- Vitesse Injection Moulding Machine
VITESSE 300: The new high-performance series VITESSE from
Ferromatik Milacron is available with clamping forces of 2,000, 3,000,
4,000 and 5,000 kN
The VITESSE continues the story of the superfast high-performance
injection moulding machines from Ferromatik Milacron. The VITESSE is available
with clamping forces of 2,000, 3,000, 4,000 and 5,000 kN, and with injection
units of international size ranging from 1,000 to 4,400. The French word
VITESSE stands for speed, which is precisely what makes this machine so
outstanding. The electric screw drive of the VITESSE permits parallel
functions, resulting in extremely short cycle times. The necessary stability
for the high dynamics is supplied by a reinforced machine base with linear
guides.
Die VITESSE is the further development of the CAP-TEC and CAP-TEC XL. The CAP-TEC was introduced on the market in 2006 as a high-performance injection moulding machine for caps and closures. Due to strong demand the CAP-TEC was then supplemented by an XL-version for all types of packaging, such as lids, buckets, thin-wall articles and In-Mould-Labelling applications. The VITESSE now goes a step further and covers more than the entire application range of the CAP-TEC and CAP-TEC XL with a single machine. The VITESSE also covers other industrial sectors such as the consumer goods industry. In response to market requirements Ferromatik have also extended the clamping force range with a 5,000 kN version.

The VITESSE will be seen in a wide range of packaging applications. A
VITESSE 200 with 2,000 kN clamping force produces an egg box in a single-cavity
AWM mould at a cycle time of 1.9 seconds.
The VITESSE also includes Ferromatik Milacron's TELESERVICE for remote-maintenance of machines and optimization of production processes. Utilizing up to date secure IP communication to any location on earth, where there is Internet connectivity.
A 72-cavity mould from KTW on a VITESSE 300 with a clamping force of 3,000 kN produces closures at a cycle time of 2.6 seconds.
A VITESSE 400 with a clamping force of 4,000 kN is used as a manufacturing cell with an In-Mold-Labeling system from Star Automation. The machine produces bucket lids in a 2-cavity Abate Basilio mould with the In-Mould-Labelling process at a cycle time of 5 seconds.
