Claims
- 1. A process for the manufacture of molded parts from granulated plastic, wherein the surface of the grains of the plastic pile required for one molded part is wet with a reactive monomeric preproduct and is subjected to a surface polymerization in a thin layer in a vestibule, which is connected to a mold cavity, by a hot gas supplied thereto to make it weldable with the cores of the grains remaining cool and solid and, subsequently, the surface of the grains having become weldable, the plastics pile is abrubtly pressed into the mold cavity of a hollow mold by an impact-like pressing at sufficient pressing speed and, upon termination of the compressive motion, a sufficient pressure is applied to the mold cavity, so that the plastics pile is sintered.
- 2. A process for the manufacture of molded parts from granulated plastics, wherein the surface of the grains of the plastic pile is required for one molded part is plasticized in a thin layer in a vestibule, which is connected to a mold cavity by a hot gas supplied thereto, the cores of the grain remaining cold and unplasticized, and subsequently, the surface of the grains having become weldable, the plastics pile is abruptly pressed into the mold cavity of the hollow mold by an impact-like pressing and sufficient pressing speeds and, upon termination of the compressive motion, a sufficient pressure is applied to the mold cavity, so that the plastics pile is sintered.
- 3. A process for the manufacture of molded parts using a mold with relatively movable mold parts enclosing a mold cavity which is fed with a plasticizable material and using a granular plastics pile required for one molded part, comprising plasticizing the surface of the grains of the plastic pile in a vestibule which is connected through the wall of a die casting unit to the mold cavity by directing hot gas therethrough with the cores of the grains remaining unplasticized, whereby the plastics pile is caused to form a bubble layer in the vestibule so as to make the surface of the grains weldable rapidly and uniformly, after the surface of the grains become weldable, roughly pressing them into the mold cavity with an impact-like pressing, and, upon termination of the compressive motion, subjecting the molding in the cavity to a pressure, the pressing speed and pressure being sufficient to sinter the grains together.
- 4. A process for manufacturing molded parts, according to claim 3, wherein a bubble layer is formed and the mold parts are still slightly open at the beginning of the press-in movement and including closing the mold parts as the filling comes to an end.
- 5. A process of manufacturing molded parts, according to claim 3, wherein the mold cavity is evacuated during the pressing of the weldable plastic material into the mold cavity.
- 6. A process for the manufacture of molded parts using a mold with relatively movable mold parts enclosing a mold cavity which is fed with a plasticizable material and using a granular plastics pile required for one molded part, comprising wetting the surface area of the grains of the one molded part plastics pile with a reactive monomeric preproduct and subjecting the wet surface of the grains to a surface polymerization in a thin layer in a vestibule which is connected through the well of a metal die casting unit to the mold cavity by directing hot gas therethrough with the cores of the grains remaining cold and solid, whereby the plastics pile is caused to form a bubble layer in the vestibule so as to make the surface of the grains weldable rapidly and uniformly, and, after the surface of the grains becomes weldable, roughly pressing the plastics pile into the mold cavity with an impact exerted by the metal die casting unit at an impact speed and, upon termination of the compressive motion subjecting the mold cavity to a pressure, the impact speed and pressure being sufficient to sinter the grains to form the one molded part.
- 7. A process of manufacturing molded parts according to claim 6, wherein the mold parts are still slightly open at the beginning of the press in movement and including the step of closing the molded parts as the filling comes to an end.
- 8. A process of manufacturing molded parts, according to claim 6, wherein the mold cavity is evacuated during the pressing of the moldable plastic material into the mold cavity.
