Plastic injection mold making forum?

Well no replies surely means that no one knows the machine in question! So what is your question/issue? Do you have any mechanical/electrical experience?

I asked the question 6 months ago, i am looking for a manual on this machine, as stated in my previous thread. No I'm not very good with machine electrics, but i am a Toolmaker by trade since doing my apprenticeship all those years ago. I have made a mould for my Austin Allen Machine in fact I've made many at various jobs for these machines. That is the main reason for buying it in the first place. But i wasn't made aware it was kept in a shed and going rusty through lack of use, care and attention. Bought off of ebay. But it is single phase and im hopeful i may just get it to work.

The problem you'll have getting any information for injection machines, is very few people really know about them, and those that do very rarely want to share what they know :-/

You could try posting over on the CNC zone moldmaking forum - https://www.cnczone.com/forums/moldmaking/

Well I presume that you have done a Google search? I appreciate that you asked the question 6 months ago, but considering the amount of people on this forum, it's always going to be a needle in a haystack reply. If you're only asking if anyone has any information or a manual, I think you have your answer. I'm not trying to be rude so please don't I am, being an engineer by trade and hobby, I would have great fun in restoring it.

No i did not do a search, but i will now. Yes i was thinking it would be a good project. As if i needed a new project. I've got too many already. But thanks anyhow.

I have a friend that recently experienced this issue on a mold and a sales person from Taiwan just so happened to be there talking about molds. The sales guy showed my friend a product that sounds like it would be perfect for you.

Hi i am not sure who you are referring to when you say it would be perfect for you. Is it me or someone else? As it is not clear.
