Massive new Hydraulic Toggle Injection Molding System device will offer significant enhancements to SKBs innovative product line. This device features high-efficiency electric servo pumps and is one of the most impressive machines of its kind currently in operation and one of the largest in the United States. The initial case production run will require a 27000-pound mold. The unit offers 2.25 million pounds of clamping pressure and a twin cylinder balanced injection system operation with a massive 405 oz. (25 pound) shot capacity. It features an 8-axis robot with a 44 pound payload rating and 175000 pound capacity permanent electro-magnetic (neodymium rare-earth) clamping platens. Recently delivered and installed at SKBs main factory, the new addition to SKBs equipment family weighed in at 225000 pounds.
