TOYO on show their new all electric injection molding machine SI-230-7GS with turn-key solutions of lock-box injection molding and have the box and lid picked by a Runma high speed 3 axis servo injection robot at PlastImagen 2025.

TOYO SI-230-7GS is the 7^th all electric injection molding machine with clamping force 2300kN and optional injection speed from 200mm/s ~ 500mm/s for the precise injection of thick wall parts or high speed injection of the thin-wall containers. The solution on show PlastImagen 2025 is a turn-key solution of Lock-Lock box which has the box and lid of the box integrated into one mold. The advantage of this design is that it will ensure the same parameters of box and lid injection and ensure a perfect match of them.

In the show of PlastImagen 2025 TOYO chose to have the box and lid picked with a Rumma high speed 3 axis servo injection robot. With a mold which integrated the box and lid the producer of the Lock-Lock and easily upgrad it to an automation system of which chan either stack the box and lids to have them packed in bundle or have the box and lid locked automatically and packed as one set.

The more rewarding investment would be to have the TOYO SI-230-7GS equipped with a G370F or FH400F injection unit to increase the injection speed of it up to 330/500 mm/s as a high speed all electric injection molding machine to work with SWITEK SW8 series high speed IML robot for the production of small size IML Yogurt cups. With an injection unit of FH400F the TOYO SI-230-7GS + SWITEK SW8 IML robot combination is possible to work in a total cycle time of around 5s, which would be a rewarding investment to the producer of the IML Yogurt cups.

HMD368M8-SPV is the 5^th generation of high speed injection molding machine by Ningbo Hwamda Machinery Co., Ltd. Which is one of the best buy injection molding machines among the producer of thin-wall containers with excellent injection speed, injection precision and competitive price. The clampling force of the HMD SPV series injection molding machine ranging from 2700Kn to 530Kn of which is the most popular injection molding machine for thin-wall containers, say 500ml cups from 4 cavities ~ 16 cavities. So, for a new thin-wall containers producer, how to choose a robot for HMD SPV series of high speed injection molding machine?

High Speed 3 Axis Servo Injection Robot

As a high speed injection molding machine, the buyers of HMD368M8-SPV mostly would be the producer of thin-wall containers of which the injection cycle time would be around 4~7s and the weight of the parts would not be much. In this case it'll request that the robot must be a high speed one. That's why we recommend SW7112DS, the high speed 3 axis injection robot by SWITEK Automation.

As a high speed 3 axis servo injection robot custom made for the thin-wall containers, the dry cycle time of SW7112DS was reduced to 3.3s only with an in minimum in mold time of 0.7s for box picking. With minor adjustment of the strokes, it's suitable for injection molding machine with clamping force from 150T ~ 550T, perfectly match the picking and stacking application of the HMD SPV series high speed injection molding machine.
