposed of substrate and protective cover:
  A highly transparent optical component
  An infrared transmission component
  A layer of black outer shell

Optimal overall solution
  1. Multi component 4+4+4 cavity high-precisionmold
Complete injection molding in three steps to achieve the integration of three materials and one-time molding
Firstly, high transparency components and infrared components (made of Makrolon 264 and Lexan 123 R materials, respectively) are formed,
Subsequently, the mold rotates 180 ° on the turntable,
Finally, inject black shell components (made of Makrolon 2405 material)
  2. Efficient automation
MULTILIFT V20mechanical handSystem extraction
Transferred to the automatic visual inspection station without the need for manual intervention throughout the process.
  3. 100% quality inspection
Each component undergoes comprehensive testing of multiple optical features at the inspection station to ensure zero defect leakage, and then automatically packed into customized vacuum formed packaging according to customer requirements.
Working together for decades
  ARBURA injection molding machines have become the absolute mainstay of Friedrichs&Rath's production system, with advantages reflected in four dimensions:
  1. Having 27 ALLROUNDER injection molding machines(including vertical models), most of which have integrated MULTILIFT robotic arm systems, achieving highly automated production with both production capacity and stability.
  2. The equipment is equipped with rich advanced functionsOPC-UA interface (for hot runner and temperature control unit), core pulling, closed nozzle, blowing, hot runner controller, mold cavity pressure monitoring system, and various intelligent auxiliary software packages, covering the entire process from injection molding to quality control.
  3. Efficient Service Response Company:We highly appreciate the prompt response of ARBURA services, ensuring timely professional support and minimizing downtime losses to the greatest extent possible.
  4. Digital convenient management:By using 'arburgXworld' for spare parts management, the operational efficiency of the equipment has been further improved.
