It sure is a great time to be alive! Do you have a homeshop?
On the note of Shredded Bottles, I don’t know if you know this already, so sorry in advance if I’m “preaching to the choir”, but the PET Plastic they are made of goes through Hydrolysis if even a small bit of water (vapor) is left in the flakes. So Drying the flakes and keeping then dry will be key. Beat of luck in that, I’m excited to see the results !
Nice improvements. If I can suggest. 1) Use phenolic materials as heat blocks. They are cheap, and easy to machine to shape. 2) Your ram is tight tolerance, great. However, if its expansion rate does not match the heat column, you can get it to jam. Normally in injection molding, to reduce leakage. You add small machine ribs or groves to the piston or ram. They will act as material collectors and reduce leakage without having to use tight tolerances. Similar to this design found in Injection Molder Valve gate assemblies. Or on shooting pots. 3) Always use heat paste for the installation of the heater cartridge's, reduces the chance of a hot spot and its a failure point. Same for the solid state relays, they should always be installed with heat paste on the back. 4) How are you mitigating the chances of a runaway heater control or the solid state relays? Both can fail in a close state. Does the E-stop control kill voltage to the heaters as well? Do you have a central E-stop? 5) Would always recommend to have a source of water nearby as you run the equipment. A simple bucket or pail filled with water is better than nothing. If plastic shoots out and gets on bare skin, the natural reflex is to grab the material with the other hand. And now you are burned twice if not wearing gloves. Throwing your hand or wrist into a bucket of water is far safer and minimize the burn damage. Whish I had one of those machine 10+ years ago, would have made my life easier in prototyping.

These are really great suggestions. I agree with all of them. Thanks, Dave
My favorite part about the community is the incredible design enhancement comments below. I was an injection molding foreman years ago followed by mold setting technician and later did some extrusion blow molding as well. Years later, two years ago, bought my first 3D printer. Right now I'm looking at a desktop cnc, laser and frankly, adding the injecto would give me four methods of producing parts for robotic design. The four together should provide the variety needed for creating most any type of part necessary. Great work guys. Love the Injecto! Love all the great feedback for improvements!
Really love this design. This would be great for anyone trying to build a microfactory in their garage!
Love the idea and build quality of the injecto 2.0. Just a thought, it might be a potential idea to add a micro controller to make operation easier and potentially automated. A user interface and automatic volume injection amount would be ideal so there is no guess and check on an expensive mold. Great work so far!
This is an awesome design! I'd recommend a floating joint from that push rod for the plastic and the crossbar that links the cylinders. Any misalignment of the rod and the cylinder that holds the plastic will destroy the tolerance you have on those 2 parts. I work as an automation engineer and the biggest failure point for pneumatic cylinders is misalignment. I think your cylinders will be fine (unless they move at different times). I think its a small change with big benefits. Its also very easy to judge a design from the outside looking in. Non designers love to criticize and say "this design is terrible its the worst thing I've ever seen" so this is not one of those comments. Overall GREAT job but that would be a small change that I would make. There are probably a million right and wrong ways to do this but overall you did a bang up job!

The stiffer crossbar is a good upgrade, based on experience, and looks promising. Another solution, though it requires considrably more vertical space and has issues related to rod stiffness (that can be overcome by using less slender rods) is to drive the plunger with a single cylinder. This machine is very similar to the way thermoplastic injection molding machines were built (for a very short time) prior to the invention of the reciprocating screw, and the good news is that most commodity thermoplastic resins (like polypropylene) have a pretty wide processing window regarding melt temperatures... and low melt index resins, such as those formulated for extrusion, tend to be more forgiving than high melt index ones. First things to go will be the piston and barrel and cartridge heaters aren't always easy to replace, so there'll be a market for spare parts.
Some Ideas for Version 3.0 -Powder Coating the Aluminum will result in a super high quality look - A Blast shield that you can lower and raise in case the mold breaks to protect your face. - Measurement lines on the rod on which you adjust the limit switch. So that you know how much Plastic will be extruded. - A Fan that turns on when things get too hot or you can turn on by yourself so you can cool down the maschine after extensive use And for the molds: -Ive seen people using aluminium outer rims in which you place in the resin molds. So that you dont have to print the molds extremly thick. -Aluminium will be better to clamp or screw together than resin since the thread are stronger. So you can add holes with threads on the aluminium outer rim

Could you please test these and post a video 1. using a 3D printed FDM Pattern to create Plaster of Paris Mould (preferably reinforced with hay for strength) and lubricate the internals of Mould with oil to prevent sticking of plastic with POP. 2. Instead of POP using pottery clay around the FDM 3D printed pattern and then cook it to get the mould. With the test Also find answers to: 1. Do these kind of moulds do the job? 2. How many parts/injections do these semi permanent(yes that's the objective) moulds can take? 3. Do they have adhesion issues with the parts? 4. Do they provide necessary finish to the parts? 5. How economical/costly are they compared to Aluminium or Resin printed Moulds.
Excellent work guys. Glad to see the 3D printed moulds solved the cost issue!
This is incredible, literally was just talking with my buddy about injection molding our project and how expensive it was, and then boom found your page. VERY impressive guys!
I work in an injection molding factory and I can ensure you you did a great job. Bravo!!!
Something to consider for a future version if you're worried about the heated chamber overheating the assembly, you can use thermally insulating mica sheets. We used these at my previous job to insulate the tooling from heater blocks for hot plate plastic welding machines.I would source them from somewhere other than McMaster Carr since their sheets tended to break down after only a few hours of tool use. As I said on your shreddy video, this is an amazing project and I am all for having hobbyist ways to recycle plastic waste. When I have the disposable income for tools again I'll definitely look into this.
Great to see this mold machine will fit on someone's desk and perform what is designed for❤️
as someone who's worked as a mold tool machinist and a press operator i approve. those were my 2 most stressful jobs and im glad i got out of them. it would be more fun to do this at home where you control everything and dont have past due deadlines and can take bathroom breaks as often as you need to.
Been waiting for it, machines are made so professionally that it's probably best on KZread

