Engineered for seamless integration with European injection molding machinery ranging from 250T to 2300T clamping forces.
Italy stands as Europe’s second-largest manufacturing powerhouse. Regions such as Lombardy, Piedmont, Emilia-Romagna, and Veneto form the backbone of the European plastics processing, automotive component fabrication, packaging, and medical device sectors. However, Italian industrial operations face acute challenges: volatile electricity tariffs across the EU, stringent European Green Deal carbon footprints, and an aging technical workforce.
To remain competitive globally, Italian plant directors are accelerating transitions under the "Piano Transizione 5.0" tax credit initiative, prioritizing equipment that delivers quantifiable energy savings, absolute repeatability, and digital interoperability. Modernizing plastic processing plants with high-performance 3-axis and 5-axis servo manipulators directly directly targets these operational priorities.
Our technical framework combines absolute encoder servo drives, high-rigidity structural beam designs, and advanced vision-guided end-of-arm tooling (EOAT).
Designed for complex mold geometries requiring simultaneous part removal and sub-runner handling. Dual-section telescopic arms allow ultra-low headroom clearance, making them ideal for facilities with restricted overhead crane dimensions.
Utilizing high-torque AC servo motors paired with planetary reducers, our takeaway robots achieve take-out times down to 0.8 seconds. This rapid cycle optimization drastically increases overall equipment effectiveness (OEE) in multi-cavity caps and closure production.
Integrated high-resolution vision systems verify cavity fill, part orientation, and cosmetic perfection prior to downstream optical sorting, packaging, or In-Mold Labeling (IML) automation.

Zhejiang Zhiyi Intelligent Robot Co., Ltd. operates at the center of China’s advanced intelligent equipment manufacturing ecosystem. By vertically integrating component sourcing, precision machining, structural welding, and control system software development, we deliver industrial robotic solutions that match top European standards at a competitive Total Cost of Ownership (TCO).
Our state-of-the-art production facility incorporates rigorous quality assurance frameworks. Every robotic arm undergoes a mandatory 72-hour continuous burn-in load test, dynamic laser-interferometer calibration, and full electrical safety testing before export.
Deploying industrial equipment across EU directives demands uncompromising safety compliance, structural certification, and rapid regional field assistance.
Fully compliant with EU Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC, Low Voltage Directive 2014/35/EU, and EMC Directive 2014/30/EU. Integrated dual-circuit safety stop architectures comply with EN ISO 13849-1 (PLd/PLe).
Equipped with intuitive handheld teach pendants supporting Italian, English, German, and Spanish visual user interfaces. Open programming structures enable seamless custom macro configuration by local technicians.
Supported by dedicated European engineering partners providing rapid dispatch for on-site commissioning, routine preventative maintenance, and immediate overnight spare parts fulfillment.
Established in 2017, Zhejiang Zhiyi Intelligent Robot Co., Ltd. has grown into a recognized National High-Tech Enterprise specializing in high-precision robotics and automated factory ecosystems.
Explore our full lineup of 3-axis, 5-axis, bullhead, and specialized servo robotic arms for injection molding automation.
A structured technical framework for Italian purchasing departments and automation engineering leads evaluating overseas robotics suppliers.
Evaluate dry take-out time versus total mold-open time. Transitioning from pneumatic kickers to AC servo-driven arms typically saves 1.2 to 2.5 seconds per shot, unlocking up to 15% higher annual output.
Ensure hardware compatibility with Euromap 67 (50-pin standard connector) or Euromap 12 interfaces. Confirm software handshaking protocols for mold safety ejector signals and core-pull interlocks.
Verify standard off-the-shelf industrial components (THK linear guides, THK/PMI ball screws, Schneider electronics) to ensure localized maintenance without proprietary lock-in bottlenecks.
