HDPE Box and Fruit Basket Injection Molding Machine

Name: HDPE Box and Fruit Basket Injection Molding Machine
Brand: AMAN

Overview

Fruit baskets and storage boxes rely on ribbed, ventilated walls that stay rigid when stacked and loaded, and injection molding fills those open lattice geometries cleanly and repeatably. Crate moulds are usually single-cavity, with a multi-point hot runner so the ribbed, ventilated walls fill evenly; the hot runner also trims runner scrap, helping keep per-box cost low. One machine can switch between box and basket tooling for a flexible packaging range.

Key features

Moulds HDPE fruit baskets and storage boxes
Multi-point hot runner keeps cost low
Rigid, stackable ribbed and ventilated walls

Application

Recommended setup

We make the basket and box moulds in our own workshop and also supply the matched injection machine to run them. Both moulds run on one AM-700, so switching between box and basket is a mould change. Recommended setup:

Model selection		Matched to your part weight, projected area and cavity count

One machine covers a range of sizes: you only change the mould to make a different product. The machine must be selected according to the LARGEST product you plan to make — running a small product on a large machine is possible, but you lose some efficiency and some material. Send us your smallest and your largest product (size and weight) and we will confirm whether one machine is enough.

Order the injection mould for your part with this machine and we make it in our own workshop, then ship machine and mould as one set, tested and tuned together. Send your part drawing and we quote the machine together with the mould.

Each machine is configured to your container; the final specification is written into your quotation.
