Clearview's injection molding machine enclosures are designed for a healthier, safer, and improved molding environment. The APSX-PIM V3 is America's favorite desktop injection molding machine — a fully automatic horizontal press that melts engineering plastics at up to 330ºC, cycle after cycle. Automatic 60-second cycles mean continuous fume generation, and our enclosure captures those fumes at the source and exhausts them outside through the 4″ exhaust port. The APSX-PIM V3 enclosure dimensions are: 48″ Wide x 20″ Deep x 24″ Tall
The APSX-PIM V3 runs unattended production — 30 cc shots of ABS, PC, nylon, POM, and more at up to 330ºC, all day long. That is exactly the duty cycle where fume control stops being optional. Our enclosure lets you exhaust VOCs outside through the 4″ exhaust port, add our optional powered exhaust fan, and keep dust off your molds and pellets between runs.
Main Features:
✅ MOLDING ENVIRONMENT — A dustless, fume controlled enclosure for a healthier injection molding workspace.
✅ Commercial Grade 1/4″ Acrylic or Heavy Duty Polycarbonate
✅ SIMPLE ASSEMBLY — Screw together design that assembles in minutes, built around your machine.
✅ ACCESS DOOR — A generously sized, hinged door with 3D printed magnetic door stops for mold changes, hopper refills, and part removal.
✅ EXHAUST PORT — Exhaust fumes outside with our 4″ exhaust port and add our optional power fan exhaust.
✅ CABLE MANAGEMENT — A wide rubber grommet passes power and data cables through neatly — the V3 runs on a standard wall outlet with no air or hydraulics needed.
✅ FULL VISIBILITY — Watch every automatic cycle from any angle through optically clear panels.
Each enclosure is designed and built in house in Sacramento, California by people that understand desktop manufacturing and are skilled to make your molding experience great.
✅ Awesome Performance — Clear Plexiglass is a durable, optically clear plastic that creates the perfect environment for your injection molder.
✅ Reduce noise, smell, and fumes that are part of injection molding. This creates a healthier, cleaner working environment.
✅ SMALL BUSINESS OWNED AND MADE IN THE USA — We are appreciative of your support and offer great service to make sure you are happy. Our enclosures come with a 100% satisfaction guarantee and a 1 year warranty against manufacturer defects.
The V3's horizontal layout needs width, not height: at 42.9″ long and 250 lbs, it lives on a 4-foot bench. Our 48″ wide cabinet wraps the full machine with clearance at both ends, and the front door gives you direct access to the clamp and mold area for mold changes and part retrieval. If you run the optional APSX stand, ask us about a floor-format version.
Our main objective was to give your machine an unobstructed view from any angle while containing fumes at the source. An enclosure captures fumes where they're made and sends them outside, instead of scrubbing them after they've spread through your shop.
We also have options for our Carbon Air Scrubbing Filter and vibration dampening feet. The Carbon Air Scrubbing Filter uses a silent fan to pass air through a carbon filter to reduce fumes for shops that can't duct outside. Our Vibration Dampening Feet use a multi-material lamination that dissipates vibrations at 5 different levels.
We offer a black/white color option for the brackets and fittings. With your purchase, we also offer STL access to these files so you can print fittings in the colors you want. ADDITIONALLY, you get STL files of future attachments and accessories for your enclosure. If we come up with a mod, you get access to it for free!
Buying options:
1 — Enclosure kit: Includes all the parts you need including hardware, printed parts, magnets, and commercial grade acrylic panels.
2 — Enclosure kit with Carbon Filter: Our nearly silent, air scrubbing filter reduces fumes and smells for those in sensitive environments.
3 — Panels and hardware only + you print parts: We send panels, hardware (screws + magnets), and STL files so you can print in your own colorway.
Need a different size or style to fit your setup? No problem. We can build an enclosure for your machine. Just DM us and tell us about your machine or desired dimensions.
FAQ
Will the APSX-PIM V3 fit?
Yes. The V3 measures 42.9″ x 9.8″ x 15″ (109 x 25 x 38 cm) and our 48″ x 20″ x 24″ cabinet houses it with clearance on every side. The kit assembles around your machine — no lifting the 250 lb press through a door.
Does the enclosure interfere with automatic operation?
No. The V3 is all-electric with no compressed air or hydraulics — only the power cable passes through the grommet, and the machine runs its automatic cycles fully enclosed while you watch through the clear panels.
What is your return policy?
We have a 30 day return policy. Unused, undamaged panels that still have the masking fully attached are eligible for a full refund less return shipping. If panels are damaged (after shipment) or the protective mask layer has been removed, we cannot offer a refund. For best results in ensuring fitment, consider at least partially assembling with the mask on.
We can ship to virtually any address in the world. International orders include brokerage fees for customs. Duties, VAT, taxes, and other fees may need to be collected prior to delivery. Every country and local is different so we cannot provide an exact estimate of these fees.
When you place an order, we will estimate shipping and delivery dates for you based on the availability of your items and the shipping options you choose. Depending on the shipping provider you choose, shipping date estimates may appear on the shipping quotes page.
Please also note that the shipping rates for many items we sell are weight-based. The weight of any such item can be found on its detail page. To reflect the policies of the shipping companies we use, all weights will be rounded up to the next full pound.
