MATRA 3438: Italian Die-Casting Excellence in the Industry 5.0 Era

The MATRA 3438 is a machine designed to define a new standard in the production of small-scale components made from light alloys. In today’s industrial landscape, the challenge for foundries is no longer just about raw power, but the ability to combine extreme precision, speed, and sustainability. At AGRATI AEE, we have developed the perfect response to this demand.

A step forward towards the future of production

The MATRA 3438 project is not merely a range extension; it is the result of a complete redesign aimed at “smart profitability”. Proudly made in Italy, this compact machine integrates the cutting-edge technology that has made the AGRATI-AEE brand a global benchmark.

The heart of this innovation lies in the Ecodrive3 injection system. In a sector where millimetric control of injection phases determines final product quality and scrap reduction, Ecodrive3 offers total monitoring, allowing even the most complex geometries to be managed with ease.

Technical performance: where numbers make the difference

For a production engineer, technical data serves as a machine’s true calling card. The MATRA 3438 impresses with its responsiveness: the injection group valve response time is a mere 10 ms. This execution speed, combined with a maximum injection speed of 7 m/s, allows for cycle time optimisation like never before.

Analysing the capacities of the clamping and injection groups, the parameters confirm the robustness of the design:

  • Clamping force: 135 Ton.
  • Maximum pressure on metal: 906 kg/cm².
  • Maximum adjustable injection force: 11.208 Ton.
  • Maximum shot weight (Aluminium): 1.13 kg.

Contained within an overall footprint of just 4293 x 1893 x 2116 mm, these specifications make the MATRA 3438 the perfect solution for those with optimised floor space who refuse to compromise on performance.

Sustainability and Industry 5.0: investing in tomorrow

Today, energy efficiency is a fundamental requirement—not only to reduce environmental impact but also to access fiscal incentives linked to Industry 5.0. The MATRA 3438 has been engineered with an exclusive motor/pump system that maximises operational sustainability.

Choosing this technology means adopting an approach that looks toward the next ten years of production. Full compliance with new industrial standards ensures your investment remains competitive, reducing energy costs and enhancing your corporate image in the eyes of increasingly environmentally-conscious partners and clients.

Why choose the MATRA 3438?

Beyond the technical specifications, what surprises most about the MATRA 3438 is its balance between ease of use and a competitive price. It is a “fast” machine—not only in its production cycle but also in its return on investment (ROI).

In summary, the MATRA 3438 offers:

  • Superior precision thanks to Ecodrive3 control.
  • Italian reliability guaranteed by the experience of AGRATI-AEE srl.
  • Energy efficiency ready for Industry 5.0 challenges.

A new generation of machines has been born, ready to take your foundry one step forward towards the future.
