The new automation systems for the auto-production of ball vales of varies size is assembling and tested in the workshop of GuangDong Switek Technology Co., Ltd., of which will help the producers of PVC/PPR ball valves reduce the man hours andd increase the productivity.
The automation systems under go assembly and testing are solutions for the produciton of ball valves with both male and female nuts of varies size to be used in the drainage system. With a custom made 3 axis servo injection robot and end of arm tooling, the automation system will finish the production process of O ring/Core sorting, layout, inserting, parts picking, runner cutting and handle turning.
Since the first automation system of in mold insertion for pipe fittings production delivered in 2015, SWITEK R&D team developed a series of custom made automation system which include PVC pipe fittings runner cutting, PVC/PPR pipe fittings brass in mold insertion and runner cutting, faucet mandrel in mold insertion and runner cutting solution, ball valve core and O ring in mold insertion and runner cutting solutions etc. to provide the producer of pipe fittings a turn-key solutions of injection automation.

PVC pipe fittings are one of the most commonly used connector in the drainage project and a cold runner designed mold is the most economic solutions for the production of the PVC pipe fittings, but the removal of the runner in result is a labour intensive work. Is there any economic way to remove the runners from the PVC pipe fittings automatically?
For the producer of PVC pipe fittings the most economic soluton to remove the runner is with an Air Nipper fixed to the picking robot immediately after the PVC pipe fittings picked out from the mould. The robot will drop the seperated pipe fittings and runner to different containers. Below configuration of SWITEK runner cutting solution for 16 cavities PVC pipe fittings for your reference:
The Air Nipper runner cutting system is an easy to start solution for the producers of PVC pipe fittings, which the Air Nipper would be controlled by the picking robot and is the best solution for the small size PVC pipe fittings (with a diameter around φ25mm). Anyway it also must be custom made according to the mold design.
