FAQs / Buyer Questions
The answers our engineers give most often about the 220 Ton, before a specification is agreed.
What Is the C Series 220 Ton Injection Moulding Machine?
It is a horizontal plastic injection moulding machine from Pratishna Engineers, built for thin-wall containers, IML tubs, lids and small pails.What Can I Manufacture on a 220 Ton Container Machine?
Typical products include iml tubs and lids, ice cream containers, thin-wall food containers up to about 1 litre, square tubs of 1 to 2 litres and small paint pails and lids.How Do I Know if 220 Ton Is Enough for My Container?
Required clamping force depends on the projected area of all cavities, wall thickness, flow length and material, with a safety factor. Thin-wall parts need more pressure and clamp margin than their weight suggests. Share your container and mould details and Pratishna Engineers will confirm whether the 220 Ton is suitable.What Are the Screw Options on the C Series 220 Ton?
The 220 Ton is available with three screws: the 45 mm screw gives a 343 g shot at up to 2,178 kg/cm² and 143 cc/sec; the 50 mm screw gives a 424 g shot at up to 1,764 kg/cm² and 177 cc/sec; the 55 mm screw gives a 513 g shot at up to 1,599 kg/cm² and 214 cc/sec. Clamping, ejector and general specifications are common to all screw options.What Mould Size Fits the 220 Ton?
The 220 Ton takes moulds 200 to 575 mm thick within a tie-bar space of 540 × 517 mm, on platens of 840 × 800 mm, with a 1035 mm daylight opening and 150 mm ejector stroke.
What Plastic Materials Can the 220 Ton Machine Process?
Depending on configuration, it can process PP copolymer, high-flow PP, HDPE, LDPE, PS and other thermoplastics used in packaging, as well as engineering plastics.If 220 Ton Is Not the Right Size, What Other Options Are There?
The C Series also offers 140 Ton, 180 Ton, 260 Ton and 320 Ton models. Larger pails and containers can move to the PHM Series two platen machines, and smaller parts to the E Series.Does Pratishna Provide Installation and After-Sales Support?
Yes. Installation, commissioning, operator training, spare parts and after-sales technical support are provided as part of Pratishna’s machine lifecycle services.How Do I Get a Price for the C Series 220 Ton?
Share your container drawing, material, part weight, mould dimensions, cavities, production quantity and cycle time, and Pratishna Engineers will evaluate the configuration and provide a quotation.
