Injection Molding Machines

Used Milacron Vista 165: Sell or Buy at Auction

Milacron is an American injection molding machine manufacturer, one of the largest and oldest in the industry. Milacron's Roboshot (all-electric) and Vista (hydraulic) injection molding machines are common in North American plastics molding shops. Known for reliable performance and domestic parts support.

The Milacron Vista 165 is a 165-ton hydraulic injection molding machine from the Vista series, a line that traces back to Cincinnati Milacron and still turns up in the used market listed as a Cincinnati Milacron press. At 165 tons of clamp force it sits at the small-to-mid end of the range, a size that runs the everyday small and mid-size parts most custom shops produce without the operating cost of a larger machine. The Vista pairs a hydraulic clamp and injection package with Milacron's microprocessor-based process control, and because so many of these machines were installed across North American plastics plants, replacement parts and technicians who know the platform are straightforward to source. Custom injection molders, consumer products manufacturers, and medical device plastics producers keep presses this size busy as primary or support machines for smaller tooling, valuing Milacron's domestic parts and service network over reaching for higher tonnage they rarely use. At auction, KD Auctions markets machines like this Vista 165 to its network of 500,000+ industry contacts, and well-documented units offered with tooling and maintenance records consistently draw the strongest interest from molding shops seeking a proven, lower-cost alternative to new equipment.
