This shooting cylinder (injection unit traverse cylinder) is the core actuator of the injection unit movement system in injection molding machines. Mounted between the injection unit carriage and the machine frame rails, it hydraulically advances and retracts the entire injection unit, enabling precise engagement and disengagement of the nozzle with the mold sprue bushing. During injection, the cylinder firmly holds the unit forward, maintaining a tight nozzle-sprue seal to prevent melt leakage; during plastication pauses or shutdowns, it retracts the unit for purging, color changes, or mold maintenance. A compact double-acting design with a maximum thrust of 384 kN, combined with a special low-friction sealing system, anti-pressure-trap drain ports, and a long-life surface-treated piston rod, delivers precise, smooth, leak-free injection unit movement control under high-frequency cycling, rapid response, and continuous production. It is a key guarantee for stable injection in high-speed precision molding machines.

Ultra-Low Friction & Sensitive Response
A special filled PTFE and polyurethane composite low-friction seal package achieves breakaway pressure as low as 0.15 MPa. Combined with large-diameter ports and low-backpressure flow paths, the unit advances and retracts rapidly, stick-slip free, with smooth, gentle nozzle-to-sprue contact that protects both components.
Strategic Drain Port Design, Anti-Pressure-Trap & Anti-Contamination
Strategically placed drain channels between the guide bush and seal stack effectively evacuate the oil film accumulated during high-speed cycling, preventing pressure trapping in the seal system. The trace drained oil is piped back to the tank, eliminating external leakage contamination and improving system reliability.
Long-Stroke, High-Rigidity Construction
The piston rod is fabricated from high-yield quenched and tempered alloy steel, with hard chrome or Ni/Cr alloy plating, maintaining excellent bending stiffness throughout the full unit travel. The cylinder bore is precision honed and works with the guide rings to ensure vibration-free, true-track motion.
Wear & Corrosion Resistance for Long Life
The piston rod surface can be upgraded with laser cladding, ceramic thermal spray, or QPQ treatment for enhanced wear and corrosion resistance in humid, dusty, or mildly acidic/alkaline environments. The sealing system is designed for the full service life of the molding machine, backed by extensive field-proven reliability.
Flexible Mounting & Maintenance-Free
Mounting dimensions, port orientations, and flange interfaces are fully customizable to the machine’s injection unit carriage and frame structure. Self-lubricating composite bushings in the clevises eliminate daily greasing and provide low wear and long life even under extremely high-frequency cycling.
