This Sandretto Serie is a used injection moulding machine — also referred to as an injection moulding press — built in 1993 and currently located in Portugal. Injection moulding machines are used to produce plastic components by injecting molten material under high pressure into a closed mould, making them a fundamental tool across the automotive, packaging, consumer goods, and industrial plastics sectors. Sandretto is a well-established Italian manufacturer with a long history of producing injection moulding equipment for plastics processors worldwide.
The machine delivers a closing force of 350 tonnes (3,500 kN), a figure that defines the scale of parts and mould sizes it can handle. The tie-bar spacing is 470 × 470 mm, while the column spacing is 600 × 600 mm. Mould height can range from 200 mm to 650 mm, with a minimum mould height of 275 mm. The opening stroke is 575 mm, with an opening course of 600 mm, giving adequate daylight for a wide range of mould configurations.
On the injection side, the screw diameter is 35 mm as standard, with 40 mm and 50 mm options noted. The screw operates at an L/D ratio of 20:1. Injection volume is 139 cm³ per shot, with a shot weight of 117 to 166 g in polystyrene. Injection pressure reaches up to 2,500 bar. An estimated injection volume figure of 6,220 cm³ (approximately 6.2 litres) is also noted in the seller's data, though buyers should verify the basis of this figure during inspection.
The heating system provides approximately 23 kW of heating power across four zones. The hydraulic system is driven by a pump motor rated at 48 kW, and total installed power is stated at 158 kW. Machine weight is listed as 14,500 kg in one data point and 4,500 kg in another; these figures are inconsistent and should be confirmed on inspection.
The machine is equipped with a SeLogica CNC control system, Sandretto's dedicated process control platform. A Euromap 12 robot interface is available, and a Euromap 32 interface is also referenced, enabling connection to peripheral automation equipment. The seller indicates that additional options such as robotics, hot-runner systems, and further Euromap-compatible accessories may be available. The machine is offered in used condition, and prospective buyers are advised to verify all specifications against the actual equipment prior to purchase.
