New All-Electric Shuttle Blow Molder from Uniloy
Milacron’s newest Uniloy all-electric shuttle is operating in the FGH booth.
Milacron is exhibiting one of the third generation of its all-electric shuttle machines in the booth of its representative, FGH Systems. From this M-Series, introduced in late 2016, FGH is showing the M12.52ED, a double-sided press with 12-metric-ton clamp, and 520-mm shuttle stroke. It is equipped with ah 4 × 100-mm extrusion head producing 14-oz personal-care bottles in eight cavities. FGH designed and built the mold and conversion package to accept existing “blow-and-drop” molds for in-machine deflashing using an adapter plate, new transfer arms, and deflashing punches.
