What is the difference between an all electric injection molding machine and hydraulic injection molding machine?

Electric injection molding machines consume energy only when required for a given action, og motor output is matched to meet requirements, unlike traditional hydraulic injection molding machines which use continuously consume energy even while idle.

Instead of being driven by a hydraulic system, electric injection molding machines are digitally controlled with high-speed and highly-efficient servo motors to drive the whole process. Each axis is controlled by an independent motor for injection, útpressun, clamping and ejection.

The outcome brings about a faster, cleaner, more repeatable and energy efficient injection molding process. Energy consumption for electric injection molding machines can be reduced by 50 til 75% compared to a hydraulic type.

Due to a recent rise in electricity bills in the industry, all electric injection molding machines have become more popular to save electricity costs ultimately leading to overall operational cost reduction.
