At K 2022, Jomar Corp. will introduce the 85-S Gen II injection blow machine with enhanced specs relative to the IntelliDrive 85-S unit that debuted at K 2016. For the Gen II unit, the clamp force was boosted from 72 to 76 tons and trigger-bar length from 25.75 to 26.7 in. Customers with 85-S machines can obtain a transfer head to run existing tooling on the new model.

Like previous IntelliDrive machines, the new unit has a servo-driven pump for the injection unit and variable-frequency drive (VFD) on the pump for the clamp, both designed to save energy, hydraulic oil and cooling water. Precise digital control is also said to prolong cylinder life and reduce the closing impact of the press on tooling, extending mold life. Dry-cycle time remains at 1.8 sec.
