More Power for Demanding Cooling Processes

At Fakuma 2024, ENGEL unveils the latest model of its successful temperature water manifold: the eco-flomo XL. This larger version of the proven eco-flomo is designed for production environments requiring significantly higher volumes of cooling water, making it ideal for large-scale applications in plastics processing.

Compared to the standard version, the eco-flomo XL offers substantially higher flow rates, making it optimally suited to the needs of larger production facilities. While the original eco-flomo system is designed for applications with lower to medium cooling demands, the eco-flomo XL now supports effective cooling with flow rates of up to 100 l/min, making it perfect for very large moulds and high production volumes. It features a 2-inch inlet and 1-inch circuit connections, ensuring improved process stability and increased energy efficiency by eliminating flow restrictions.

ENGEL’s commitment to optimising temperature control processes is based on over 15 years of intensive research and development in this field. Recognising that temperature control errors remain one of the most common causes of scrap in injection moulding production – and that cooling accounts for over 40% of total energy consumption – ENGEL has continuously developed its product platform for integrated, electronically monitored process temperature control. This wealth of experience and dedication to improvement is clearly reflected in the eco-flomo XL.

The eco-flomo XL is available with multiple circuit options, providing high flexibility for adapting to different production environments. Its robust construction, featuring a brass manifold, ensures a long service life and easy maintenance. Additionally, the seamless integration with existing ENGEL control systems, such as the CC300, enhances operational convenience and ease of use.

An additional key feature of the eco-flomo XL is its enhanced monitoring and control of temperature circuits. By accurately measuring and displaying flow rates and temperature differentials for each individual circuit on the machine’s display, operators gain a clear overview of the entire cooling process. This allows for the early detection of deviations and enables quick corrective action to maintain consistently high production quality.

Visitors to Fakuma 2024 can experience the benefits of this new temperature control system at ENGEL’s Expert Corner. ENGEL experts will be on hand to provide detailed insights into the eco-flomo XL’s functionality and specific applications.
