Horizontal injection molding machine PX series

fully-electricfor rapid production cyclesfast-cycling

Overview
The PX series is an all-electric injection molding platform designed for compact, energy-efficient and high‑productivity production cells. Configurable via a modular system, PX machines combine servo-electric clamping and injection/plasticizing axes with optional servo-hydraulic functions, advanced process control and seamless automation integration.

Key Features

• All-electric clamping unit with servo-electric 5-point double toggle, dimensioned for heavy and large molds
• Precision linear guides for accurate platen guidance and superior parallelism
• Automatic mold height adjustment and automatic clamping force control for fast setup and stable production
• High-precision electric ejector offering independent parallel movement and reduced cycle times
• Servo-electric injection and plasticizing axes with optional servo-hydraulic injection movement; multiple performance classes available
• Fast nozzle contact via dual-cylinder servo-hydraulic nozzle system for uniform force and leak-free connection
• Servo drives with energy recuperation to minimize idle consumption
• Optional compact Servo Power-Pack for hydraulic core and cascade functions
• smartControl MC7: 21.5" multi-touch, ProcessDesigner logic and integrated smartCube interface
• APCplus with cascadeX and materialX for adaptive, zero-defect production
• Excellent accessibility: wide doors, removable panels and clear nozzle-area access
• Flexible parts logistics: multi-directional discharge chutes, conveyor or automated discharge
• Compact footprint through intelligent enclosure concept enabling up to ~20% space reduction

Advantages

• Compact layout that reduces factory footprint and simplifies option integration
• High productivity via large platen dimensions, stable supports and modern electric main axes
• Improved energy efficiency and maintainability through low-friction guides and recuperative drives

Automation & Integration

• Designed for LRXplus linear robots (single or twin) and industrial robots for compact cells
• Machine enclosure supports integrated automation: conveyor interfaces and safety door decoupling, CE-compliant
• Industry 4.0 readiness via smartCube, smartConnect and smartMachine connectivity modules

Process & Options

• Wide choice of injection units and special plasticizers for various polymers; easy retrofitting for core pulls, power packs and flow measurement
• Space-saving media manifold located close to the mold for efficient cooling and reduced pressure loss
• Selectable temperature control circuits (prioritized/synchronous heating, boost/draw-down, optimized groups)
