With a new Packaging Centre, injection moulding machine manufacturer Engel wants to support its customers in further increasing the performance of their production systems and ensuring their competitiveness. The new technology and competence centre has now been officially inaugurated.<\/strong><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

At two locations - Schwertberg and St. Valentin - there are Production cells for a wide range of packaging requirements<\/strong> ready for use. Including All-electric e cap high-performance machines<\/a> for the production of beverage closures and flip-top lids, e-speed machines for thin-walled containers and buckets and duo speed two-platen machines for large containers.<\/p>

In addition, all-electric e-mac injection moulding machines can be used in the Engel technical centre. This series is also increasingly being used for packaging applications in the medium performance segment, many times for the processing of recyclate<\/strong>.<\/p>

\u201eCycle time and energy efficiency are the most important efficiency indicators in the packaging industry. Engel's injection moulding solutions are world leaders in both areas. In the new Packaging Centre, we are demonstrating exactly that. We invite our customers to put our injection moulding machines through their paces here.\u201c<\/p>

Energy efficiency, the circular economy and digitalisation are the central themes addressed by the new Packaging Center. The injection moulding machines are all equipped with intelligent assistance systems from Engel's inject 4.0 programme.<\/strong> For example, with iQ weight control, which recognises fluctuations in shot volume and material viscosity and automatically compensates for them in the same cycle.<\/p>

Recent test series have shown that the software achieves significant quality improvements in high-performance applications with very short cycle times. Another example is iQ flow control, which regulates temperature differences in the individual cooling circuits to a set value. This assistance system thus ensures constant temperature control conditions and at the same time significantly reduces the energy required for temperature control.<\/strong><\/p>

\u201eThe key to high energy efficiency lies in the optimum interaction of the individual system components. We adapt the overall system individually to the requirements of the product to be produced<\/strong>\u201c, says Lhota. With a wide range of packaging injection moulding machines Angels<\/a> offers the optimum drive technology for every application. From fully electric to hybrid and servo-hydraulic.<\/p>

For a practical performance test that includes analyses of cycle time and energy efficiency, customers can bring their own tools and materials to the new Packaging Centre<\/strong>. Engel will also be providing many moulds from a wide range of product groups on site. There will also be a wide range of peripheral systems from various partner companies as well as automation solutions both from our own company and from partners such as Campetella and Beck Automation.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Around 300 Engel customers and partners accepted the invitation to Schwertberg and St. Valentin for the opening of the Packaging Centre. There were presentations, panel discussions and live machine exhibits at both locations. For example, Prof Edward Kosior from Nextek reported on the Opportunities of rPP for the production of food packaging<\/strong>.<\/p>

In keeping with this presentation, Engel presented a world premi\u00e8re. For the first time injection moulding of polypropylene recycled from post-consumer collections<\/strong> presented to the public. \u201eWe have closed another material cycle,\u201c says Christoph Lhota.<\/p>
