Screw Configuration
Which AX478 Screw Configuration Should You Choose?
75 mm Screw – AX478-A
Injection Weight: 1568 g (PS)
Injection Rate: 385 g/s
Injection Pressure: 186 MPa
The 75 mm screw provides the highest injection pressure among the three AX478 configurations and can be considered for applications requiring higher injection pressure with a moderate shot size.
80 mm Screw – AX478-B
Injection Weight: 1784 g (PS)
Injection Rate: 440 g/s
Injection Pressure: 164 MPa
The 80 mm screw provides a balanced combination of injection capacity, injection pressure and injection rate, making it a versatile configuration for general-purpose plastic production.
85 mm Screw – AX478-C
