Plasticizing system for plasticizing solidified-resin particle, plasticizing system, comprising: housing assembly providing: (i) melt channel configured to receive solidified-resin particle, and (ii) opposite-facing surfaces spaced apart from each other, and defining, at least in part, convergene channel configured to receive the solidified-resin particle. Opposite-facing surfaces and the convergence channel form part of melt channel. Plunger assembly is movable, at least in part, relative to opposite-facing surfaces. Plunger assembly configured to move, at least in part, solidified-resin particle relative to opposite-facing surfaces along, at least in part, convergence channel. In response to relative movement between solidified-resin particle and opposite-facing surfaces, solidified-resin particle receives, in use, plasticization-inducing effect from opposite-facing surfaces. The plasticization-inducing effect is configured to platicize solidified-resin particle into flowable melt and injected into a mold assembly (850).

The present invention is directed to an in-line compounding and molding process for making fiber reinforced polypropylene composite parts and articles that exhibit beneficial mechanical and aesthetic properties imparted by such process and compositions. The in-line compounding and molding process includes the steps of providing an in-line compounding and molding machine comprising a twin screw extruder fluidly coupled to an injection molder; extrusion compounding in the twin screw extruder a composition comprising at least 30 wt % polypropylene, from 10 to 60 wt % organic fiber, from 0 to 40 wt % inorganic filler, and from 0 to 0.1 wt % lubricant to form a melt extrudate; conveying the melt extrudate to the injection molder; and molding the melt extrudate in the injection molder to form a part or article. Fiber reinforced polypropylene articles formed from the in-line compounding and molding process have flexural modulus of at least 300,000 psi and exhibit ductility during instrumented impact testing. Fiber reinforced polypropylene articles formed from the process of the present invention are particularly suitable for making household appliances, automotive parts, and boat hulls.

An injection molding machine includes a plasticating unit for plasticating a thermoplastic resin, and an injecting unit connected to the plasticating unit through a connecting passage to inject the plasticated resin into a mold. In the connecting passage, provided is a buffering unit for reserving the resin in an amount at least equal to the quantity of the resin injected per one shot. The plasticated resin is temporarily reserved in the buffering unit, and then, the reserved resin is fed to the injecting unit when the measuring is carried out, whereby the plasticating unit can be driven continuously simultaneously with the operation of the injecting unit and the mold. The molding cycle can shortened with the plastication efficiency being enhanced.

An injecting machine includes an injection cylinder, a plunger, a plunger moving mechanism, and a mixing mechanism. The plunger is reciprocally received in the injection cylinder for moving between an advanced position and a retracted position, with the injecting a liquid mixture of two different liquid materials as the plunger moves to the advanced position. The plunger moving mechanism causes the plunger to move between the advanced position and the retracted position. The mixing mechanism is disposed on the injection cylinder for mixing the two different liquid materials together to feed the liquid mixture into the injection cylinder. The plunger includes a front portion having a helical groove formed on an outer circumferential surface thereof to allow the liquid mixture fed from the mixing mechanism to pass through the helical groove for collecting in a forward space formed forward of the front portion of the plunger.
