ELMANN srl: The automotive injection moulding machine of 1800 ton and 6 injection units

 

Elmann srl, a leading Italian company in the moulding of the automotive sector -especially in car headlight – turned to Plastic Metal for a new injection moulding plant.

 

Until a few years ago, to realize a headlight, it was necessary to have several moulding injection machines that molded different pieces, which would then be assembled.

 

But Elmann Team had a more ambitious goal: to have a single, flexible machine to satisfy each of its customers with the same injection moulding machine.

Plastic Metal was able to find out a specific solution to please Elmann needs, creating 1800-ton machine with 6 injection units:

 

  • two independent injections units on the injection group side, with a hole of the fixed platen in an oval shape allowing free movements for each independent injection units.
  • two independent injection units in vertical position, also with independent movements.
  • one injection unit at the rear of the extractor, which rises during the injection.
  • a smaller injection unit positioned on the opposite side of the operator.

 

Each unit works freely, and they can be individually planned or in sequence, depending on the type of moulding.

 

Even this system has a MULTIPOWER technology for a low energy consumption and a maximum moulding flexibility.