I like this. I was involved with a shop that started off using the resin cured molds as inserts into MUD units for prototypes (master unit dies). CNC aluminum was good for lower volume but is significantly higher cost in mold size. we were working to lower that cost to entry industrially. The primary limiter was the heat history of the plastic mold. though the resin cured was better than standard filament 3d prints, the heat would soak into the outer sides, usually blowing out the parting line, as it's harder to scrub the heat in that region; where there is little active cooling. Adding cooling lines in the prints didnt seem to help much as a trade off. Wall thickness of the resin mold had to be near double the part thickness to stand up to the injection pressure. (which was often 10K -20K PSI on smaller machines) in addition, the more heating and cooling cycles would make the acryllic, or composite resins degrade over time, even below the plastic transition temperature. Some compatabillity issues were found between resins near their transition temperature and the mold surface temperature. Painting an SLA with silicone to make a negative, and then casting a surface with an epoxy is allright for several swapp-able units; but in short order, you want to switch out to aluminum for prototyping. A thin skin of foil, or composite pouring resins (graphene, carbon black, copper flake) helped with heat scrubbing, but Resin casting and time cost adds up relatively quickly. Tolerancing on casting is good though. Shut off on parting lines were an issue (again, heat buildup) at small lot runs when you wanted to get up to production speed. Some solenoids in the bottom of the frame would be ideal to help with the ejection of parts -- but that's more of a bottleneck if you have fast enough cycles to make the heat scrubbing an issue. I like the bigger cyllinders, Often the injection speed is the limiter with the shot size. Venting and part geometry relative to the sprue helps with flow to reach further in the part shape. All kinds of fancy gating can be used to sidestep the machine limitations. The trade off is the more runner you add, the less part you get for your shot size. high end hot runners and valve gates are theoretically a choice; but I suspect part orientation in the mold and shortening the runner with several gates to fill will optimize given the low-cost-protoype constraints. There is a fair bit more done in the DFM for injection molding to make a part and a machine compatible. if your max shot size is 27 grammes, that's a good size -- but I'd bet there are limitations keeping you between 22-25. Would be willing to discuss more if desired. I would be interested to see some ideas for how to make this more durable. The next step up in price from a unit like this is a 10K screw driven desktop molding machine -- so this is super accessable; right around the cost of a basic 3d printer. if you can make polyCarbonate accessable to the hobbyist without using aluminum with a benchtop press -- that's a huge barrier to entry for 3-d printing. Injection molded part strength is better than cast, SLA or FDM for prototyping too. Very exciting project, great execution you guys.

This is definitely great! I also was surprised to see how the resin prints did withstand both temperature and pressure... About the possibility of plastic ejection : it would be neat to have a polycarbonate shield in front of the mold, perhaps a swiveling one, or snapping on one? Anyways, the 2.0 kit really ties up the loose ends from the 1.0.

Holy crap that is pricey. Great video looks so cool. I want one.
I think it would be nice to have an mesurement scale with the stop plate. So that you could fill the mold more acurate. You could do this with an ruler behind the rod or if the tollerances alow it, laser engrave it into the rod. You can calculate the volume of the empty mold to know howmuch plastic is needed. And calculate how much the injecter should move to inject this volume.
I wish I had one of these. You did an amazing job engineering them. I hope to own one, one day! Keep the cool stuff coming! 😃👍

Not an expert, but I'm a plastic injection molding technician at my job. Just a bit of helpful advice, when processing resin for injection molding you want most of the heat generated to come from friction. Part of that friction is created as the barrel screw rotates while building the charge (shot). Higher temp resins require a lower torque compared to lower temp resins (higher being over ~425°F). Also, industrial equipment incorporates a check valve into the end of the screw near the head to help accommodate the pressures that are generated as a result of this action. With all of that out of the way, absolutely fantastic work! I'd love to have one of these at home to play around with some day.
@ActionBOX

Thank you for your input. The machine you are describing is a more complex technology that uses a reciprocating screw. Our equipment is less sophisticated, and does not require the check valve, although producing the heat via friction would be nice if you could think of a way to do it cheaply. Cheers.

@@ActionBOX maybe machine flights into the plunger to create some sort of compromise between a plunger and screw and just attach a small geared motor to it. You wouldn't need much more than ~100rpm on average with some slight variability for what you're going to be injecting usually. Just have it rotate as it builds the charge from the bottom point up to capacity. Of course you'll need to have the proper tolerances. The biggest issue with building the shot this way without a checkvalve is you might end up with the side effects of gas in your molded pieces. Just spitballing, but I believe with a small geared DC motor attached and aiding the charge buildup at low rpm, you could gain consistency and increased lifespan for fairly cheap and fairly easily.
