Structure and working principle:
Vertical injection molding machine: The injection device and the clamping device are on the same vertical center line, and the mold opens and closes in the vertical direction. This design occupies a small area and is suitable for occasions with limited space.
Horizontal injection molding machine: The injection device and the clamping device are on the same horizontal line, and the mold opens and closes in the horizontal direction. Suitable for the production of larger products, especially products with automatic demolding.
Applicable scenarios:
Vertical injection molding machine: Suitable for the production of products with inserts or requiring secondary injection molding, such as mobile phone chargers, plugs, etc. Its open design facilitates the configuration of automated devices and is suitable for small batch production.
Horizontal injection molding machine: Suitable for the production of pure plastic products, especially large, regular-shaped products, such as soles, containers, etc. High production efficiency, suitable for large-scale production.
Advantages and disadvantages:
Vertical injection molding machine: The advantage is that it occupies a small area, is suitable for small batch production, and is easy to configure automated devices. The disadvantage is that the machine adjustment is relatively complicated.
Horizontal injection molding machine: The advantage is high production efficiency, suitable for large-scale production, and simple operation. The disadvantage is that it occupies a large area and is suitable for large products.
Price and floor space:
Vertical injection molding machine: Usually the price is lower, the floor space is small, and it is suitable for small factories or laboratories.
Horizontal injection molding machine: The price is higher, the floor space is large, and it is suitable for large-scale production needs
