LS Mtron Participates in Plastimagen 2026 in Mexico, Establishes Local Tech Center


LS Group's industrial machinery and advanced components specialist, LS Mtron, announced its participation in the Plastimagen 2026 plastic industry exhibition held from November 10 to 13 at Centro Banamex in Mexico City.

At the exhibition, LS Mtron showcased two models: the electric injection molding machine 'LSG 170E' and the hydraulic hybrid injection molding machine 'LSG 380H.'

The LSG 170E is a 170-ton electric injection molding machine designed to produce reusable tableware sets, including forks, spoons, and knives. The company also demonstrated an automated process that covers everything from raw material supply to the removal of finished products.

The LSG 380H, a 380-ton hydraulic hybrid injection molding machine, is used to produce wine glasses from transparent materials.

Additionally, LS Mtron introduced its intelligent solution 'Molding 5.0,' which manages the quality of the injection process. This solution detects changes in the state of raw materials and external environments, helping to adjust production conditions for stable quality control.

LS Mtron has established a tech center in Apodaca, Mexico, to support customer trial production and technical consultations, enhancing its customer experience-oriented sales approach. This center is the third of its kind, following those in China and Korea, and features three permanent demonstration lines. Customers can conduct trial production free of charge before introducing equipment and mass production, allowing them to observe the production process firsthand.

Shin Jae-ho, President of LS Mtron, stated, "We have proven our capabilities by achieving a 10% market share in the North American injection molding machine market. Through this exhibition, we aim to expand our connections with Mexican customers and continue to grow in the global market beyond the Americas."
