The Sumitomo All-Electric Platform
The Sumitomo all-electric technology platform provides molders with a wide range of machines equipped with the latest innovations in injection molding speed, precision, applications flexibility, easy-to-use controls and energy efficient operation.
Today, the Sumitomo all-electric platform spans machines from 8 to 660 US tons with micro to mid-sized horizontals (including high-speed/packaging and high-duty models), vertical and rotary table insert models, multi-shot and disc molding models.
The leading edge engineering of Sumitomo electric injection molding machines is perhaps most clearly evident in the highly demanding disc/media molding industry where Sumitomo has long maintained a significantly dominant global market position.
A lesser known fact in the North American molding market, however, is that Sumitomo is the #1 manufacturer of injection molding machines in Japan — a country widely recognized for its exceptional manufacturing productivity and ability to compete in a global marketplace.
Several factors set apart Sumitomo electric machines from other manufacturers’ electrics:
- Sumitomo's advanced motor technology and the company's ability to design and build specialized motors for injection molding machines, ensuring the best combination of motors for the machine type, function and size
- More than 15 years of extensive R&D on electric injection molding machines
- A successful track record of the development of patented breakthrough technologies that improve molding precision and productivity
- The field-proven N-Series controls that molders widely appreciate for ease of use and extensive capabilities for machine optimization — used consistently across the product lines
- An exceptional breadth of all-electric product lines, meeting the needs of diverse and emerging applications
- Excellent Service & Support including a standard-setting warranty program, 3 days free in-plant training, and highly rated processing support, service and parts availability
