Plastic mold filling

Lipstick back filling machine

Plastic mold filling

Put the plastic mold on top of lipstick mechanism, and filling from back side of the mechanism.

Merit
Various lipstick design is possible which is difficult with metal mold.
Demerit
Plastic mold is less heat conduction, so cooling process is difficult, and it might have stickness.

Rubber mold filling

Lipstick back filling machine

Rubber mold filling

Put the silicon mold on top of lipstick mechanism, and filling from back side of the mechanism.

Merit
The lipstick with logo and complicated design is possible.
Demerit
Rubber mold is less heat conduction, so cooling process is difficult, and it might have stickness and less shiny aspect.
And it according to the bulk formula. Rubber mold has risk of swelling.
*Our rubber mold use special material, so it doesn't have swelling, even after 1000 times filling.

Metal mold for back filling

Our recommendation
Lipstick back filling machine

The feeding of the metal mold and holder is managed by servo motor.
The hot air after filling, it is possible to set the temperature, air flow, time, frequency from touch panel.
The cooling tunnel has ability to -15 degree. The setting of the cooling time is from touch panel, and control the conveyer speed inside of the cooling tunnel.

This lipstick filling machine with bearing metal mold is used by many cosmetic manufacture in Japan.
And there are many kind of machine which is for industrial type and small quantity production.
The metal mold have used for lipstick production from long time ago.
But recently, formula of the lipstick bulk becomes very soft, so it is difficult to produce the lipstick by the rubber mold and plastic mold with soft formula, because of the problem such as breakage, stickness and so on.
So the metal mold is remarkable mold for the soft formula now.

-Lipstick metal mold filling machine-

It takes only 15 min from filling to insert process.
All setting parameter which has influence on the product quality is from touch panel, and it is possible to save and read out these setting parameters.
The heating and cooling of the metal mold is by surface contact of the aluminum plate which is heated and cooled, so the ability of thermal exchange is very high.
The temperature of the metal mold is measured automatically just before filling, so it is possible to fill the bulk in the metal mold every time same temperature.
The filling nozzle is jacket type, so it is possible to manage the temperature of the nozzle accurately. And the filling nozzle goes down inside of the metal mold, and filling with up movement of the filling nozzle.

-Bearing metal mold-

The metal mold is made by special material and treatment, so it has less stickness and good shiny aspect on the lipstick surface.
It is unnecessary to separate the metal mold for picking up the lipstick, so there is no defect of the lipstick depend on the distortion inside of the metal mold.
There are 2 bearings in the both side of the metal mold, to fix the position of the upper mold and lower mold, so it is easy to take out the upper mold without breakage of the lipstick. And this bearing is used for insert machine to fix the position of the lipstick and mechanism.

-Insert machine-

It is possible to insert the lipstick in the mechanism without touching the lipstick by operator.
In the case of slim type(support type), it is easy to set the direction of the mechanism cut side.
It is possible to use for regular type and slim type lipstick.
