This Krauss Maffei CX is a used injection moulding machine — sometimes referred to as an injection moulding press — manufactured in 2011 and currently located in Germany. Injection moulding machines are used to produce plastic components by injecting molten material into a mould under high pressure, making them a cornerstone of high-volume plastic parts manufacturing. Krauss Maffei is a well-established German manufacturer with a long history of producing machinery for the plastics processing industry, including injection moulding, extrusion, and reaction processing equipment, serving sectors ranging from automotive and packaging to consumer goods and medical technology.
The machine is hydraulically driven and delivers a clamping force of 4,200 kN, with a mould opening force of 249.6 kN and moving platen forces of 124.7 kN (open) and 102.4 kN (close). The platen dimensions measure 1,270 × 1,200 mm, with a tie-bar spacing of 800 × 800 mm — a practical indicator of the maximum mould footprint the machine can accept. The mould opening stroke is 1,020 mm and the platen opening stroke extends to 1,400 mm, while the minimum mould height is 380 mm. The ejector stroke is 250 mm.
On the injection side, the machine is fitted with an 80 mm diameter screw and achieves a maximum injection pressure of 1,856 bar. The injection volume is 1,608 cm³ and the injection rate reaches 478 cm³/s, with a maximum shot weight of 1,464 g based on polystyrene. The nozzle has a tip radius of 15 mm and an orifice diameter of 6 mm. The barrel features seven heating zones, with an installed heating power of 36 kW.
The machine is controlled by a Krauss Maffei MC5 system, specifically version 3.3, which is a well-regarded control platform in the industry. The rated pump motor power is 75 kW and the electrical supply is 400 V / 3N~ / 50 Hz, consistent with standard European industrial supply. The machine achieves a dry cycle rate of 1,200 cycles per hour according to Euromap 6 methodology, reflecting strong productivity potential for high-volume applications. The machine is finished in grey, white, and blue.
