Wilmington, N.C. — Wilmington Machinery has introduced a low-pressure pallet injection molding machine that accepts 100 percent recycled plastic, even in flake form, which enables it to produce low-cost products.
The Lumina Pallateer Model PM-1C comes with a press with 350 tons of clamp force capable of molding pallets up to 48 inches by 52 inches in size and 40 pounds. With a high density polyethylene melting capacity of 1,200 pounds per hour, it can produce 30 pallets per hour.
The machine has a two-stage injection unit, bimetallic barrels, long-life feed screws and an option for a classic structural foam multi-nozzle injection manifold.
The new PM-1C joins Wilmington’s lineup of horizontal and vertical machines with press capacities to 2500 tons, injection capacities to 300 pounds and melting capacities to 6,000 pounds per hour.
