How many types of Plastic Crate Injection Machine?

Types of Plastic Crate Injection Machine Classification by:

  • structural form 
  • drive mode
  • plasticization method
  • use
  • the size of the clamping force

Plastic crates as the kind of low-margin product made with recycled material, it requires high production efficiency of the machines.

Powerjet has developed a special series for product like fruit crates.

The Plastic Crates Injection Molding Machine works perfectly well with the crate molds, ensuring higher production capability and stable product quality.

Plastic crate injection machine have many types,which can be divided into many types according to different classification standards.

Plastic Crate Injection Molding Machine

Classification by structural form

Vertical injection molding machine

suitable for the molding of small plastic products, with the advantages of mould opening and closing, easy to realize insert molding, etc.

Horizontal injection molding machine

suitable for large products, the product can fall automatically, convenient feeding, easy maintenance.

Materials for making plastic crates

Classification by drive mode

Hydraulic injection molding machine

It has the advantages of large clamping force, long clamping and holding time.

All-electric injection molding machine

To achieve all-electric drive, with the characteristics of high efficiency and high precision.

Electro-hydraulic hybrid injection molding machine

Combines the advantages of hydraulic and electric and is widely used in the market.

Classification by plasticization method

Plunger injection molding machine

The molten plastic is pushed forward by the reciprocating motion of the plunger in the barrel, which is suitable for plastic parts with poor fluidity and strong heat sensitivity.

Screw injection molding machine

Relying on screw for plasticization and injection, with good mixing and plasticization, it is the most used type at present.

Factors in the selection of Plastic Crate Injection Machine

Choosing the right type of plastic crate injection machine requires a comprehensive consideration of multiple factors:

  • Production demand and capacity
  • Product dimensions and weight
  • Plastic material types and properties
  • Choose the right shot volume and clamping force
  • Consider technical and functional needs
  • Quality & Reliability
  • Cost vs. Budget
  • Consult with the manufacturer or professional

Production demand and capacity

First of all, the daily or hourly production volume and speed need to be defined to determine the capacity range of the plastic crate injection machine required.

Product dimensions and weight

Ensure that the selected plastic crate injection machine can adapt to the size and weight requirements of the product and avoid mould size limitations.

Plastic material types and properties

Depending on the type of plastic material (e.g. thermoplasticity, thermoset) and characteristics (e.g. density, viscosity and thermal stability).

The matching plastic crate injection machine parameters and control methods are selected.

For example, engineering plastics may require higher injection pressures and screw compression ratios.

plastic baskets and crates

Choose the right shot volume and clamping force

The injection amount is determined according to the weight of the finished product and the number of cavities.

Which is usually more than 1.35 times the weight of the finished product.

At the same time, the clamping force is calculated to ensure that the mould is not stretched.

Consider technical and functional needs

Choose a state-of-the-art injection molding machine with features.

Such as automated control systems, temperature control, and quick mould changes for your specific needs.

Quality & Reliability

Choose products from well-known manufacturers with good reputation and perfect after-sales service to ensure machine durability and stability.

Cost vs. Budget

Balance price and performance, and choose a cost-effective plastic crate injection machine according to your budget.

Consult with the manufacturer or professional

Consult with manufacturers and industry experts to get expert advice when making your choice to ensure you make an informed decision.
