Larger Capacity Auxiliary Injection Unit Introduced
Mold-Masters has extended the capabilities of its E-Multi auxiliary injection platform, introducing the new larger capacity EM5 model.
Mold-Masters is introducing its largest capacity E-Multi auxiliary injection unit for multishot molding, the EM5. The E-Multi is an all-electric auxiliary injection unit that offers multimaterial and coinjection molding capabilities for single-shot machines. This new unit expands the shot range of the E-Multi from 550 to 1237g (18 to 42 oz).
Mold-Masters says this larger capacity system targets the production of large individual components and high-cavitation molds. Due to its size and weight, the EM5 is intended to be installed in a horizontal configuration as standard, however an optional vertical installation package is available.
The E-Multi platform converts any existing injection molding machine for multi-shot, multi-material or co-injection molding, with significantly lower capital investment requirements and faster lead times than a traditional multi-shot injection machine. E-Multi units are available from EM1 through the EM5, giving molders a broad shot range from 7.7g to 1237g (0.26 oz to 42 oz). The system is compatible with a range of plastics including post-consumer recycled resins and biobased plastics. An E-Multi for LSR is also available.
