What is a commercial injection moulding machine?
An injection moulding machine melts plastic granules and injects the melt under pressure into a closed steel mould. It has an injection unit, where a screw turns and moves inside a heated barrel to melt and push the plastic, and a clamping unit, where platens and tie bars hold the mould shut against the injection pressure. The part cools, the mould opens, the part is ejected and the cycle repeats. Moulders use these machines to make packaging, automotive, consumer and medical parts in large numbers. Machines are rated mainly by clamping force and shot size, and they differ in how the axes are driven: hydraulic, servo-hydraulic, hybrid or all-electric.
This page covers industrial injection moulding machines for moulders and plastic product makers; small bench-top and hobby machines are not covered.
How diipl verifies injection moulding machine manufacturers
diipl checks every injection moulding machine manufacturer before a buyer meets them. Every seller is GSTIN verified and capacity audited. IEC and the certifications your product and market need (ISO, CE, REACH, BIS) are confirmed before any meeting; Certificate of Origin and EIC inspection are arranged per shipment where required.
For injection moulding machines, the capacity audit also covers:
- Machining of platens, tie bars and toggle parts in-house or with approved vendors, with inspection of flatness and parallelism
- An assembly and test bay where machines are run with a test mould at rated clamping force before dispatch
- Hydraulic power pack assembly with leak testing, and calibration of pressure and position sensors
- Electrical panel and controller assembly, with testing of safety interlocks and emergency stops
- Screw and barrel supply or manufacture, with checks on hardness and surface finish
We match your requirement to a manufacturer that has passed these checks and arrange a direct meeting.
Types of injection moulding machines we cover
Indian injection moulding machine manufacturers on the diipl bench build these commercial and industrial types.
| Type | Typical buyers |
|---|---|
| Hydraulic injection moulding machine | General-purpose moulders |
| Servo-hydraulic (servo pump) machine | Moulders running hydraulic machines who want lower energy use |
| All-electric injection moulding machine | Moulders making precise parts or working in clean production areas |
| Hybrid injection moulding machine | Packaging moulders and others who need fast cycles |
| Vertical injection moulding machine | Moulders doing insert moulding |
| Two-shot (multi-component) machine | Moulders making soft-touch or multi-colour parts |
Hydraulic injection moulding machine
Pumps and cylinders drive the machine axes. One maker's hydraulic series offers pump options from a single-circuit pump for standard processes to a double-circuit pump or accumulator for short cycles, in clamping forces up to about 5000 kN. Choose it for general moulding where you want a wide range of sizes.
Servo-hydraulic (servo pump) machine
A hydraulic machine whose pump is driven by a servo motor and drive instead of running at a fixed speed. A trade article explains that the pump then does not need to run during idle parts of the cycle and can slow down and restart quickly, so less energy turns into heat. Choose it to cut idle energy use on a hydraulic machine.
All-electric injection moulding machine
Servo-electric drives move the axes through ball screw or planetary roller screw drives. One maker describes its electric series as quiet, precise and suited to clean production environments, and offers clamping forces from about 350 to 5000 kN. Choose it where precision, low noise and clean production matter.
Hybrid injection moulding machine
Combines electric and hydraulic drives. One maker's hybrid series pairs a servo-electric clamping unit with a hydraulic injection unit that uses an accumulator, with servo-electric dosing, at clamping forces from about 600 to 6500 kN. A packaging version makes thin-walled cups and tubs. Choose it when fast cycles and low energy use both matter, as in packaging.
Vertical injection moulding machine
Most injection moulding machines are horizontal. In a vertical machine the mould closes vertically, which lets the machine use gravity in niche jobs such as insert moulding. Some vertical machines do not need the mould to be fastened. Choose it when inserts are placed into the mould before each shot.
Two-shot (multi-component) machine
Two-shot or multi-shot moulding puts two materials or colours into one part in a single moulding cycle. It must be run on a specialised machine with two or more injection units. It is used to give knobs a soft touch or to make multi-colour parts. Choose it when one part needs more than one material or colour without a second operation.
What to specify when buying an injection moulding machine
A clear injection moulding machine specification gets you comparable offers and a faster meeting. Share these points with diipl and we match them to the right manufacturer.
