How Many Injection Molding Machines Can A 10HP Chiller Support?

Many factory owners make chiller sizing mistakes!

Improper matching leads to insufficient cooling, high defective rates, or over-sized units that waste massive electricity.

Today we fully explain: how many injection machines a 10HP chiller can support & the difference between water-cooled and air-cooled models.

Accurate Sizing Formula (No More Pitfalls)

▪️ Standard Mold Cooling | 1:100 Ratio

A 10HP chiller steadily supports injection machines under 1000 tons for regular production.

▪️ High-Speed Injection Machines | 1:50 Ratio

High-speed machines generate far more heat and run continuously.

Do not use standard sizing! Reduce the matched tonnage to avoid insufficient cooling and production limits.

⚡ Summer Power Consumption Comparison

Water-cooled: 7-8 kWh per hour, excellent energy-saving performance

️ Air-cooled: 8-9 kWh per hour, higher power consumption in hot weather

Cost-Effective Selection Tips

Southern regions: Choose water-cooled chillers. Long-term power savings are considerable.

Northern regions: Choose air-cooled chillers. Avoid pipeline freezing and complicated winter maintenance.
