Application Engineering in Plastic Injection Moulding
Optimum Operation of Injection Moulding Machines Thanks to Application Support
The application engineering team supports you in your plastic injection moulding projects with complete solutions. We check the feasibility of application ideas and find the right concept for you and optimise your existing production processes. Our injection moulding application engineers offer trials at our technology centres, at partner locations, or directly at your site.
With us as your technology partner, you have access to know-how that is unique in the industry. We don't look at your challenges in isolation, but as part of the entire process. We combine the many years of injection moulding know-how of our application engineering with other disciplines such as automation, control technology and development. Together, we design an individual injection moulding solution for you, from conception to implementation.
Our application engineering team will work with you to determine the optimum plastic injection moulding process for your products. With the right technology, you shorten the cycle time, save energy and protect your machine. Whether multi-component or foam injection moulding, surface technology or injection-compression moulding. We will find the most efficient option for your products in over 20 proven technologies. Application engineering supports you in the responsible use of plastics. For a sustainable circular economy.
In our nine technology centres worldwide, you have the opportunity to test and optimise your processes with injection moulding machines, technology cells, additional equipment and moulds. Fine details in the injection moulding process often determine whether the product meets the requirements or not. Our experienced injection moulding application engineers take the time to find out these subtleties for you.

An Overview of Our User Support in the Field of Plastic Injection Moulding
We do not look at the challenges individually, but in the overall process. We accompany your projects from design to series product. The goal: an efficient, stable and cost-effective manufacturing solution.
Evaluate component and requirement profile
Compare concepts and define injection moulding processes
Select machine series and design injection moulding machine
Optimally coordinate machine & peripherals
Run-in, analyse and optimise production process
Identify and exploit energy saving potentials
Making digital products work for process optimisation
Result:
More stable injection moulding processes
Shorter cycle times
Improved component quality
Would you like to improve your part quality and process stability and shorten the cycle time during ongoing injection moulding processes?
We support you with the application technology service performance.boost and other comprehensive offers.
Our services:
Analyse challenges in critical processes
Participate in the initial commissioning of the manufacturing cell
Conduct training on special technologies
Present, test and introduce assistance systems
Increase process performance by optimising settings
Reduce cycle time by optimising machine movements
Do you want to manufacture a new component and select the right technology for it?
We support you as a development partner in the implementation of new ideas. Your requirements are the guideline for application engineering when processing specific tasks in plastic injection moulding.
Our services:
Determine whether the planned production concept for the new component is promising
Define a production concept
Trials to answer questions about feasibility, suitability of materials and process control
Evaluate component design statuses in order to identify possible difficulties in production at an early stage
Sampling of the tool to identify optimisation potentials
Optimise cycle time by parallelising machine movements
Set machine-friendly production without loss of productivity
Result: stable production process optimised for the lowest possible energy consumption
You would like to check whether the injection moulding machine together with the mould delivers optimum results or whether a special injection moulding process is particularly suitable for your component?
You can carry out application tests in our technology centres, using moulds which we supply for testing, or even with your own injection mould.
Our services:
Carry out screening trials with special technologies to better assess how well they are suited to your applications
Testing the potential of machines with higher performance capacity
Optimise quality in plastic injection moulding production
Shorten cycle time with support from application technology
Investigate process limits with different materials
Test automation solution in combination with your tool
Reduce scrap rates in existing injection moulding processes
Sampling tools to produce prototypes and determine process settings for series operation
