Product Descriptions
MULTI-INJECTION Hybrid Injection Molding Machines - Maximum Performance in Multi-Component Production
The Plastic Metal MULTI-INJECTION series represents advanced hybrid multi-component injection technology designed to mold two or more materials, colors, or polymers into a single integrated part within one production cycle. Developed on the Multipower platform, these systems deliver high productivity, repeatable quality, and energy efficiency for automotive, packaging, electronics, and technical plastic applications.
Multi-Injection machines are engineered to meet the growing demand for multi-material production in modern manufacturing, supporting advanced processes such as multi-component molding, over-molding, and co-injection.
Multi-Injection Technology Production Advantages
Multi-component injection enables different materials to be combined within a single part, reducing assembly requirements and enhancing product functionality. This approach shortens production processes, lowers costs, and increases design flexibility.
With single-cycle production:
assembly operations can be reduced by 30-50%
production time can be shortened by 20-40%
product durability and sealing performance improve
logistics and labor costs decrease
Machine Platform and Technical Capacity
Plastic Metal MULTI-INJECTION machines integrate hydraulic power with electric precision through a hybrid drive architecture.
Typical system configurations include:
2 or 3 independent injection units
parallel, angular, or vertical injection arrangements
sequential injection and rotary table integration
robot- and automation-ready machine architecture
Machine capacity ranges (depending on configuration):
clamping force: approximately 160 - 800+ tons
shot volume: from hundreds of cm³ to several thousand cm³
plasticizing capacity: tens to hundreds of kg/hour
injection performance suitable for high-speed thin-wall production
These specifications provide broad production flexibility for both precision technical components and multi-material consumer products.
Flexible Production with Multiple Injection Units
MULTI-INJECTION systems enable:
use of 2-3 different polymers within the same mould
bi-color and bi-material production
insert molding and over-molding applications
multi-layer structures with different hardness and surface properties
Rotary table systems and synchronized injection architecture ensure high cycle stability even with complex mould designs.
Precision and Process Control
In multi-component production, injection sequence, pressure, and temperature management are critical. The MULTI-INJECTION platform provides:
independently servo-controlled injection units
stable pressure and speed management
repeatable cycle performance
low-vibration motion systems
ensuring consistent quality in continuous production environments.
Energy-Efficient Hybrid Technology
The hybrid drive system offers:
