Used Billion Injection Moulding Machines for Sale 37

Billion grew up inside Europe's densest plastics cluster, and its machines reflect Oyonnax priorities: technical mouldings, multi-material capability, and process control refined for the eyewear, cosmetics packaging, and precision parts the Plastics Valley exports. On the used market that heritage gives Billion presses a particular constituency among French and Swiss technical moulders, with the Hercule line's rigid clamps and the Dixit control generations (Dixit 2 and 3 marking the eras) known quantities to a deep pool of regional technicians.

The range logic: Hercule hydraulic presses across the small and mid tonnages dominate used supply, with two-platen H-series machines at larger forces, Select electrics addressing cleanroom and precision duty, and bi-material configurations, where the brand's expertise concentrates, forming a specialist sub-market whose second injection units add real value for buyers with matching work. Haitian's acquisition of the brand secured parts continuity while shifting new production strategy, which makes documented service history the used buyer's anchor. Against used Arburg or Engel machines of equivalent tonnage, Billion typically trades at a meaningful discount that regional service familiarity converts into a bargain, particularly within France.

Buying a used Billion injection moulding machines: what to check

Standard press discipline leads: hydraulic condition through dry cycling with pressure stability watched, platen parallelism and tie-bar stretch checked, and the toggle or two-platen clamp inspected for wear at its pivots and locking elements. Verify screw and barrel state via purge test or documented measurements.

Test the Dixit control completely, with all pages, process recording, and any Euromap robot interfaces, and confirm parameter backups transfer, since control familiarity is part of what you are buying. On bi-material machines, cycle both injection units and verify the rotary or transfer system. Check heater zones, core-pull circuits, and safety systems against current standards, and ask for the machine's moulding history and maintenance file.
