OverviewThe SuperMaster Two-Platen (SM‑TP) series is a servo-driven two‑platen injection moulding machine family introduced in 2008 and continuously improved for high precision, stability and speed. Available clamping forces range from 700 to 6500 tonnes, covering large-scale industrial moulding applications.
Proven PerformanceHundreds of SM‑TP presses (SM700–SM6500) are in service worldwide across automotive, packaging, appliance and technical plastics sectors, demonstrating consistent production stability and mould protection.
Key Advantages- High clamp speed: open/close rates up to 750 mm/s for reduced cycle times.
- Energy-efficient servo drive: Innovance servo motors reduce power consumption by up to 80% while maintaining precision and low noise.
- Mix & match configuration: 14 clamping unit sizes compatible with 29 injection units for tailored press layouts.
- Fast setup: die height adjustment and clamping setup in approximately 20 seconds.
- High-pressure injection: dual‑parallel high‑pressure cylinders for injection pressures up to ~28,000 PSI.
- Optional features: on-the-fly ejector, electric screw drive, sequential injection and extensive hot runner integration.
European Components & Standards- EUROMAP-compliant platen and ejector patterns (T‑slot or custom patterns on request).
- Standard critical components: Bosch Rexroth / Vickers valves, Eckerle pumps, Gefran / Novotechnik transducers, Siemens / Schneider electricals.
Controls- Beckhoff control package: customized PLC solution with industrial-grade reliability.
- 15" multi-touch HMI: user-friendly interface for production and setup.
- CAN-Bus I/O and OPC-UA: fast response I/O, expandable isolated channels and network-ready data logging for IoT/cloud integration.
Injection Unit- Injection pressure range: approx. 18,000–28,000 PSI via dual‑parallel high‑pressure cylinders.
- Shot size coverage: from small to very large (multiple injection unit models available for full shot range).
- Swivel injection unit for easy barrel and screw maintenance.
- Linear-bearing injection units distribute injection stresses for improved repeatability.
- Screw drive: high-torque hydraulic motor or optional electric drive; precise back‑pressure control via proportional/LDVT valves.
