The Arburg 470S is a used injection moulding machine — also referred to as a plastic injection press — dating from 2005 and currently located in Portugal. Injection moulding machines of this type are used to produce plastic components by injecting molten material under high pressure into a closed mould, making them a core piece of equipment in plastics processing across automotive, consumer goods, packaging, medical, and industrial manufacturing. Arburg is a well-established German manufacturer with a long-standing reputation for precision injection moulding technology and is widely recognised across the global plastics industry.
The machine develops a closing force of 1,300 kN (130 tonnes), with a tie-bar spacing of 470 × 470 mm and a column spacing of 1,120 × 1,120 mm. The opening stroke is 575 mm and the minimum mould height is 275 mm, giving a clear indication of the mould envelope this machine can accommodate.
On the injection side, the primary screw diameter is 35 mm, with 40 mm and 50 mm screws also available for the unit. The injection volume is 139 cm³, and the shot weight in polystyrene is in the range of 117 to 166 g depending on screw configuration. Injection pressure reaches up to 2,500 bar. An estimated total injection volume of 6,220 cm³ (approximately 6.2 litres) is noted in the seller's data for reference.
The machine is equipped with Arburg's SeLogica CNC control system, which is the brand's proprietary process control platform offering comprehensive management of injection, clamping, and auxiliary functions. A Euromap-12 interface is present, enabling connection to peripheral automation equipment such as robotic handling systems. The seller notes that additional options including robotics and hot-runner systems may be available.
Power specifications include a pump motor rated at 48 kW and a total installed power of 158 kW. The machine weighs approximately 4,500 kg. As with all used equipment, prospective buyers are advised to verify all technical specifications and condition details in person prior to purchase.
