ACE Series Horizontal BMC and Bakelite Thermoset | RFQ Sourcing Details

This ACE series horizontal injection molding machine is designed for processing BMC and Bakelite thermosetting plastics. The molding process uses heat and pressure to produce irreversible cross-linking within the mold. Documented machine functions include material measurement, hot-press curing, and demolding.

The equipment is described as automatic and computerized, with mechanical clamping and plunger, reciprocating, or screw plasticizing configurations. The supplied specification table covers four configurations: ACE-100, ACE-120, ACE-150, and ACE-180.

Their rated clamp forces are 1,000, 1,200, 1,500, and 1,800 kN respectively. Each model lists three injection-unit choices, identified as A, B, and C. Across the documented range, shot volume extends from 120 to 471 cm³, while stated polystyrene-equivalent injection weight ranges from 109 to 428 g.

Injection pressure varies by model and injection unit, from 108 to 310 MPa. Listed screw speeds range from 200 to 230 rpm. Mold-area specifications vary by configuration. Tie-bar spacing ranges from 370 × 370 mm on the ACE-100 to 530 × 470 mm on the ACE-180.

Maximum mold height ranges from 380 to 550 mm, and minimum mold height ranges from 150 to 180 mm. Ejector stroke is listed from 100 to 140 mm, with ejector force from 33 to 77 kN. The documented machines use a maximum pump pressure of 17.5 MPa.

Pump motor power ranges from 13 to 26 kW, heater power from 7.2 to 13.2 kW, and oil-tank capacity from 180 to 250 L. Individual machine dimensions and weights are provided for the four tabled configurations, ranging from 4.1 × 1.1 × 1.8 m and 3.5 t to 5.6 × 1.4 × 2.2 m and 5.8 t.

The equipment is presented for molding thermoset products requiring heat resistance and mechanical strength, with electrical insulating parts and automotive components given as example product types.

A precise temperature-control module and an exhaust-gas treatment device for volatile substances generated during phenolic-resin processing are also described. The drive system may be hydraulic or electric, so the selected drive arrangement should be confirmed for the quoted machine.

Procurement confirmation is important because the general listing, model reference, and detailed table do not fully align.

Buyers should confirm the exact ACE model, injection-unit selection, plasticizing arrangement, drive system, mold interface, utility requirements, and whether the proposed configuration is suitable for their specific BMC or Bakelite formulation and finished part.

The applicable certification documents should be checked for the selected machine and destination market.

Warranty statements also differ within the supplied information: one field states a five-year warranty, while the detailed FAQ states one year for the complete machine and five years for casting parts, excluding quick-wear parts.

Buyers should obtain the exact written warranty scope, exclusions, service process, installation responsibility, training arrangement, production schedule, packaging dimensions, shipment weight, and acceptance criteria before ordering.
