About Used Rubber Injection Molding Machines
Rubber injection molding machines (also known as rubber injection moulding machines) are specialized for processing elastomeric materials including natural rubber, EPDM, nitrile, neoprene, and other thermoset rubber compounds. Unlike plastic injection molding, rubber injection molding uses heat to cure (vulcanize) the material rather than cool it, requiring different screw designs, barrel configurations, and temperature control systems.
Used rubber injection machines feature cold-runner or cold-pot systems to prevent premature curing, specialized feed systems for strip or granulated rubber, and precision temperature control to ensure proper vulcanization. These machines serve the automotive, aerospace, medical, industrial seal, and O-ring markets.
Meadoworks stocks used rubber injection molding equipment from Desma, REP, Engel, LWB Steinl, and Maplan. Whether you need a rubber injection machine for automotive seals, medical components, or industrial gaskets, contact us at 800-323-0307.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between rubber and plastic injection molding?
Rubber injection molding processes thermoset elastomers that cure (vulcanize) with heat, while plastic injection molding processes thermoplastics that solidify by cooling. Rubber injection machines use cold runners to prevent premature curing, specialized screw designs for elastomers, and different temperature control approaches. The machines look similar but have significant differences in screws, barrels, and controls.
How much does a used rubber injection molding machine cost?
Used rubber injection molding machine prices range from $25,000-$75,000 for small machines to $100,000-$400,000 for large production rubber injection machines. Desma and REP machines tend to command premium resale values. Contact Meadoworks at 800-323-0307 for current pricing on rubber injection moulding machines.
