Engel injection moulding large machines
When you need a flexible production cell with minimum
REN106
space requirements the Engel duo with its
individually configured two-platen clamping unit
is the proven solution. It's compact design with a
stable, low-friction platen guidance on carriages
ensures optimum platen parallelism and sensitive
mould protection. This guarantees a high level of
operational safety and perfect part quality.
Flexible machine layout
The ideal machine for any task. The Engel duo is
designed to enable optimum guidance of all media
supply lines within the clamping unit, especially towards
the moving platen. This ensures maximum
flexibility in configuring, re-adapting or expanding
your production cell.
Improved clamping force
Whether 350 or 5500 tonnes the versatility is
there. Thanks to a narrow graduation of clamping
unit sizes, the Engel duo series allows you to
choose exactly the machine type, which will deliver
optimum results. The clamping unit ensures an
effective and quick clamping force build-up with
four short pressure pads. Also, iQ clamp control
and wide and extra-wide platen options enable
smart and cost-efficient manufacturing of larger
parts.
Trouble-free production
Fast movements and positive locking offer
extremely short dry cycle times. The Engel duo
employs a synchronously controlled, maintenance
free locking which reaches particularly
quickly and precisely into the tie-bars’ ring groove.
Since the tie-bars have no contact with the
moving platen, there is no friction and this saves
energy with every movement.
Maximum cost effectiveness
The Engel duo impresses with its energy-efficient,
sustainable design. For example, it minimises
pressure levels during movements by means of
a smart hydraulic drive system. Furthermore, the
moving platen is optimally supported and guided
on carriages. The result is improved precision
guiding even with heavy moulds, minimum mould
wear and perfect mould protection, enabling you
to keep your maintenance costs low at all times.
