INJECTION PRESSES : 1980, FIRST GENERATION

First was a  vertical wedge action pair of presses designed by us in 1980.
strong and efficient, these machines lacked the flexibity of the lighter and cheaper later models.

'MUCHOMAS', A HIGH-OUTPUT PANEL MAKING PRESS

Will be disclosed by mid-April.

PANEL PRESSES: 1991, FOURTH GENERATION

INJECTION MACHINERY- 1990, FIFTH GENERATION

Ron Smith and myself put together this $20,000. press, one that is easily transportable and reassembled anywhere, sometimes under different formats. Capable of batch injecting up to thirty thinner panels or ten extra thick panels, it has it's own loading and unloading setup in the form of an overhead moveable beam and electric hoist. This feature makes it practical to remove the different size press platen between jobs. This press has the greatest potential for third-world reconstruction applications projects.
