Custom Plastic Mold Injection and
3D Printing Machinery

The Milacron Q-Series is a high-performance injection molding machine designed for efficiency and versatility in the low-to-mid tonnage range.

​

Leveraging the use of a servo motor in combination with hydraulic components, the Q-Series provides exceptional repeatability and energy savings with oversized clamp specs, increased max mold weights, and outstanding dry cycle times to meet the demands of all the major industry market segments.

​

The Q-Series offers a range of clamp tonnages from 55 to 610 tons, paired with six variations of injection units, allowing for a wide range of operational capacities.

 

This flexibility makes it suitable for various applications, from small precision parts to larger components.

​​​

Additionally, the machine's servo-hydraulic system delivers rapid pressure control and improved cycle precision, contributing to faster production speeds and enhanced energy efficiency.
