Does anyone have an opinion on good brands of electric injection molding machines in the 250 ton range?

Cliff, I used to represent the Haitian line of injection molding machines from Ningbo. Their electric "Venus" line is manufactured with their German counterpart Zahfir. These are solid machines with excellent pricing. I can put you in touch with the right people if you want more info. Thanks, Paul Veltri 248.866.8557

Hi Cliff
Krauss Maffei can offer very good solutions in All Electric Injection molding machines upto 240 tons.

Are you looking for price or reliability?

I think Sumitomo is better for the electric one, KM or arbug is good at the hydraulic

Maruka Toyo has a 250 U.S. ton all electric machine, Si-250IV. 13, 17 and 21 ounce units are usually in stock. Min Mold: 9.84".

Toyo, JSW, Nissei, Niigata, Toshiba are good all electric machines.

Cliff, it depends on the business, Say very precision and for good reliability i strongly recommend Sumitomo especially when we choose the process of Compression injection moulding technology it's performances are so amazing, Also the Toyo, JSW too good for electric injection moulding machine
