🤝 Strategic partnership for the future of PUR coating: We are joining forces with The Cannon Group to further advance polyurethane (PUR) coating technology — known as clearmelt at ENGEL. In the clearmelt process, thermoplastic components are coated with a durable PUR surface directly in the machine after the injection moulding process. This enables the efficient and cost-effective integration of PUR into industrial manufacturing. By partnering with Cannon, we are not only optimising processes but also unlocking new possibilities for sustainable and efficient production solutions: ✅ Seamlessly integrated solution combining injection moulding & clearmelt technology ✅ Enhanced process reliability & reproducibility ✅ Expanded design freedom for innovative applications 🎯 Our goal: Even more efficient and sustainable manufacturing processes for our customers! 💚  👉 Read more in our press release: https://lnkd.in/djF_N_JD #injectionmoulding #polyurethane #plasticsengineering #manufacturinginnovation #sustainableproduction

Future-Proofing Production – from CC200 to CC300: When KIENBACHER received a major new order, it became clear: Their trusted duo 23050/2700 needed an upgrade to keep up with high-capacity production. The solution? A seamless transition from CC200 to CC300, ensuring long-term stability, new digital capabilities, and greater efficiency. But how do you upgrade a machine without halting production? 35,000 pre-produced parts, extra shifts, and a well-planned upgrade later, Kienbacher is set for another 20 years of success. 💪 👉 Read the full story now! #InjectionMoulding #MachineUpgrade #ManufacturingExcellence #PlasticsIndustry #SmartProduction

Learn in this blog article how to nevertheless reduce your set-up times by 20 %. 🚀 This impressive result was achieved at the Swiss company Interroll Group with the help of our digital set-up assistant. 💡 With intuitive step-by-step guidance and standardised processes, even less experienced operators are now able to complete tool changes efficiently and without errors. ✅   Want to boost your productivity and competitiveness? 📖 Check out the full story here: https://lnkd.in/dRiN5Cyh   #bethefirst #injectionmoulding #smartproduction #efficiency #digitaltransformation

 💉Are you producing medical components for international use? Have complex validation processes already effected your projects? Then this one is for you: 👉 These roller clamp housings produced by B. Braun Gruppe are used internationally, thus validation according to EN-ISO and MDR for Europe and according to FDA regulations for the USA is required.   As with most medical products high precision and a stable manufacturing process with high repeatability are essential for this housing. Therefore the production is being carried out on all-electric injection moulding machines from our e-mac series with the help of the digital assistance system iQ weight control. 💡 ➡️ Learn in this blog article which 4 steps are necessary for a solid validation process and how we solved this challenge together with B. Braun achieving a measurable improvement in production quality: https://lnkd.in/dzmXknYq #MedicalManufacturing #InjectionMoulding #RegulatoryCompliance #ProcessValidation #ISO13485 #FDACompliance Pictures of part © B.
