Injection moulding solutions for custom moulders

Frequent tool changes are a challenge for custom injection moulders. This is because they reduce the availability of injection moulding machines. Thanks to the tie-bar-less design of our victory and e-victory machine series, you can change your moulds in under 10 minutes. The absence of tie-bars makes it easier for the operator to access the mould during the set-up process.

The set-up assistant is a kind of checklist that guides the machine operator interactively through the individual steps required for the tool change. As far as possible, the set-up assistant processes the programme steps automatically. Manual work steps are acknowledged in the control system. This means that even less experienced employees can set up safely and without errors. The set-up assistant increases efficiency for experienced set-up teams.

If the colour or material is changed during the manufacture of plastic parts, streaks form on the component. Streaks are the result of mixing old and new material. It is therefore not possible to produce good parts for a certain period of time. We have developed the self-cleaning package to minimise this time and produce good parts again quickly. The modified screw tip enables you to change colours and materials quickly and easily. Your benefits: increased productivity and material savings.

The intelligent iQ weight control assistance system regulates every injection process during production. It corrects the injection volume and calculates the switchover point of the injection moulding process in the same shot. Fluctuations are compensated for in each shot. This reduces the scattering of the moulded part weight by up to 85 %. Your benefits in custom injection moulding: more stable processes, increased part quality, faster start-up after mould changes and exact repeat accuracy, even with recyclate applications.

To counteract the lack of space in your production hall, we have developed our compact HLi solution (High Level Integration). The conveyor belt of the system is integrated into the protective enclosure of the injection moulding machine. The robot is therefore also protected. Access to the mould area via the opposite operator side is maintained. The HLi solution also offers the option of installing additional peripheral devices under the conveyor belt. The result: a compact overall system for custom injection moulding without taking up unnecessary floor space.

From simple parts handling to complex production cells, we can supply you with a customised system. Our injection moulding systems are CE-certified ex works. The automation is fully integrated into the CC300 machine control system. The automation is programmed and parameterised on the control system - simply and safely using intuitive operating logic.

We don't just look at the injection moulding machine, but at the entire system. The combination of drive concept, temperature control, intelligent device communication and smart process control maximises the efficiency of your system. This allows you to reduce the power consumption and CO2 emissions of your injection moulding cell by up to 67%, depending on the application. You can save a further 20% energy with our energy efficiency packages.
