KraussMaffei systems are among the best in the world in plasticizing of transparent plastics. For your production, they combine short cycle times with minimal rejection rates. The geometry and materials of the plasticizing unit are adapted optimally to prevent black spots and clinging material. The desired screw diameter and shot weight are coordinated precisely to enable smooth production for you.


APCplus always has a good overview of the quality of the optical components. Unmatched in all the world, this machine function optimizes your valuable products – such as LED matrix light lenses made of liquid silicone (LSR) – enough to reduce the rejection rate to a minimum. At the end, fully inspected components leave your machine.
