FCS SA-160 Intelligent Outward Toggle Injection Molding Machine Wins the 34th Taiwan Excellence Awar

Smart, Precise, Sustainable — Demonstrating Innovation in Injection Molding

FCS Group announced that its SA-160 Intelligent Outward Toggle Injection Molding Machine has been honored with the 34th "Taiwan Excellence Award." Guided by the Ministry of Economic Affairs and organized by TAITRA, the award recognizes products that excel in innovative design, performance, quality, and market competitiveness, and is regarded as the highest honor symbolizing excellence in Made-in-Taiwan (MIT) products.

Being awarded highlights the SA Series’ outstanding performance in smart control, energy efficiency, and precise molding processes.

🔧Precise Injection: High Mixing, High Control, Low Deviation

The SAseries adopts a high-mixing screw and optional electric plasticizing system, combined with linear guide design and a front pulling injection mechanism, effectively reducing friction and improving efficiency.
The servo closed-loop injection control achieves >99.9% shot weight repeatability, ensuring stable and consistent product quality — ideal for food packaging, daily-use products, and precision molding applications.

Key Features:

• Efficient screw plasticizing improves melt quality
• Linear guide injection unit reduces abrasion
• Concentrated injection force ensures stable molding

🧩Optimized Clamping: Increased Rigidity & Greater Mold Flexibility

The clamping structure of the SA Series has been strengthened through engineering analysis, achieving a 30% increase in rigidity while reducing platen deformation — resulting in extended mold life.

Advantages include:

• Mold opening stroke increased by 18%
• Mold installation space increased by 23%
• Supports multiple core actions and synchronization to meet special mold requirements (optional)

🌐Intelligent Control: iMF 4.0 Smart Manufacturing

The SA Series integrates the iMF 4.0 Smart Manufacturing System, enabling production data visualization and energy monitoring to support process optimization and decision-making.

iMF 4.0 enables:

• Real-time monitoring of injection, clamping, and production efficiency
• Optional energy usage & carbon footprint monitoring for energy-saving management
• 12-inch full-color intuitive UI for user-friendly operation

✅ SA Series Recognition: A Strong Validation of Smart Molding

FCS stated that since its market launch, the SA Series has been enthusiastically received by customers. Over 200 units have been sold this year (till Oct. 2025), and during the K Show in Germany this October, SA orders accounted for more than 60% of new machine deals.

FCS will continue to invest in smart molding and energy-saving technologies, providing competitive molding solutions and helping customers accelerate process optimization and production upgrades.
