Feeding
Bowl, tray or magazine feeding places metal inserts into the vertical rotary table, cycle after cycle.
Vertical injection moulding holds the insert flat and lets gravity and the clamp do the fixturing. That is why insert moulding, insert overmoulding and metal overmoulding run cleaner on a vertical machine than on a horizontal one — and why the moulded part leaves the cell at a higher added value.

Insert moulding
On a vertical rotary table the operator or robot loads the insert while the previous part is moulding. The table indexes, the vertical clamp closes over a stable insert, and metal overmoulding happens without the part shifting. See the full process →
Automation
Bowl, tray or magazine feeding places metal inserts into the vertical rotary table, cycle after cycle.
Camera checks insert presence and orientation before the clamp closes — scrap stays out of the mould.
A robot removes the overmoulded part, degates and sets it down oriented for the next step.
