The all-new, ultra-quiet model 55E Mini-Jector eliminates the need for hydraulic or pneumatic connections by using electric servos for motion control. The full-color, graphical HMI touchscreen provides a user-friendly interface for machine setup & operation. A configurable injection profile allows up to 5 injector speed and acceleration changes, plus a packing stage that can be enabled or disabled by the operator. Recovery can occur either before or after injection, making the machine perfect for creating test specimens.
