About Anova
Anova builds precision injection molds and turnkey plastic product lines for high-volume manufacturing environments. The company has developed a reputation in the plastics tooling industry for engineering robust, high-cavitation mold systems capable of sustaining demanding production cycles across packaging and consumer goods applications.
Among Anova's most recognized offerings are multi-cavity closure stack molds, including configurations such as 64-cavity systems designed for standard packaging neck finishes like 38mm closures. Stack mold architecture allows molders to effectively double output per machine cycle without increasing press tonnage, making Anova tooling particularly attractive for high-throughput cap and closure production. Their product lines are engineered with interchangeable cavity components and optimized cooling to support consistent part quality over long production runs.
Anova molds are used primarily in the packaging sector, with applications spanning food and beverage closures, personal care caps, pharmaceutical packaging, and household product containers. The 38mm closure format is a widely adopted standard in the beverage and food industries, and Anova's high-cavitation stack molds are built to meet the cycle time and dimensional consistency requirements of these markets.
Buyers seeking used Anova molds and product lines on the secondary market are typically drawn by the proven production history of the tooling, the cost advantage over new mold builds, and the ability to acquire a validated, ready-to-run system. A used Anova closure stack mold with documented cavitation and neck finish specifications can be commissioned quickly, offering significant capital savings compared to commissioning new tooling from scratch.