| What to specify | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| Clamping force (tonnage) | Holds the mould shut against injection pressure. It depends on the projected area of the part and the plastic used. Machines are rated in tonnes or kN, so confirm the unit in every quote. |
| Shot weight or shot volume, for a stated plastic | The data sheet gives the largest shot the injection unit can deliver. Check it against the part weight plus runner, with margin, and ask for the rating in grams for your resin. |
| Screw diameter options and screw length to diameter ratio | Screw size affects shot volume, melt quality and throughput. Data sheets list several screw diameters for one machine, so choose the one that suits your resin and shot size. |
| Distance between tie bars and platen size | Tie-bar spacing sets the largest mould that fits. Check mould width and height against the tie-bar distance, not only the platen size. |
| Mould height range, opening stroke and platen daylight | Your mould thickness and the stroke needed to eject and remove the part must fit within these values. Data sheets list them as ranges. |
| Injection pressure and injection speed | Mould filling depends on both. State the thinnest wall and the longest flow path in your parts and ask for the maximum values and the injection profile control. |
| Drive type for each axis (clamp, injection, screw rotation, ejector) | Hydraulic, hybrid and all-electric machines differ in energy use, noise and precision. The names are not used the same way by every maker, so ask for the drive of each axis in writing. |
| Dry cycle time at a stated stroke | Shows how fast the machine moves without plastic. Makers quote it to a recognised test method, so ask which method and which stroke were used. |
| Energy use per kilogram of plastic, heating capacity and heating zones | Energy use shows up in every shift. Data sheets list heating capacity and zones. Ask for measured energy use per kilogram on your product. |
| Control system and process monitoring | The control system keeps pressure and temperature stable, which decides part quality. Ask for process monitoring, alarms, mould data storage and the language of the screen. |
| Safety features: guards, interlocks, emergency stops | IS/ISO 20430 sets the safety requirements for injection moulding machines. Ask whether the machine's safety design follows it and how the guards and interlocks work at the mould area. |
| Cooling water and electrical connection needs | Data sheets show the cooling water and electrical connections on the machine drawing. Ask for water flow and temperature, the electrical load and whether a chiller is included. |
| Mould clamping method, ejector force and take-out robot interface | Moulds are held by bolts, hydraulic clamps or magnetic clamps, and quick clamps help where moulds change often. Ask for the ejector force and stroke and whether a robot interface is provided. |
| Machine size, weight and floor loading | Data sheets give machine dimensions and weight of the movable mould half. Check them against your floor, doors and lifting arrangement for moulds before ordering. |

Injection Moulding Machine: frequently asked questions
Who makes injection moulding machines in India?
diipl does not publish manufacturer names. You tell diipl your requirement, such as the parts you mould, clamping force and drive type. diipl then matches a manufacturer that has passed GSTIN verification and a capacity audit, confirms its Importer-Exporter Code and the certifications your market needs, and arranges a direct meeting.
What should I specify when buying a commercial injection moulding machine?
State the clamping force, shot weight for your resin, screw diameter, tie-bar distance and mould size range. Add the drive type for each axis, injection pressure and speed, dry cycle time, energy use, control system and safety features. Ask for a trial run with your own mould and the utilities list before delivery.
Which standards or certifications apply to injection moulding machines?
BIS lists IS/ISO 20430 : 2020, the safety standard for injection moulding machines, as the Indian adoption of ISO 20430 : 2020. Ask whether the machine's safety design follows it, and see the export certifications for the European Union and the international standard.
What is the HSN code for injection moulding machines?
Injection Moulding Machines are classified under ITC-HS 84771000 (injection-moulding machines), within HS subheading 847710. The export shipping bill carries this full 8-digit line; a GST invoice needs only its first 4 or 6 digits, depending on your turnover. Confirm the 8-digit line against your exact machine before you file.
Can Indian manufacturers export injection moulding machines?
Yes, when the machine meets the rules of the destination region. For the European Union that means CE marking, which can only be affixed after testing and the conformity assessment procedure. Buyers abroad should also check the electrical supply, spares and remote support, and agree the Incoterm and packing. Before arranging a meeting, diipl confirms the manufacturer's Importer-Exporter Code and the certifications your market needs.
Which industries buy injection moulding machines?
Moulders making packaging, automotive parts, consumer products such as chairs, storage containers and toys, and medical products buy these machines. Plumbing and construction products are also injection moulded, and so are mechanical parts such as gears.
I manufacture injection moulding machines. How do I find verified buyers?
diipl researches which buyer segments and regions need injection moulding machines, then runs outreach to them. Each buyer is verified for need, budget, authority and timeline before any introduction. diipl then arranges a direct meeting. Your name and contact details are never published.
How do I choose the clamping force of an injection moulding machine?
Clamping force holds the mould shut against the injection pressure. The force needed is determined by the projected area of the part being moulded, and stiffer plastics need more injection pressure and so more clamping force. Ask your mould designer for the figure and choose a machine with some margin. Machines are rated in tonnes or kN.
Should I buy a hydraulic, all-electric or hybrid injection moulding machine?
Hydraulic machines drive the axes with pumps and cylinders and come in a wide range of sizes. Servo-hydraulic machines add a servo-driven pump to cut idle energy use. All-electric machines use servo-electric drives and suit precise parts and clean production areas. Hybrid machines combine electric and hydraulic drives. Compare quotes on energy use per kilogram, the precision you need, noise and service support, and ask for the drive of each axis in writing.
What is the difference between clamping force and shot weight?
Clamping force, in tonnes or kN, is how hard the machine holds the mould closed. Shot weight is the most plastic the injection unit can deliver in one shot, quoted in grams for a stated plastic. Manufacturer data sheets list both, along with screw diameter, tie-bar distance and injection pressure.
What utilities does an injection moulding machine need?
A manufacturer data sheet shows an electrical connection and a cooling water connection on the machine drawing and lists the machine dimensions. Ask for the electrical load, the water flow and temperature, the machine weight and the floor layout before delivery, so your shop is ready when the machine arrives.
