FAQs / Buyer Questions
The answers our engineers give most often about the PVDL Series 40 Ton, before a specification is agreed.
What Is the PVDL Series 40 Ton Vertical Injection Moulding Machine?
It is a vertical injection moulding machine from Pratishna Engineers with a vertical clamp with a vertical injection unit and an upward-facing lower mould for loading inserts. It is the smallest PVDL Series model, built for plug pins, terminals and small single-insert parts.What Can I Manufacture on a 40 Ton PVDL Series Machine?
Typical parts include plug pins and small terminals, small parts with brass inserts, needle and catheter hubs and small sensor parts.How Do I Know if the 40 Ton Is Right for My Part?
The choice depends on the part and insert size, shot weight, number of cavities and mould size. Share your part drawing and insert details and Pratishna Engineers will confirm whether the 40 Ton is suitable.Why Choose a Vertical Clamp Machine?
With the lower mould facing upward, inserts rest in position under gravity and do not fall out before the mould closes, so loading is faster and safer than on a horizontal machine.
What Plastic Materials Can the 40 Ton Process?
PP, PVC, ABS, PC, nylon, PBT, POM and TPE, including flame-retardant and glass-filled grades for electrical parts, with the screw and barrel matched to the material.If 40 Ton Is Not the Right Size, What Other Options Are There?
The PVDL Series also offers 60 Ton and 80 Ton. For cables and inserts that pass through the mould, the PV Series is available in 40 and 55 tons.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 PVDL Series 40 Ton?
Share your part drawing, insert details, material, part weight, mould dimensions, cavities, production quantity and cycle time, and Pratishna Engineers will evaluate the configuration and provide a quotation.
