Hayco taps Ferromatik for 14 new presses

Hayco, a developer and manufacturer of products as diverse as electronic toothbrushes, water filtration systems and electric floor sweepers, has ordered 14 new injection molding machines from manufacturer Ferromatik Milacron (Malterdingen, Germany) to add to the 200 machines it already operates at its facilities in Shenzen, China. Hayco’s current stable of presses ranges in clamp tonnage from 30-850 tonnes, and the new machines also fall within that range.

Hayco has asked for delivery of the first seven machines this year, with the order including models from the K-Tec series and the Maxima large-tonnage machine series. One machine will be for multicomponent molding. The K-Tec machines are offered in a range of 40-450 tonnes’ clamp force and Maxima presses are offered sized from 500-3000 tonnes. Both ranges are fully hydraulic machines.

In 2005 Hayco acquired Forson Precision Ltd., one of the region’s top manufacturers of injection molds. —[email protected]
