Frequently Asked Questions about used Plastics Processing

What is plastics processing and what machines are used for it?

Plastics processing covers all methods that turn plastic granulate, powder or semi-finished stock into finished products – mainly injection moulding, extrusion, blow moulding and thermoforming. The machines involved are injection moulding machines, extruders, blow moulding and thermoforming lines, plus peripherals such as temperature control units, dryers and granulators. At Asset-Trade you will find used machines from these categories, for example from manufacturers such as HUSKY, WINDSOR and HEMSCHEIDT.

What should I look for when choosing a used plastics processing machine?

Start by checking whether clamping force, screw diameter and throughput match your mould and part weight, and whether the control generation fits your production and the spare parts situation. It also matters which materials the machine has processed before, because glass-fibre reinforced or abrasive plastics leave characteristic wear on screw and barrel. Typical mistakes are choosing a machine that is too small, buying without a trial run, and underestimating mould and spare part compatibility.

How much does a used plastics processing machine cost?

The price depends on size, year of construction, control system, equipment and condition, so a reliable figure can only be given after the specific machine has been assessed. As a guideline, used plastics machines at Asset-Trade are typically 40 to 70 percent below the price of comparable new machines. Send us your part, your mould and your capacity requirement and a dedicated project manager will put together a suitable selection – the machine appraisal is free of charge.

How is a used plastics machine inspected before purchase?

Asset-Trade inspects every machine in several stages, including a visual check, wear inspection of screw, barrel and clamping unit, and functional tests during a trial run. You can inspect the machine on site and have it demonstrated to you in operation. Your project manager discusses all findings and open points with you before you decide.

Does Asset-Trade also deliver plastics processing machines abroad?

Yes, worldwide shipping and export are part of the standard process, including loading, transport documents and customs paperwork. Beforehand, voltage, frequency, control language and container space should be clarified so the machine can be set up directly at its destination. Your project manager coordinates loading, schedules and local contacts.

What are the alternatives to buying – and how are operators supported after delivery?

Alternatives include buying new, rental or leasing models, and contract manufacturing if you only need capacity for a short period or a single project. At Asset-Trade a dedicated project manager guides you through the 7-step purchase process and remains available for technical and commissioning questions after delivery. Questions about instructing your operators – for example via the manufacturer or the previous operating team – are best clarified before the purchase.
