The Milacron L-Series is equipped with our industry-leading structural foam, structural web gas assist, and solid part molding technologies, extending the possibilities for large part design and conversion from other lower-volume processes.
For over fifty years, Milacron’s LPIM technology has been at the forefront of the low-pressure injection market, providing streamlined production of single or multiple ultra large plastic parts in a single cycle while protecting mold assets with a rugged clamp design. Wide-ranging molding flexibility and part design is possible through nozzle sequencing allowing multiple resins or colors,
The current generation of L-Series injection machinery improves performance and energy efficiency using the latest FANUC servo drive package and state of the art controls, simplifying operations, and streamlining production. Milacron offers easy solutions for product handling, quick mold change, resin loading and blending, gas controllers, hot runner controllers, and remote diagnostics and support through our M-Powered suite of software tools.
ADDITIONAL INFO
Ideal for molding ultra-large and thicker plastic parts, Milacron’s Structural Foam Technology produces parts with a solid surface and cellular foamed core, resulting in a high strength to weight ratio. This is achieved by introducing nitrogen gas in the resin melting phase which is then released from the resin within the interior of the part during injection into the mold, causing the part to completely form to its intended shape. Thicker wall sections and detailed part designs are achieved at much lower pressures than with conventional molding using simpler and lower cost aluminum molds.
