INDUSTRY APPLICATION · PLASTICS PROCESSING

Injection moulding machines run 15–25 years — the hydraulic oil has to keep up.

Plastics processing runs three core machine types — injection moulding, extrusion and blow moulding — with hydraulics doing most of the mechanical work on an injection moulding machine: clamp open/close, ejection and injection cylinders, and the plasticising motor. With injection moulding machines commonly in service 15 to 25 years, hydraulic oil condition is a long-term reliability factor, not a routine consumable.

What drives product selection in this industry.

  • Long machine service life
    An injection moulding machine averages 15–25 years in service; the hydraulic system's wear rate over that span depends heavily on the oil's oxidation stability and anti-wear performance.
  • Continuous clamp, injection and ejection cycling
    Toggle-clamp and direct-clamp injection moulding machines cycle their hydraulic cylinders continuously — clamping, injection and ejection are all hydraulically actuated on most designs.
  • OEM warranty-period compliance
    Most processors specify the machine builder's recommended hydraulic oil grade during the warranty period, then look for an equivalent or better-performing product afterward.
