Application Engineering for Injection Molding
Smooth Operation of Injection Molding Machines Thanks to Application Support
Our application engineering team supports you in your plastic injection molding projects with complete solutions. Our team checks the feasibility of application ideas and finds the right concept for you. We also optimize your existing production processes. Our injection molding application engineers offer trials at our technology centers, at partner locations, or directly at your site.
With ENGEL as your technology partner, you have access to know-how that is unique in the industry. We handle your challenges as part of the overall process. We combine the many years of injection molding knowledge of our application engineering with other disciplines such as automation, control technology and development. Together, we create an individual injection molding solution for you, from concept to implementation.
Our application engineering team will work together with you to identify the ideal plastic injection molding process for your parts. With the right technology, you can reduce cycle time, save energy and protect your machine- Whether multi-component or foam injection molding, surface technology or injection compression. We find the most efficient option for your parts out of our over 20 proven technologies. Application engineering supports you in the responsible use of plastics to ensure a sustainable circular economy.
In our nine technology centers worldwide, you have the opportunity to test and optimize your processes with injection molding machines, technology cells, auxiliary equipment and molds. Small details in the injection molding process often determine whether the part meets the requirements or not. Our experienced application engineers for plastics take the time to figure out these details for you.

An Overview of Our Application Support in Plastic Injection Molding
We do not look at challenges individually, but in the overall process. We support your projects from design to series product. The goal: an efficient, stable and cost-effective production solution.
Evaluate part and requirements
Compare concepts and define injection molding processes
Select machine series and design injection molding machine
Optimally coordinate machine & peripherals
Run, analyze and optimize production process
Identify and explore energy-saving potentials
Use digital products for process optimization
Result:
More stable injection molding processes
Shorter cycle times
Improved part quality
Do you want to improve your part quality and process stability and reduce cycle time during ongoing injection molding processes?
We support you with the application engineering service performance.boost and other comprehensive offerings.
Our services:
Analyze challenges in critical processes
Be involved in the start-up of the production cell
Training on special technologies
Present, test and implement assistance systems
Increase process performance by optimizing settings
Reduce cycle time by optimizing machine movements
Do you want to manufacture a new part and select the correct technology for it?
As your development partner we help you with the implementation of new ideas. Your requirements are the guideline for application engineering when working on specific tasks in plastic injection molding.
Our services:
Determine whether the planned production concept for the new part is promising
Define a production concept
Trials to answer questions about feasibility, suitability of materials and process management
Evaluate part design statuses to identify potential difficulties in production at an early stage
Sampling of the mold to identify optimization potentials
Optimize cycle time by sequencing machine movements
Set machine-friendly production without loss of productivity
Result: optimized and stable production process with the lowest possible energy consumption
Would you like to check if the injection molding machine together with the mold delivers optimum results or if a specific injection molding process is suitable for your part?
You can carry out application trials in our technology centers, using molds which we supply for testing or bring your own mold.
Our services:
We perform screening tests with special technologies to better evaluate how well they are suited for your applications
Testing the potential of machines with higher performance capacity
Optimize quality in plastic injection molding production
Reduce cycle time with support from application engineering
Investigate process limits with different materials
