OVERVIEW
About ELETTRICA All-Electric Series
The ELETTRICA series is LK's all-electric injection molding platform, engineered for manufacturers who need precision, cleanliness, and energy efficiency that hydraulic systems cannot match. The series spans three tiers — base Elettrica, Elettrica-E, and Elettrica-S — covering clamping forces from 600 kN to 4,000 kN (60 to 400 tons) across applications ranging from medical cleanroom molding to high-speed thin-wall packaging.
The base Elettrica series is built for precision and cleanroom manufacturing, using non-contact tie bars that completely isolate the moving platen from contact, minimizing contamination risk — critical for medical consumables like syringes, petri dishes, and pipettes. Low-inertia mechanical assembly combined with parallel axis synchronous motion enables end-position tolerances down to 0.01mm, while ultra-sensitive protection logic monitors speed and torque in real time to instantly respond to foreign object intrusions during clamping.
The Elettrica-E series focuses on energy efficiency and Industry 4.0 readiness, eliminating hydraulic loop friction losses entirely to achieve 40-80% energy savings over standard hydraulic machines, with a 95%+ net power utilization rate and zero risk of oil leaks or seal degradation — making it ideal for sterile white-room environments. The EP700 industrial controller uses high-speed EtherCAT bus synchronization for real-time SPC processing, with native OPC-UA and Modbus-TCP support for direct integration into MES/ERP smart factory systems.
The Elettrica-S series is a hybrid servo-electric and servo-hydraulic platform purpose-built for hyper-speed multi-cavity applications, achieving opening and dosing velocities up to 1,500 mm/s and injection speeds up to 500 mm/s. Heavy-rigidity vibration damping frames and oversized alloy tie bars are engineered specifically to withstand sub-second structural cycles at these speeds, making this tier the choice for high-volume thin-wall food packaging, medical caps, and in-mold labeling (IML) applications.
Across all three tiers, ELETTRICA machines serve medical disposables and consumables, electronic and electrical components (connectors, relays, micro-switches), high-end home appliance parts, and thin-walled premium packaging where cycle speed and dimensional consistency are equally critical.
