Nissei has a new micro molding press for the North American market, the all-electric NEX30V-1EN1, which features a two-stage, high-precision injection unit that consists of a screw and plunger.
The NEX30V, which was shown at K 2025 for the first time, has 33 tons of clamping force.
The addition of Nissei’s new Tact5 controller is an upgrade from the previous model. The Tact5 system includes Industry 4.0 capabilities.
The micro molding press has a 14mm screw diameter. Clamping stroke is 230mm and ejector stroke is 50mm.
Maximum daylight opening is 605mm. Tie-bar clearance is 310mm by 310mm.
Nissei demonstrated the machine molding battery seal caps. The demonstration featured N-constellation, Nissei’s trademarked IoT package that allows the injection molding machine to serve as a network hub, integrating auxiliary equipment and connecting into a smart factory.
Nissei also demonstrated N-QR Scan, a molding management system that uses 2D bar codes; OPC-UA for connecting auxiliary equipment and manufacturing execution systems (MES); and PQ manager, a quality and production management system that supports real-time collection of waveform data, remote monitoring and email notifications.
Nissei also unveiled what it called a concept model, the Nova Canbio110T-H320 servo-hydraulic press with 121 tons of clamping force. It used Nissei’s proprietary low-pressure molding process for thick-wall containers using recycled PET glycol (PETG) material.
The machine has a new standard screw that improves metering stability to process PETG and allows the use of up to 30 percent regrind.
The press is equipped with a direct pressure clamping unit, which transmits uniform clamping force across the mold and ensures reliable performance for extended periods.
