Screw Configuration
 

Which AXEP278 Electric Pre-Plasticizing Screw Configuration Should You Choose?
The AXEP278 Electric Pre-Plasticizing Injection Molding Machine is available with three screw configurations to meet different product weight, injection capacity and plasticizing requirements.

55 mm Screw - Standard Configuration

• Screw Diameter: 55 mm
• L/D Ratio: 22.4
• Theoretical Shot Size: 651 cm³
• Injection Weight (PS): 592 g
• Injection Rate: 220 g/s
• Injection Pressure: 196 MPa
The 55 mm screw provides a balanced combination of injection capacity, injection pressure and plasticizing performance, making it suitable for precision plastic products with moderate shot requirements.

60 mm Screw - Higher Shot Capacity

• Screw Diameter: 60 mm
• L/D Ratio: 20.5
• Theoretical Shot Size: 775 cm³
• Injection Weight (PS): 705 g
• Injection Rate: 265 g/s
• Injection Pressure: 164 MPa
The 60 mm screw provides a higher injection capacity and plasticizing output for precision products requiring a larger shot size.

65 mm Screw - Maximum Injection Capacity

• Screw Diameter: 65 mm
• L/D Ratio: 19.0
• Theoretical Shot Size: 909 cm³
• Injection Weight (PS): 827 g
• Injection Rate: 310 g/s
• Injection Pressure: 140 MPa
The 65 mm screw offers the highest injection capacity and injection rate among the AXEP278 configurations, making it suitable for larger precision components and applications requiring higher material throughput.

The appropriate screw configuration should be selected according to product weight, material, mold design, required injection pressure and production requirements.
