SED-CI Clamping Features
Multi-Shot Direct-Drive All-Electrics

Sumitomo (SHI) Demag's double-shot all electric injection molding machines are designed with a high-speed, high-accuracy rotary plate in the clamping unit. The rotary plate design enables the use of existing single-shot molds or integrated double-shot molds for significant flexibility and cost savings.

The high-speed rotation of the plate helps ensure fast cycle times. On the SE75D-CI, for example, the plate rotates 180 degrees in just 0.82 seconds.

Another feature of the SED-CI Series that supports fast cycle times is fast clamp open/close speeds - from 900 to 1300mm/second, dependent on model size.

For added applications flexibility, the SED-CI design combines the wide rotary plate with wider platens and increased horizontal space between tie bars, allowing larger size molds to be installed. Other clamp unit features of the SED-CI include:

  • Sumitomo's advanced direct-drive all-electric motor technology
  • CPP (Center Press Platen) design, field proven on the SE-DUZ for improved force distribution, elimination of short-shot and flash problems, and improved mold protection
