Description
Overview
The elast injection molding machine series is a special-purpose system for efficient, flexible processing of elastomers, rubber and solid/liquid silicone. Configurations include vertical or horizontal clamping units and multiple injection unit options to match production and automation requirements.
Key product features
Clamping: available with vertical or horizontal clamping units to optimize mold accessibility and automation integration.
Drive: servo‑hydraulic drive concept for precise force control and industrial duty cycles.
Injection unit: FIFO (first‑in, first‑out) injection unit standard for homogeneous melt quality; short injection nozzles reduce pressure loss.
Special injection options: rubber screw units available for low shot weights (e.g., elast 35 v‑xs, elast 100 v).
Heating platens: elastomer‑specific heating platens mounted as standard; platen rigidity engineered for stable part quality.
Tool accessibility: design permits fast manual or automated access and straightforward integration of upstream/downstream equipment.
Automation: integrated automation from simple brush modules to complex turnkey cells; full robot and peripheral integration possible.
Control: CC300 machine controller available with modern operating logic and configurable user navigation.
Applications
Manufacture of elastomer and rubber components such as O‑rings, sealing rings and technical elastomer parts.
Molding of solid and liquid silicone (HTV/RTV, LSR).
Overmolding of inserts and specialized elastomer assemblies (vertical variants suited to insert handling).
Project‑specific production cells requiring integrated automation and peripheral equipment.
Advantages & added value
Flexible machine concept covering a wide spectrum of elastomer applications.
Consistent melt quality across the entire shot volume due to FIFO units and short nozzles.
Extensive application experience and availability of competence centers for elastomer processing.
Standardized heating platens and high platen rigidity to support repeatable part quality.
Broad option range and retrofitability to adapt machines to specific processing needs.
