A growing electric accessories company in Pune recently opted to produce MCB housings in-house instead of using open sourcing. Initially, the question for them was not “which machine should we use?” but rather “who will support us with our machine in fifteen years?” The injection molding machine suppliers have many different manufacturers (domestic and international) who are now producing their products locally. The type of injection molding machine that you decide to purchase will have a direct effect on the parts’ overall quality, cycle time, energy cost, and the amount of available service that you may expect from the supplier when you need help at some ungodly hour of the morning (like at 2 AM) when the machine controller’s board fails or worse. Before making this capital investment (which can be expected to return for several decades), learn about which injection molding machine manufacturers are leading in their field and in which areas of injection molding machine manufacturing each are strongest.<\/p>\n

The Indian Injection Molding Machine Market at a Glance<\/h2>\n

Injection molding is one of the fastest-growing markets around the world, increasing mainly thanks to the expansion of India’s domestic production, such as on automotive, packaging, medical, and electrical industry areas. The types of suppliers to buyers in India are made up of totally local suppliers, multinationals that have set up their factories as subsidiaries within India and, to less extent, imports from China and Taiwan. Machines in the injection molding industry include hydraulic, hybrid and all-electric types and there is a large variety of clamping forces from very small (a few tonnes) to very large (over 4000 tonnes) depending upon the type or weight of the plastic part that is being made. For electrical component manufacturing (e.g., for MCB bodies, switch plates, contact carriers, enclosure shells) the most common range of clamping forces is from 80 to 350 tonnes where speed, accuracy, and repeatability are very important vs. just sheer clamping force. For an understanding of how these moulded components fit into the broader automation landscape, our overview of what automation is<\/a> provides context on the complete production line.<\/p>\n
