What Makes the 60mm Niigata Tip Assembly Essential


Injection molding machines rely on tip assemblies to deliver molten plastic from the barrel to the mold cavity. The 60mm Niigata tip assembly is engineered to handle the demands of medium-to-large tonnage machines, providing durability and precision. Its 35-degree tip angle optimizes flow characteristics, reducing pressure loss and improving shot consistency.


The 6.50-inch total length fits perfectly within Niigata’s injection units, ensuring compatibility without modification. This assembly supports high shot volumes and withstands the thermal and mechanical stresses common in injection molding processes.


Compatible Niigata Machine Series


The 60mm tip assembly is compatible with several Niigata machine lines, making it a versatile choice for many manufacturers:


  • MD Series (MD-S8000, MD7000)

These all-electric machines form Niigata’s core product line. The 60mm tip assembly suits models with clamp forces between 245 and 500 tons. It supports high-precision molding and energy-efficient operation.


  • MZ Series

Niigata’s hybrid electric and servo-hydraulic machines often use the 60mm tip in mid-range models like the MZ2300V and MZ3000V. These machines benefit from the tip’s balance of strength and flow control.


  • MDV / MDVR Series

Vertical all-electric machines designed for insert molding also rely on the 60mm tip assembly. Larger injection units in these series require reliable tips to maintain cycle times and product quality.


  • Legacy NE Series

Older hydraulic models such as the NE110UA may use 60mm tips if retrofitted or ordered with high-shot-capacity barrels. This allows operators to extend the life of legacy machines with modern components.


Benefits of Using the 60mm Niigata Tip Assembly
