From May 11, Arburg is producing high-tech protective masks made of liquid silicone (LSR) and polypropylene (PP) injection-molded at its headquarters in Lossburg, Germany
.
Based on existing production conditions, Arburg expects to produce 3,500 high-tech protective masks per day
.
Gerhard Böhm, sales director of Arburg, said that the new crown epidemic continues to develop, and the demand for masks in hospitals and nursing homes has risen sharply
.
"This means that we can now start serial production in Lossburg,
" says Gerhard Böhm

In the subsequent expansion stage, Arburg may consider installing a filter on the flow valve on the mask, and plans to quickly produce this filter part with partners
.
By using the corresponding FFP2 or FFP3 filters, doctors and nurses can reliably protect themselves from viruses or bacteria when in direct contact with patients
.
Masks are designed for multiple purposes and can be easily sterilized

Elastosil LR 5040 type post-curing free LSR material is suitable for food contact applications and complies with FDA CFR 21¨177.

Currently, Arburg is producing these masks on two all-electric injection molding machines at its training center
.
Among them, the LSR parts are produced by an Allrounder 570 A injection molding machine with a clamping force of 2,000 kN and four cavities in one mold (the mold is provided by Polar-Form); The molds are produced by an Allrounder 470 E gold full motor from Foboha

.
Among them, the injection molding machine for the production of LSR parts uses Elmet's LSR feeding system and Kuka's six-axis manipulator
.
During the complex demolding process, the manipulator can take out the flexible mask and place it on the conveyor belt
.
Another injection molding machine for the production of PP supports uses the easier-to-operate linear Multilift select robot system
.
Finally, the PP support is manually fastened to the silicone mask, and the corresponding elastic elastic band and packaging are installed
.
The first masks are being distributed to the company's employees and high-impact partners around the world
.
As a next step, the Floydstadt District will take over the additional coordination and distribution of hospitals, care facilities and civil protection organisations
