Simply more: Allrounder More!

Arburg is launching a new series for production-efficient multicomponent injection moulding. The Allrounder More with its  particularly flexible configuration can now be perfectly adapted to specific customer and market requirements. It offers more  space due to larger mould dimensions and ejector strokes, and greater distances between tie-bars, more modularity with  flexible injection positions for injection units, and more ease of use with plug-in media couplings and optimised material feed.  The new series will be on show live for the first time at Fakuma this October.

TRUMPF prints dental prostheses automatically in multi-shift operation

At the world's leading trade fair for the dental industry, IDS in Cologne, Germany, high-tech company TRUMPF will soon be  showcasing solutions for series production in 3D printing.

Optimised tracking planning for shorter cycle times

ENGEL is expanding its range of smart assistance systems for Fakuma 2021. The new iQ motion control enables ENGEL viper  series linear robots to make a safe early start combined with fully automatically optimised track planning. The prerequisite for  parallel motion is that the injection moulding machine and robot share a database. This means double benefits for users,  through time savings in the teach-in and shorter production cycles. The efficiency gains are particularly clear in  applicationswith large mould opening strokes.
