All Electric Vertical Injection Molding Machine, Fits Topics of K 2022
K as one of the biggest Plastics and Rubber international exhibitions which is held every three years, kicked off from 19 to 26 October 2022. K has announced this year’s topics: Circular Economy, Digitalisation and Climate Protection, which are recent global hot topics which every industry is working hard on.
Taiwan Kinki, Manufactured The First All Electric Vertical Injection Molding Machine
Taiwan Kinki (TKC) as the earliest Vertical Injection Molding Machine manufacturer in Taiwan since their development in the year 1983, they accumulate past experience to create ingenious innovations in the Vertical Injection Molding Machine. As a pioneer, they have the most professional and knowledgeable R&D Team and at the same time they have always been at the forefront of the market and advocated environmental protection. Therefore, TKC has been promoting the Hybrid Vertical Injection Molding Machine (hydraulic oil and electric) more than 10 years ago and All Electric Vertical Injection Molding Machine since the past few years.

Benefits of All Electric Vertical Injection Molding Machine
As we can see on the table above, All Electric Vertical Injection Molding Machine has some obvious advantages. The main features of the All Electric Vertical Injection Molding Machine are: environmental protection, energy saving, intelligence and precision. According to TKC’s rich customer experience, it is not about how to convince customers to consider purchasing it, it’s about "what kind of customers has the demand for All Electric Vertical Injection Molding Machine?" For instance:
- Manufacturers of medical equipment
- Product manufacture of high-speed and precision
- High precision and intelligent feedback
Medical equipment requires a completely clean environment and not any oil contamination is allowed. It’s always being carried out in a clean room, therefore the all-electric type machine is the best choice.
For example the tiny plastic parts in 4C consumer electronic products can be easily manufactured by the all-electric type injection molding machine.
For example the optical accessories such as backlights, polarizers, camera lenses, etc which require high precision and intelligent feedback which are equipped in all-electric injection molding machine.
Under normal maintenance and usage, TKC’s machinery basically has 15 years of usage period and when it comes to the biggest difference between the All-electric type and Hydraulic type, it’s the worn parts which need to be replaced in the hydraulic machine due to the high temperature during operation, which makes the all-electric machine more eco-friendly and cost saving.

Practical Technical Guidance
In Taiwan or where TKC has an agent, they always have an installation and education training when the machine arrives on site. Generally, TKC’s technical guidance can be divided into two types: on-machine on-site teaching and the other type: lectures and questions with customers. For on-machine teaching, they will arrange 2-5 operators to do a physical operation teaching after the new machine is readied. Some customers who have special requirement to have a theoretical teaching for more than 10 people, they will prepare teaching materials and provide Q&A time, but usually this type will be charged separately because it depends on the profession level of the involved engineers and the time consumption is usually longer than the usual lecture.
Due to the pandemic of COVID-19, in order to provide the best support for the customers, the professional yet generous TKC has shared a few videos on TAIWAN KINKI YouTube Channel for their customers’ own use.
