Longtime market leader in all-electric injection presses NIIGATA will introduce two new machines to the market at NPE2015.
NIIGATA
NIIGATA MD110S7000
NIIGATA introduced the world’s first all-electric vertical IMM in 1996 and its latest model, the S7000, capitalises on NIIGATA’s long history and 100 per cent focus on making all-electric machines.
Highlights of the new MDVR110S7000 include:
- The NIIGATA patented vertical toggle system, which allows lowering the table height on this 110-tonne model to just 1.03. from the ground, including leveling pads.
- The machine's wider table, which is wider than than standard verticals, allowing larger moulds to be placed on the platen. The MDVR110S7000 boasts a mould size capacity of 500mm x 500mm.
- Fast table rotation of under one second.
- Ultra low-speed injection can be beneficial in moulding thicker walled insert jobs. NIIGATA boasts an ultra low-speed capability of just 0.01 mm/sec injection speed.
- With a 2-station machine running separate “A” and “B” mould halves, a moulder can often encounter problems with differences in mould halves causing part variations. With the NIIGATA Vertical, two completely independent injection profiles can be set for the “A” and “B” halves, allowing the moulder to finish the job without making expensive and time consuming mold repairs or adjustments.
Having introduced its first fully-electric machine at the Japan Plastics Fair in 1984, NIIGATA has devoted 100 per cent of its research and development resources toward improving all-electric moulding machine technology. Using the Japanese Kaizen system, NIIGATA is now introducing its seventh generation of the all-electric machine, built entirely in Japan to tough quality standards.
A few NEW features of the MD110S7000 all-electric IMM include:
- Elimination of moving platen’s lower side tie bar bushings to improve the cleanliness of the part drop area.
- Addition of an FDA-approved grease supply system that allows medical cleanroom and food grade applications with fewer worries about part contamination.
- NIIGATA’s standard high nozzle touch force, similar to that of the hydraulic machines, can now be dialed down when the application allows, to promote longer sprue bushing life.
- Fully automatic and adjustable mold clamping force is continuously monitored by tie bar sensors.
- NIIGATA’s horizontal machines boast the industry’s shortest footprint, but heaviest overall weight to provide superior machine durability.
Also at the NIIGATA booth
- NIIGATA MD385W6000 all-electric IMM, AKA the "workhorse machine", is being exhibited running a drink cup mould provided by a customer, together with an impressive IML system manufactured by Campetella.
- NIIGATA MD55S6000 all-electric IMM - the small size all-electric press - will be exhibited at the LUBE Corp booth. This machine will have clear covers, highlighting the automatic lube system of the machine.
