PIT

PROJECTILE INJECTION TECHNIQUE

Projectile Injection Technique

Projectile injection (PIT) was developed because physical properties dictate that the residual wall thickness of components increases as the diameter increases.

AKROMID® A3 GM 20/10 4 WIT black (4529) is also suitable for production of pipes with diameters greater than 30 mm. Projectile injection (PIT) was developed because physical properties dictate that the residual wall thickness of components increases as the diameter increases (rule of thumb: the residual wall thickness of the pipe is 1/8 – 1/10 of the outside diameter). With this technique the component is partially or completely filled.

Afterwards the projectile (out of plastic or metal), which is located right above the gas/water injector, pushes the melt back towards the injection point and creates the hollow body. PIT is a suitable method particularly when the geometry, especially that of the cross section shape, is similar throughout the component. Slight changes in cross section can be handled using variable projectiles, but larger ones cannot. The advantage of PIT is that the thinnest residual wall thickness can be achieved with this method variant.
