Once again, we needed a modern injection molding machine that was efficient and reliable. After considering the available options, we decided again to purchase an injection molding machine from Engel.
The Engel 60t, the third member of our injection molding fleet, has a clamping force of 60 tonnes, as its name suggests. The machine does its job excellently. The background to the purchase is covered in detail in this article.
Considerations we took into account when purchasing the injection molding machine
Outstanding performance, reliability, and sustainability as possible. These were the main considerations when we made our decision. This was one of the reasons why we chose Engel’s 60t injection molding machine.
Engel’s position as the global market leader in plastic machinery was a big call sign from the start. Other factors in favor of the Austrian manufacturer were its relative proximity, the very positive brand image, and our positive experience of using the first injection molding machines.
Let’s take a closer look at the technical characteristics of modern Engel injection molding machines.
Basic features of modern Engel injection moulding machines
Designed and built by Engel, the injection molding machines are versatile in design, size, and technical equipment to meet the customer’s needs. They’ve got a forward-looking solution for even the most specific request.
Engel injection molding machines combine the optimum ratio of tried and tested solutions with highly innovative, ground-breaking injection molding technology. As far as the range of available clamping forces is concerned, there is a choice between 280 kN and 55 000 kN.
Besides, hydraulic and fully electric models are available in both horizontal and vertical versions. Added to this is the value for money of Engel injection molding machines, complemented by improvements in environmental protection and sustainability.
About the environmentally friendly application of the Engel 60t injection molding machine
Promoting a circular economy and the use of biofuels has been a conscious goal of our operations for many years. In this spirit, we are not only trying to put recycling into practice but also to make our production processes sustainable in other ways.
This is one of the reasons why we decided to purchase and use the Engel 60t injection molding machine. The important thing to know about these state-of-the-art injection molding machines is that the parts and products come out of the machine in a finished form.
In other words, we can proactively reduce the amount of waste generated, thereby supporting environmental considerations.
