Yizumi at Chinaplas 2019
Chinaplas returns this week and is being held in Guangzhou, in the south of the country which is very close to one of Yizumi’s main manufacturing bases. Richard from STV Machinery is attending the exhibition and will be given insight into Yizumi’s innovative new developments ahead of the exhibition and meeting up with customers from the UK. Yizumi’s exhibition stand will be located in hall 3, section F41 at the China import & export fair complex. Ahead of the first day of the exhibition, Yizumi have provided further details about the technology they will displaying at the exhibition;
ReactPro
Using a Yizumi 500 tonne clamp dual platen machine, this exhibition will be demonstrating technology which allows for in-mould coating using polyurethane as well as utilising a ‘Space A’ system. This ‘Space A’ technology is used to effectively print a layer of sealing onto the part. We’ll be looking at this technology with interest and hopefully providing further insight with some media.
Multi-component Solution
With the use of a 550 tonne clamp C-Series wide platen machine, this demonstration shows off the twin-shot capabilities of Yizumi machines. Producing an automotive tail light cover with two applications of PMMA in a 2+2 cavity setup, visitors will be able to see the quality and tight tolerances achievable with this series of machine.
PacPro
Running at cycle time of 2.5 seconds, this demonstration of high speed and high precision capability shows off the potential of the Yizumi PAC series range of machinery. In conjunction with a Switek side entry robot and in mould labelling system, the setup will be moulding 4 cavities with PP very quickly and efficiently.
FF Series Electric injection moulding machine
This highly efficient and precise electric moulding machine will be producing a medical part with an 8 cavity mould using PP. Utilising the performance of the servo direct control, the application will be running on a shorter cycle time compared to traditional machines while achieving a saving a in energy costs.
Along with the technology above on display at the main event, Yizumi are also running an open house at the same time as the exhibition. At their main showroom, they will be exhibiting an additional 16 production solutions from their full range of machinery. Customers wishing to inspect the additional solutions are able to do so by speaking with a Yizumi representative who will arrange for transport to and from the manufacturing facility. A great opportunity to see behind the scenes and Richard will taking a closer look himself on Thursday.
If you’re attending the Chinaplas event and would like some further information about the Yizumi range of machinery then do please ask for Richard on the Yizumi stand and he’ll be happy to guide you through the technology on display.
In house energy test completed
We’ve recently tested a Yizumi UN60A5 (60T) machine against a machine manufactured in 2006 which is due to be refurbished. The results are very interesting and further information can be found by clicking here

STV Machinery and Adept precision collaboration
Adept Precision take refurbished route to lower start-up machinery investment
Installation of a refurbished mix of injection moulding machinery and ancillaries has given Plunkett Associates, which sourced tooling and moulding from the UK and the Far East for many years, a lower initial investment when it needed to shorten lead times on competitively priced development, short run tooling and the capability of making parts in production materials. Unable to find exactly the solution they wanted, they made the decision to expand their already established business.

What’s black and green, 6 metres high, 27 metres long, covers an overall area in excess of 3 badminton courts, and has another internal stat that refers to elephants?
We can’t yet reveal the customer who is taking delivery of this huge YIZUMI injection moulding machine and the parts it will be moulding are new to the market. But here are a few details:
The machine, which took 4 months to build, has dual injection units, each with 270mm screws. It has a massive combined shot weight of 147,490g in GPPS. It uses over 8000kN of force just to open the platens, which can open to 4.5m. This is a record for YIZUMI.
The distance between the tie bars is 3.2m.
A single platen weighs 140 tonnes which equates to the average weight of 23 Asian elephants.
On test, huge as it is, the machine still saved more than 30% energy when compared to a traditional toggle lock machine, running on smart servo drive technology. This allows the machine to be in low-power standby mode during the longer cooling time for the larger products it produces.
Compression moulding technology is used, which can effectively reduce the internal stress which ordinarily may be an issue causing deformation of larger sized products.
All the skill which has gone into designing and building this huge injection moulding machine is obviously available throughout the YIZUMI range and we have various models here at STV Machinery, ready and waiting for your inspection. Please contact us to make an appointment to view and test.
