What is the maximum injection molding capacity of a machine?

The maximum injection molding capacity of a machine depends on several factors, including the volume of the mold cavity, the shot size, and the material being used. The machine's clamping force and injection pressure also play a role in determining the maximum injection molding capacity.

Injection molding machines can range in size from small benchtop machines with a maximum injection capacity of a few grams to large machines capable of producing parts that weigh several kilograms. High-capacity, industrial-grade machines can have a maximum injection capacity of up to 60,000 grams (or 60 kilograms), depending on the manufacturer and model.

The maximum injection molding capacity of a machine is typically specified in terms of the shot size, which is the maximum volume of material that the machine can inject into the mold with a single injection stroke. The shot size can range from a few grams to several kilograms, depending on the machine's size and capacity.

It's important to note that while a machine may have a high maximum injection molding capacity, the actual production rate will depend on the complexity of the part being produced, the cycle time, and the number of cavities in the mold.
