ENGEL at PTXPO 2025

After a two-year hiatus, PTXPO is finally back - and ENGEL is ready to take the stage. ENGEL North America delivers a comprehensive range of solutions for plastics processing, specializing in advanced injection molding machines for thermoplastics and elastomers, along with a wide array of automation technologies. At PTXPO 2025 in Rosemont, IL, from March 18-20 at booth #409, we’ll showcase an LSR application on an all-electric e-mac and introduce the space-saving e-mac slim, which made its North American debut at NPE 2024.

Thanks to our valued partners, these innovative exhibits are coming to life - offering real-world solutions designed to enhance efficiency and precision in plastics manufacturing.

ENGEL is pushing the boundaries of foaming at PTXPO 2025. One of the highlights at our booth is the e-mac slim edition (310 US tons) all-electric injection molding machine, paired with the viper 12 linear robot - a combination designed for precision and efficiency. Our live demo, in collaboration with Moxietec, will showcase a section pallet test part, highlighting the benefit of Moxietec foam technology - a next generation foaming solution that enhances material efficiency and sustainability. Unlike traditional structural foaming, Moxietec foam technology optimizes weight reduction while minimizing resin usage and energy consumption, all on a standard injection molding machine with no specialized equipment required.

This demonstration is made possible by our incredible partners:

• Moxietec – Technology provider for advanced foaming solutions, including mold, shut-off nozzle & Foaming Additive Package

• Movacolor – Volumetric feeder for precise material mixing

• ExxonMobil Signature Polymers – Material supply

• Lenzkes Clamping Tools – Clamping solutions

Liquid Silicone Rubber (LSR) is essential for demanding applications requiring high precision, durability, and flexibility. At PTXPO 2025, ENGEL is demonstrating a fully automated LSR molding process, highlighting the efficiency and accuracy of all-electric technology.

This live exhibit features the ENGEL e-mac 170/110, manufacturing a silicone nipple for a baby pacifier on a Roembke mold. The system is fully automated with an ENGEL viper 12 robot and equipped with custom EOAT by Roembke, ensuring seamless handling of parts and overflow for an optimized production process.

We’re excited to present this demonstration in partnership with these leading experts:

• Roembke Manufacturing and Design – Mold & EOAT

• Shin-Etsu Silicones of America – Material

• ELMET – Dosing unit

Join us at booth #409 at North America’s leading molding and moldmaking event in the Midwest and talk to our team of experts! We can’t wait to see you there.
