TCB-Arrow Invests in a New Kraus Maffei 300t Injection Moulding Machine

Alex Kirkup-Lee • February 14, 2022

We are proud to announce that we have now invested in a new Kraus Maffei 300t Injection Moulding Machine, the latest generation injection moulding machine based on proven two-platen technology.

Kraus Maffei 300t Injection Moulding Machine

This machine will replace an older machine in our mouldshop, allowing us to ensure that all of our machines are reliable, efficient, and up to date with the latest technology.


We chose the Kraus Maffei 300t Series for a number of reasons. Firstly, the MC5 control allows for a simple and fast job setup. The machine has extensive functionality to control a wide range of machine movements and reliable monitoring, as well as evaluation programmes, which will give us accurate and precise control to optimise the quality of products for our Customers.

A standout feature of the Kraus Maffei is its environmental benefits. It is important to us that we optimise efficiencies and minimise our carbon footprint where possible, so our machines need to be as efficient as possible. The Kraus Maffei 300t is much more efficient than our previous machine, and the modular drive concept has been engineered for high machine performance while keeping energy consumption to a minimum. For each operating point, the exact oil volume at the correct pressure is made available, which results in higher productivity and lower costs, while remaining more environmentally friendly.


Kraus Maffei is a premium brand, recognised for its reliability and accuracy. We have worked closely with Kraus for many years now and have a large number of their machines in our mouldshop. It, therefore, made sense for us to invest in a new machine by Kraus Maffei as we are already very familiar with how their products work and can therefore maintain consistency across our machines.

With strides being made to move towards greener manufacturing, a common question is “Why do we continue to produce and use plastics?”. After all, they don’t have the best reputation as sustainable materials. However, thanks to developments in the industry, this isn’t necessarily true anymore. Read our blog to find out the benefits of plastics in manufacturing.

Plastics are an essential material for manufacturing millions of parts, components and products. Sometimes the properties and behaviours need to be formulated in order to serve the right purpose.This is made possible by additives, which enhance certain properties and help to deliver the desired outcomes to the plastics with which they’re combined. Here are three popular additives which serve different purposes in plastic production.
