  • DC500R Shibaura

DC500R-M/EM

Medium DC-R Machine

The DC500R-M/EM series uses a technologically advanced interchangeable modular method.


By changing the combination of four proven technologies on the injection end; R-M machines=standard servo hydraulic + hydraulics die locking, R-EM machines=standard servo hydraulic + optional servo die locking, R-H machines=super high-speed servo hydraulic injection + hydraulics die locking, R-EH machines=super high-speed servo hydraulic injection +optional servo die locking, along with the appropriate base frame we can support the production of a complete R-series line of very productive and reliable machines.

 

SHIBAURA MACHINE believes it should always continue to be innovative while preserving technologies of proud and proven traditions.

Better Pressure Buildup

Shibaura Machine has succeeded in reducing the pressure buildup time by improving the hydraulic intensification circuit.

Intensification start control

Compared with the conventional position-based start control, the new control system has been developed to start the intensification always at the same timing even with the ladling volume variation. It is effective in case of higher fast shot speeds and/or using the slowdown control.

Acceleration ability

Shibaura Machine worked on improvement of short time filling and short time intensification, which mostly improves the quality of cast products.

In the R- series, the standard injection and high grade servo injection are realized for performance improvement of the conventional machine.

We propose an optimal injection mechanism for each required  quality.

  • 100G represents the capability to accelerate to 10 m / sec at 10 msec.

Increased Die-Locking Rigidity

While the production bases are getting globalized, even in a different manufacturing environment, the same production efficiency is required as in the main plant.

Based on the know-how obtained from tours of many customers domestic and international, the conventional die-locking rigidity was changed and the new die-locking system that enables high productivity even under harsh environments was developed and put on the R-series.

Adoption of New Accumulator

Having changed from the conventional oil level control method to the piston control, which does not require an oil level gauge, the accumulator adjustment time is shortened and will help customers to improve their productivity.

Controller (TOSCAST-888)

All machine models come with an advanced controller (TOSCAST-888) as a standard feature. Thanks to the large 15-inch screen, the human-machine interface based on ergonomics, the operator’s maintenance/management environments are improved. The multilingual capability and input restriction control are possible to help improve the global production control efficiency.
In addition, it includes as standard the trouble diagnostic functions by the SHIBAURA MACHINE’s own technology, and together with the host communication (optional) helps improve the maintenance ease and production efficiency.

Operator’s touch panel layout

To improve the operational ease on R series machines, a 12-inch touch-screen display is situated at the operator’s station.
The buttons and switches control all machine functions, making the operational user friendly.

Line display

Besides the standard 48, selected from a list of over 200, items can be viewed on the Line Display, 16 temperature points can be monitored and viewed.

All of these contribute to your quality control and help increase acceptance rate.

Injection waveform

Possible to view vacuum and position waveform simultaneously.
In addition to the vacuum, a different waveform can be added.
All of these contribute to your casting analysis and help improve your casting technology and acceptance rate.

Password function

Passwords assigned to individuals will limit the pages and information that can be accessed.

Control alarm occurrence

On alarm occurrence the causes are made visible to save time of restoration. ・On alarm occurrence the causes are indicated including the location (by photograph/drawing), what to check and how to check.

On / Off Status display of the sensors, solenoids, and limit switches

This TOSCAST-888 display shows an operation monitor screen of the die cast machine showing the current ON / OFF status of the sensors, solenoids, and limit switches.

PLC circuit-monitoring function

PLC circuit can be monitored in real time, on TOSCAST screen; effective in trouble shooting.
●This is available on Shibaura Machine's advanced TC200 Sequencer
●Real-time monitoring is possible without connecting to a PC.
●Designations of contacts are written in Japanese or English.
●For safety’s sake the values and/or logic cannot be changed.

Automatic Ladle Device

HIGH ACCURACY LADLE DEVICE
Responsive to the growing needs for the importance of quality control, we have perfected the servo controlled ladle device that has increased the ladling quantity accuracy.

The servomotor drive both for the traveling and pouring axes achieves excellent stop position
accuracy and stable motions.
The use of a timing belt for the upper part of pouring drive transmission, and a double-roller
chain for the lower part achieves a smooth motion.

Maintenance and Trouble shooting are simplified because this device is controlled and monitored by the same control as the machine. This eliminates the need for an additional or external PLC to maintain.

Automatic Spray Device

SPRAY DEVICE FOR NEXT GENERATION, READY FOR HIGH QUALITY CASTING

Responsive to the growing needs for the importance of quality control, we have perfected the servo controlled Automatic Spray Head DBS*LR promotes die casting quality improvements and cost reduction!
Driven by the epoch-making fast cycling servomotor;loaded with the optimum spray head!!

The servomotor drive both for the traveling and positioning achieves excellent stop position accuracy and stable motion.

Maintenance and Trouble shooting are simplified because this device is controlled and monitored by the same control as the machine. This eliminates the need for an additional or external PLC to maintain.

Automatic extractor

FAST-CYCLE TAKE-OUT DEVICE
