Abstract:
An installation for the production of a solid product from a powdered material comprises: a powdered material supplier; a die for receiving the material and forming the solid product to be produced; an upper punch which can co-operate in the die and which is driven in translation by a lower motorized cam; and a lower punch which can also co-operate with and in the die and which is driven in translation by an upper motorized cam. The upper and lower cams rotate in a synchronized manner. Moreover, the cam(s) are provided with an outer deformable profile which is intended to provoke particular actions from the punch that is moved in translation thereby.
Abstract:
A facility for using powder materials to produce a solid product having multiple layers includes a supply of powder material(s), a die for receiving the powder material(s) and shaping the solid product, the die being secured in a reversible manner to a die-holding table secured to the frame of the facility, and translatable upper and lower punches that engage with one another at the die to compress the powder material(s). The lower punch is connected to a system for uncoupling the members that provide the movement thereof, the system having a brake for limiting the downward travel of the lower punch to keep it in contact with the powder material contained in the die when producing the solid product to avoid the generation of additional compression during the receipt of powder material in the die during the intermediate filling phases for each layer of the product.
