Explore our flagship injection molding automation machinery, crafted for rapid cycle times, high payload stability, and seamless EUROMAP integration.
In an era defined by accelerating Industry 4.0 mandates, labor shortages, and tightening margin pressures, modern plastics processors and discrete manufacturers are undergoing a radical shift toward intelligent automated cell architecture. Industrial robots—specifically 3-axis and 5-axis servo manipulators tailored for Injection Molding Machines (IMM)—have transitioned from optional productivity upgrades to fundamental operational necessities.
Plastics production plants worldwide confront rising hourly labor overheads, inconsistent manual part extraction cycle times, elevated component scrap rates, and strict workplace safety guidelines. Manual demolding in large-tonnage presses (from 250T up to 2300T) presents significant safety vulnerabilities and operational variability that cap overall equipment effectiveness (OEE).
Deploying dedicated 3-axis servo robotic arms and specialized Bull Head (Niutou) double-arm manipulators addresses these bottlenecks directly. By guaranteeing repeat accuracies down to ±0.1mm and reducing take-out cycle times to mere seconds, automated servo robots stabilize thermal profiles within injection molds, eliminate mold damage risks, and maximize annual output capacity.
In today's rapidly developing industrial automation field, Zhejiang Zhiyi Intelligent Robot Co., Ltd. has established itself as an authoritative leader through technical strength and continuous innovation. Established in 2017, our enterprise is committed to equipping global manufacturing entities with superior robotic hardware, customized end-of-arm tooling (EOAT), and complete factory automation ecosystems.
Holding the national designation of "National High-tech Enterprise", Zhiyi integrates advanced mechanical design, digital control systems, and precision sensor systems to elevate manufacturing productivity.
Our automation systems are designed with high-rigidity structural beams, premium absolute AC servo drives, and modular end-of-arm vacuum circuits to support continuous 24/7 factory operations.

Featuring high-precision AC servo motors driving each axis via precision planetary gearboxes and heavy-duty linear guide rails. Guarantees smooth speed acceleration profiles, minimal vibration, and millimetric positioning accuracy across extended stroke lengths.
Designed for operations requiring high degrees of freedom (DOF). Ideal for complex post-processing tasks including gate trimming, robotic ultrasonic welding, automated flame treatment, and vision-guided part sorting adjacent to the injection press.
Seamlessly links injection molding extraction arms directly with downstream carton erectors, bagging systems, and palletizers. Provides a complete turn-key automated pipeline from raw resin processing to final warehouse packaging.
Procuring industrial robotic equipment directly from OEM/ODM China suppliers like Zhejiang Zhiyi delivers immense competitive advantages in capital efficiency, component availability, and customization velocity.
Situated in Zhejiang province—the heartland of Chinese advanced equipment manufacturing—Zhiyi leverages an integrated regional supply network for high-grade structural aluminum profiles, precision CNC machining, custom pneumatic manifolds, and specialized electronics. This cluster proximity enables rapid prototype fabrication, strict quality control, and minimal component lead times.
Compared to European or North American equipment OEMs, Zhiyi delivers equivalent or superior mechanical performance and component durability at a substantially reduced capital expenditure. Global factory clients typically achieve full payback on their automated cell investments within 8 to 14 months of deployment.
Every injection molding setup features distinct ceiling clearance limits, safety guarding constraints, and product ejection specifications. Our in-house engineering team designs bespoke arm stroke lengths, low-profile telescopic vertical legs, double-arm configurations, and customized pneumatic EOAT fixtures tailored to your exact mold dimensions.
With modern assembly bays, rigorous burn-in testing zones, and standardized quality assurance protocols, our facilities maintain an annual production capacity of over 2,500 automation units. This ensures rapid dispatch for large-scale enterprise expansion programs.
Zhiyi robotic manipulators are field-proven across diverse global industrial sectors, executing high-speed, contamination-free part transfer and continuous production.
Heavy-payload Bull Head 3-axis robots automate the demolding of bumper fascia, instrument panels, door trims, and engine compartment covers from 1500T–2300T molding machines. Integrated degating and cooling stations preserve part geometry without thermal distortion.
Building on Zhiyi’s foundational expertise in stainless steel flask lid molding and lunch box production, our servo arms execute high-speed removal and direct placement onto downstream conveyers, reducing labor overhead by up to 80%.
Cleanroom-compatible 5-axis dual-arm servo robots perform high-precision medical syringe, micro-fluidic cassette, and electronic housing extraction. Vacuum circuits prevent surface scratching and particulate contamination.
Zhiyi is advancing the frontier of intelligent manufacturing by integrating artificial intelligence, edge computing, and green energy management directly into robot control architecture.
Incorporating advanced machine vision systems driven by neural networks. Future robot controllers will automatically detect part warpage, gate flash, and mis-molded components in real-time while dynamically adjusting trajectory paths to prevent mechanical mold collisions.
Integrating OPC-UA protocols and edge gateway telemetry across our entire servo robot portfolio. Factory managers can monitor real-time motor torque curves, joint thermal profiles, and predictive maintenance metrics via cloud dashboards, reducing unscheduled downtime to near zero.
Next-generation drive amplifiers harvest kinetic energy during vertical deceleration phases, feeding electrical energy back into the main bus bar. This lowers robot operational power consumption by up to 22%, supporting factory ESG sustainability targets.
Developing soft-sensing force feedback control and radar-based virtual safety fencing. This allows operators to perform mold maintenance and manual insert reloading safely without shutting down the primary automation cell.
