Injection moulding parameters under control

Parameter-Limits for stable production processes

Parameter-Limits allows you to effectively safeguard your injection moulding processes. The tool allows you to set individual tolerance limits for injection moulding parameters, movement and heating profiles. This ensures consistent product quality, minimises incorrect settings and rejects, and process parameters always remain within the optimum range - ideal for reliable and validated production. The Parameter-Limits function allows you to add up to 200 process parameters such as dosing volume, holding pressure time and cooling time.

Your Advantages with Parameter-Limits
Security for validated processes

Process reliability is not only crucial in medical technology. Parameter-Limits protects validated settings so that unintentional changes are avoided. Quality remains assured. You can prove compliance with the strict quality requirements to your customers at any time.

Support for skills shortages

Parameter-Limits simplify the operation of injection moulding machines so that even less experienced employees can work safely and efficiently. The defined tolerance ranges for the injection moulding parameters reduce the risk of operating errors, as the machine operators are given clear limits. This keeps production processes stable and error-free.

Consistent quality despite fluctuations

Parameter-Limits make it possible to keep important injection moulding parameters within the optimum range. As a result, product quality remains consistently high, even if raw materials or ambient conditions fluctuate. This ensures the consistent quality of your injection moulded parts and reduces the need for time-consuming quality controls.

Error reduction thanks to defined limit values for injection moulding parameters

Parameter-Limits minimise the risk of incorrect settings thanks to clearly defined limit values. Operating errors that lead to production rejects and material waste can be effectively prevented. You save time and money and can rely on smooth production.

Authorised settings for greater process reliability

Parameter-Limits can be used to define specific tolerance ranges for injection moulding parameters that can only be changed by authorised employees. This control protects the injection moulding process from unintentional or unauthorised interventions. This ensures maximum process reliability and stability in your injection moulding production.

Test Parameter-Limits now!

Activate the Parameter-Limits function for 50 hours on your ENGEL injection moulding machine and experience the benefits for yourself. Your ENGEL subsidiary will be happy to advise you!

The Parameter-Limits assistance function allows up to 200 process parameters to be added. The most important 15 injection moulding parameters are predefined (created by customer survey). Adaptation and expansion by an authorised process technician is possible at any time depending on the mould.

The parameter limit values can only be changed by users with authorisation level 11. All input values are saved at the base level by default.

There is no restriction. All units are prepared.

The Parameter-Limits program can be activated on every ENGEL injection moulding machine (delivered since 2022) for 50 hours on a trial basis and can be permanently activated at any time via a licence.

    Easily define process window and quality via Parameter-Limits
    30 June 2022

    The precondition for a stable production process and consistently high product quality is the right settings for all process parameters on the injection moulding machine. But mistakes still happen time and time again. The new Parameter-Limits feature offers a remedy. It helps the injection moulder keep the parameters constant within a process window.
