This Arburg 470 C is a used injection molding machine — sometimes referred to as a plastic injection press — designed to produce precision plastic components by injecting molten material into a mold under high pressure. Arburg is a well-established German manufacturer with a long-standing reputation in the plastics processing industry, supplying injection molding equipment to automotive, medical, packaging, and consumer goods sectors worldwide.
The machine is being sold in a defective condition: the hydraulic pump and a control card have been removed, and buyers should factor in the cost of sourcing and fitting replacement parts before the machine can be returned to operation. Aside from these missing components, the seller describes the overall condition as very good. The pump hour meter reads 61,400 hours, giving an indication of the machine's service history.
On the clamping side, the machine delivers a clamping force of 1,600 kN, with a clear column spacing of 470 × 470 mm — the usable space between the tie bars that determines the maximum mold width that can be accommodated. The ejector stroke measures 225 mm, which governs how far finished parts can be pushed clear of the mold.
The injection unit is equipped with a 50 mm screw diameter and offers a shot displacement of 398 cm³, reflecting the maximum volume of material that can be injected in a single cycle. These figures are relevant when matching the machine to specific part sizes and material throughput requirements.
The machine has an overall footprint of 4,335 × 1,635 × 1,950 mm and a total weight of 6,950 kg. It is located in Germany and is offered without any peripheral equipment. Transport and loading across Europe can be arranged at additional cost. Trade-in or part-exchange against other machinery is stated as an option by the seller. VAT is applicable to the sale price.
