Digital solutions in injection moulding

If deviations during injection moulding production occur, our digital solutions will react immediately, without affecting the cycle time. For example, the changeover point and the holding pressure profile are adjusted to current conditions shot by shot. This ensures consistently high product quality.

Our digital assistance tools determine the optimum production parameters during ongoing production, suggest them or set them automatically. These settings reduce energy and water consumption during temperature control. But alsominimise scrap and mould wear through optimised clamping force settings.

Recycled materials are naturally subject to greater batch fluctuations than virgin materials. The digital solutions from our ENGEL’s inject 4.0 programme help to significantly reduce influences on the process, automatically. Recyclates can thus be used for a wider range of applications than before. Additionally, our plastic recycling processes save CO₂ and costs.

Our digital solutions ensure more transparency in production by connecting the machine plant and third-party peripherals at multiple locations. In addition, you achieve even better utilisation and increased efficiency of the machinery through optimal capacity planning.

Digital assistance systems have to make it as easy as possible for the operator to be proficient in even the most complex applications. Our digital products simplify your daily work with the injection moulding machine. Therefore, errors during operation are reduced. They also support with set-up, start-up and shut-down of production.

ENGEL complies with the latest security standards for all digital solutions and works with uniform, secure and service-oriented communication interfaces such as OPC UA. You can rely on smooth and secure operation.
