PPi Welcomes Our Newest Machine
Here at PPi, we’ve just welcomed a brand‑new Yizumi A5‑EU series machine to the shop floor, boosting our total moulding capacity yet again. A big thank‑you goes to STV Machinery—not only for supplying the press, but for their advice that showed us why the A5‑EU is the perfect next step for our operation.
Key Features of this new machine:
- Generous tie‑bar spacing & larger platens – accommodates wider tools without upsizing the tonnage.
- Servo‑hydraulic power with KEBA 1175 control – quiet, energy‑saving pump system managed by an Austrian controller that’s Industry 4.0 ready.
- Automatic clamp‑force & mould‑height adjustment – speeds up changeovers and protects tooling.
- Euromap 67 robot interface & re‑designed guarding – plug‑and‑play automation from day one.
Why Did We Choose the A5‑EU?
- Lower running costs – the high‑efficiency servo pump cuts energy by up to 60 %, trimming both bills and carbon footprint.
- Big‑machine capability in a smaller footprint – the “EU” upgrade gives class‑leading tie‑bar spacing, so we fit larger moulds without moving up a clamp size.
- Repeatable precision – KEBA closed‑loop control, proportional back‑pressure and linear guidance keep tolerances tight and amount of reject parts low.
- STV’s extensive, engineer‑backed warranty – parts and service stocked in the UK mean real peace of mind.
What Does This Mean for Our Customers?
- Consistent, high‑quality parts thanks to tighter process control and mould protection.
- Shorter lead times—faster cycling and rapid tool changes keep production flowing.
- Sharper pricing—energy savings and higher overall efficiency let us pass the benefit straight on to you.
- New possibilities—wider platens and multi‑core capability open the door to larger, more complex or components.
