FOMTEC FT-RC Multi-Color & Multi-Material Vertical Injection Molding Machine

— Professional Multi-Station Rotary Table Platform for Two-Color / Two-Material Insert Molding

📌 I. Product Overview

The FOMTEC FT-RC Multi-Color & Multi-Material Injection Molding Machine series is a professional model developed by FOMTEC specifically for one-shot molding of two-color or two-material products with inserts. Featuring a vertical clamping & vertical injection design combined with a multi-station rotary table system, it enables efficient, precise, and stable production of two-color / two-material products.

Since producing its first two-color three-station rotary table vertical injection molding machine in 2005, FOMTEC has accumulated nearly 20 years of technical expertise in multi-color & multi-material molding. The FT-RC series covers a clamping force range of 50 to 750 tons and shot weights from 23 g to 1000 g, meeting a wide variety of requirements from small precision parts to medium-large two-color products.

⚙️ II. Core Technical Advantages

🏗️ 1. Vertical Clamping + Vertical Injection – The Ideal Platform for Insert Molding

The FT-RC series features a vertical clamping & vertical injection design. The vertical structure positions the mold facing upward, making insert loading intuitive and convenient with no blind spots for the operator. This design is especially suitable for one-shot molding of two-color or two-material products with inserts.

• Two-Color / Two-Material with Inserts: The vertical structure naturally accommodates insert molding – whether metal terminals, circuit components, or other precision inserts, all can be easily loaded and precisely positioned

• One-Shot Molding: Hard plastic and soft rubber, two colors, or two different materials are completed in one machine in a single cycle – no secondary transfer, eliminating quality issues caused by thermal contraction mismatch

🔧 2. Modular Injection Units – Flexible Combination, On-Demand Configuration

The FT-RC series adopts a modular design allowing different injection unit combinations based on product shot weight requirements.

This design not only improves production efficiency but also reduces energy consumption. The two injection units can work simultaneously for two-color / two-material molding, or independently for single-color operation – achieving dual-purpose use and expanding the machine's application range.

🔄 3. Multi-Station Rotary Table Design – Stable Rotation, Accurate Positioning

The FT-RC series features a multi-station rotary table design with stable rotation, accurate positioning, and easy loading/unloading.

• Stable Rotation: Smooth rotary table movement ensures each station reaches the injection position accurately

• Accurate Positioning: High-precision positioning system guarantees alignment accuracy between mold and injection units

• Easy Loading/Unloading: Multi-station design allows insert loading and part removal to be performed simultaneously at different stations, significantly improving operational efficiency

The multi-station rotary table design makes the FT-RC series especially suitable for high-volume two-color / two-material production with long insert loading times.

⚡ 4. Dual Proportional Pressure/Flow Hydraulic Circuit – Significantly Shortens Cycle Time

The FT-RC series features a dual proportional pressure/flow hydraulic circuit design.

• Ejection During Clamping: Ejection can be performed simultaneously with mold closing

• Significantly Shorter Cycle Time: Optimized hydraulic circuit design allows multiple actions to run in parallel, substantially reducing individual cycle time

• Improved Production Efficiency: Shorter cycles mean higher output per unit of time

🎯 5. High-Precision Electrical Control System – Precise Control, One-Touch Changeover

The FT-RC series adopts an advanced electrical control system with the following core features:

📱 8-Inch Color Display
All functions are clearly displayed with an intuitive user interface.

💾 200‑Set Mold Parameter Storage
Stores up to 200 mold parameter sets. For different products, parameters can be recalled with one touch, dramatically reducing mold changeover and setup time.

📏 Electronic Scale (Position Sensor) Control
Both injection and clamping are controlled by electronic scales with multi-stage pressure and speed adjustments, allowing fine-tuning for each product and ensuring molding accuracy.

🌡️ High-Precision P.I.D. Temperature Control
Stable temperature control across all zones with minimal deviation. Whether for temperature-sensitive engineering plastics or common plastics, precise melt temperature control is guaranteed.

🔩 6. High-Stability Injection & Clamping Systems

Injection Unit: Dual Injection Cylinders, Dual Carriage Cylinders, Dual Guide Rods
Smooth movement and high injection precision.

Clamping Unit: Direct-Pressure Design
Uniform clamping force distribution ensures stable precision inside the mold cavity.

High-Torque, Low-Noise Hydraulic Motor
Equipped with high-torque, low-noise hydraulic motor for superior plasticizing performance.

High-Quality Self-Lubricating Bearings
Self-lubricating bearings at all moving points simplify machine maintenance.

📊 III. Application Fields & Typical Products

The FT-RC series is widely used in various products requiring two-color or two-material combinations:

Originally requiring multiple assembly steps to complete one finished product, with a two-color machine and matching mold, the manufacturing process is significantly streamlined – saving up to 2/3 of production time compared to conventional methods. One-shot two-color molding also reduces quality issues caused by thermal contraction mismatch, substantially lowering production costs while improving product quality.

🏢 IV. FOMTEC’s Multi-Color & Multi-Material Technical Strength

Since producing its first two-color three-station rotary table vertical injection molding machine in 2005, FOMTEC has mastered multiple multi-color & multi-material molding technologies. The multi-color / multi-material product line includes:

FOMTEC designs and manufactures injection molding machines with clamping force ranging from 15 to 650 tons and shot capacity from 35 g to 8000 g, providing precisely matched machine configurations based on specific product requirements.
