Milacron Completes a Successful Indiaplast 2019 Trade Show

CINCINNATI--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Milacron Holdings Corp. (NYSE: MCRN), a leading industrial technology company serving the plastics processing industry, was pleased to attend this year’s edition of the Indiaplast trade show February 28th - March 4th in Greater Noida, just outside India’s capital city, New Delhi. Milacron displayed their industry-leading Milacron injection machinery, Mold-Masters hot runners and controls systems as well as Milacron Extrusion machinery in Hall 11 Booth B1.

The Indian plastics processing market continues to be a key geographical area of focus for Milacron’s brands both for sales and manufacturing capabilities. Milacron’s manufacturing plant in Ahmedabad has experienced significant growth and continues to expand in order to meet both local and international demand. Meanwhile, the Milacron hot runner product brand Mold-Masters based in Coimbatore recently moved into a new 40,000 sq. ft. building in August 2018. The new facility houses Milacron engineering and shared services associates and offers support to the entire Milacron organization globally. Tom Goeke, Milacron President, and CEO stated, “Milacron was proud to participate in Indiaplast 2019. This year’s show was a great opportunity for the Indian market to see the capabilities of Milacron’s injection, extrusion, and hot runner portfolio. We have many loyal customers in India, and a show like this allows us to further demonstrate the Milacron advantage. Milacron will continue our focus on the growing Indian market and manufacturing leading industry technology.”

Below you’ll find a sampling of some of the technologies that were on display from Milacron at Indiaplast 2019.

The NEW Milacron Q-Series Injection Molding Machine Line – Two Q-Series Machines, a 180T and 280T, Ran Live at Indiaplast

Milacron’s new Q-Series is the latest globally available servo-hydraulic injection molding machine that builds on the success of the 2017 launch of the Quantum injection machine line, but offers a number of enhancements. With a tonnage range of 55 to 610 (50-500 KN), the Q-Series is built to perform in a wide array of applications and configurations. Based on Milacron’s highly touted, reliable and in-demand Magna Toggle and F-Series machine lines, the Q-Series is a true culmination of high efficiency, consistency, and globally engineered technology.

Q-Series has been designed to fit the high expectations of toggle performance while providing an extraordinary value. Leveraging the use of a servo motor in combination with hydraulic components, Q-Series provides exceptional repeatability and energy savings. The clamp kinematics provide enhanced velocities while delivering a smooth and accurate operation. The clamp design provides for better tonnage linearity allowing minimum tonnage to go lower than previous toggle designs. The servo motor and hydraulic systems combine to deliver power when it is needed, using less power when it is not. The eco-friendly design generates savings in electrical power consumption, cooling requirements, and lower maintenance cost.

The Q-Series is also available as part of Milacron’s Quick Delivery Program (QDP) in Europe and North America and is part of the Milacron's 2019 injection product refresh.

Cell Details – Q-Series 180T: Molded a PET medical vial, 32-cavities, total shot weight of 115.5 grams and a part weight of 3.6 grams, running at 7-second cycles.

Cell Details – Q-Series 280T: Molded a 100 ml PP cup with in-mold labeling, 4+4 stack mold, total shot weight of 48 grams and a part weight of 6, running at 6-second cycles.

Milacron recognizes and embraces the importance and rapid adoption of bio-resins in both injection molding and extrusion applications. The entire Milacron injection line-up, as well as all Milacron Extrusion machines, have successfully processed a wide range of bio-resins and are ready to process the newest and most demanding resins.

Milacron India Showcases IIoT solution – M-Powered for India - Designed Especially for the Indian Market

Milacron has created a one-of-a-kind IIoT solution for its India based customers to utilize a portfolio of easy-to-use observational, analytical and support services that gives molders a competitive advantage through insight. Leveraging Internet of Things (IoT) technology, Milacron M-Powered for India provides unique intelligence on current operations and future needs, sharpens manufacturing quality and productivity, and optimizes uptime. M-Powered for India will allow molders to measure, identify, implement, improve and increase operations.

Mold-Masters has rolled out many additions and enhancements to Fusion Series G2, the drop-in system favored by the automotive industry for high-quality large part production, which includes an expanded nozzle range and waterless actuator technology. New for the Fusion Series G2 are the F3000 and F8000 nozzles, which extend the capabilities and applications of this system to include shot sizes from <15g to over 5,000g. The F3000 has a shot capacity of <15g, which is ideal for smaller underhood components, technical automotive components and price sensitive packaging and consumer good applications. The F8000 increases the shot capacity of the system further than ever before to 5,000g by utilizing runner diameters up to 28mm. Nozzle lengths are also available that exceed 1m. F8000 has been developed to meet the processing requirements of common large automotive components like Fascias, Instrument Panels, Door Panels, and large white goods. Additionally, Fusion Series G2 systems will also be available with the new Waterless Actuator, which incorporates new Passive Actuator Cooling Technology (PACT); eliminating hose-plumbed cooling circuits allows for the actuators to facilitate faster mold changes and provide long-term performance reliability.

Maximized for uptime, the Fusion Series G2 hot runner system is delivered completely pre-assembled and pre-plumbed, saving significant set-up time to get you back into production right away. Incorporating popular features like field replaceable heater bands ensures that any maintenance is quick and easy.
