At PLASTINDIA 2026, WITTMANN Group will put its spotlight on four topics – energy, material, time, and space. WITTMANN BATTENFELD India will demonstrate highly demanding applications with maximum efficiency, using an example from medical technology.

MicroPower injection molding machine for medical applications

At the fair, WITTMANN will show a MicroPower injection molding machine with a clamping force of 15 tons, equipped with a 2-cavity mold, producing vascular clamps for medical application.

WITTMANN’s MicroPower injection molding machine.

The all-electric injection molding machine allows the injection plunger to reach all the way down to the parting line of the mold. This reduces the melt cushion to a minimum and significantly reduces the sprue, if not eliminating it altogether. The special design feature improves both material efficiency and quality consistency, as the pressure is transferred over a very short flow path.

In addition, the MicroPower features a very compact design. Covering just two square meters, the machine concept combines a rotary table, auxiliaries, automation, temperature control unit, quality assurance, and other process units. For clean room applications, a laminar flow box can also be easily integrated. 

Temperature control: Robust technology, easy-to-use, minimal energy consumption

At the auxiliary’s exhibition area, WITTMANN will focus on temperature control, as mold temperature control has a decisive influence on both processing efficiency and part quality. Among other technologies, a Tempro C120 temperature control unit will be shown at PLASTINDIAN.

The Tempro C120 is suitable for temperatures up to 120°C and has an exceptionally high cooling capacity due to the direct feed of cooling water. It offers excellent value for money and a wide range of equipment options to suit a variety of applications.

In-house recycling solutions

In-house recycling with WITTMANN granulators reduces the use of virgin material and saves costs. At PLASTINDIA, the compact G-Max blade granulators and the powerful S-Max screenless granulators will be on display.

G-Max series granulators are suitable for all soft to medium-hard plastics, such as PP, PE, ABS, PU, or PC. The optimized rotor ensures clean, homogeneous regrind and high material throughput. Significantly higher output with the same energy input is made possible by the massive flywheel, which maximizes the rotor’s inertia.

S-Max granulators have been optimized for grinding engineering and reinforced plastics. Styrene plastics, acrylates, and glass fiber-reinforced materials are effectively ground in slow operation (27 rpm at 50 Hz). S-Max granulators also fit into tight production areas and are compatible with various robot or conveyor belt feeders.

Primus robot with higher load capacity

With the new Primus 118, WITTMANN extends the range of application of its Primus linear robots for injection molding machines of up to 250 tons. The new size 118 offers a choice of load capacities up to eight kilograms.

The new Primus 118 linear robot.

A new design with stronger demolding and vertical axes as well as more powerful drive systems are the basis for the high performance of the Primus 118 linear robot. The robot offers up to ten valve slots and thus various combinations of gripper and vacuum circuits. Up to eight vacuum circuits are possible.

The new Primus 118 can be very flexibly installed on different models and sizes of injection molding machines. Since the drilling pattern in the main beam has not been changed compared to earlier series, the Primus 118 can be mounted very easily on existing equipment.

IML and automation systems for Indian market

At PLASTINDIA, WITTMANN will showcase an IML (in mold labeling) application with a 4-cavity mold and side-entry automation. The application operates with a cycle time of six seconds.

Particularly in the field of automation, the Indian market has very specific requirements. WITTMANN therefore offers IML and automation systems in India that are developed and produced locally. In India, WITTMANN is also driving forward numerous in-house product developments in the field of auxiliaries, which complement the global product portfolio.
