MAX 18S
The MAX-18 S is our manual plastic extruder with analog control: robust, efficient and focused on the essentials.
Strong welds without complications
It creates strong bonds in plastics like PE and PP without requiring a large machine. It's perfect for manufacturing medium-sized parts or making frequent repairs with excellent results.
Compact and lightweight for working anywhere
Its size is a huge help on construction sites or in confined spaces. You can move, rotate, and position it effortlessly to weld comfortably in almost any position.
Precise control for better finishes
The temperature control and stable flow ensure even, clean, and professional-looking soldering. This reduces the likelihood of errors that could waste your time.
Ideal for technicians seeking productivity
It's easy to learn and allows you to work for several hours with good performance. This translates into greater efficiency and more projects completed without stress.

TIPS MAX-18S
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
New equipment has a European connection; ideally, you should have a European female connector. If that's not the case, we'll show you how to connect it to the American system.
To connect it, we share the following specifications:
IMPORTANT:
- Consider the NEMA in which only the physical ground should be connected (Image).
- Ideally, in the industry, you should use a separate thermal switch from your load center (the amperage range can be from 20 to 30 Amps). If you have any questions, please contact technical support.
GENERATOR CONNECTION
In the Americas, generators have a 240v female outlet, and you must identify the NEMA.
Important:
- Once you have identified the NEMA, you must obtain the male that corresponds to the NEMA.
- You just need to connect L1 and L2, which is the equipment voltage, and add "T" ground.
- When purchasing a generator, you should pay attention to 3 important electrical characteristics:
- Watts
- Voltage
- The most important one is how many Amps it delivers per phase.
We recommend having an extension where you can have a MULTI-CONTACT module so you can connect your equipment independently.
MAINTENANCE
How often should you perform maintenance on your equipment?
- Deductive
Applied by the operator
- Tighten the connections periodically.
- Clean the filters daily.
- Purge the device every time you finish your shift.
- It is important to purge with natural polyethylene welding every month.
- Before connecting your equipment, you should leave your generator running for ten minutes to allow it to stabilize.
- Once 10 minutes have passed, every generator should deliver 235 to 240 volts.
- Before doing this, we suggest you always check your line (L1) to ground with a multimeter and L2 using the same procedure; each phase should deliver above 110 volts. If it is less than 70 volts in any of the phases, do not connect your equipment under any circumstances; send your generator to a service center.
