A 160T (160 Ton) Plastic Injection Moulding Machine is a medium-capacity industrial machine used for manufacturing plastic products by injecting molten plastic into a mould. The "160T" refers to the clamping force, which is 160 tons (approximately 1,568 kN). This force is used to keep the mould closed during the injection and cooling process.
