Flexibility Our injection molding machines and their range of options give you a high degree of flexibility in the production of your plastic parts.

Our team helps transform companies by working closely with our customers to deliver exceptional products and experiences.

Another option is the set-up assistant. The menu-guided tool change program enables inexperienced injection molders to change a tool quickly, safely and easily.

The variety of plastic components is extensive. Daily production poses challenges like frequent tool and material changes and the efficient startup of new tools without compromising time or performance. The cost pressure is just as high, coupled with fast delivery times. Our injection molding solutions for contract manufacturers enable flexible and efficient production of your plastic parts.

In terms of automation, you save space with our HLi solution. The conveyor belt of the system is integrated directly into the safety guarding of the injection molding machine. Peripheral devices can be installed under the conveyor belt. This enables a compact overall system without taking up unnecessary floor space.

Borgmann GmbH relies on digital solutions from ENGEL to maximize process stability and repeatability in production. The result: an impressive increase in efficiency and product quality while reducing costs.

We offer a clamping force range from 28 to 5,500 tons. Even more on request. Our series includes fully hydraulic, all electric and hybrid machines, with horizontal or vertical designs. Depending on the component and customer requirements, we work with you to select the right machine concept for your injection molding contract manufacturing.

Frequent tool changes are a challenge for contract manufacturers in injection molding. This is because they reduce the availability of injection molding machine time. Thanks to the tie-bar-less design of our victory and e-victory machine series, you can change your molds in under 10 minutes. The absence of tie-bars makes it easier for the operator to access the mold area during the set-up process.

In addition to the iQ weight control digital assistance system, which compensates for material fluctuations, the recycling package can also be used. The package helps you to process clean regrind on the injection molding machine. This is because both the material feed and the feed area are adapted to these requirements.

The intelligent iQ weight control assistance system regulates every injection process during production. It corrects the injection volume and calculates the switchover point of the injection molding process in the same shot. Fluctuations are compensated for in each shot. This reduces the variation in the weight of the molded part by up to 85%. Your benefits in injection molding contract manufacturing: more stable processes, increased part quality, faster start-up after tool changes and exact repeat accuracy, even with recycled material applications.

Digitalization offers injection molding companies the opportunity to offset the lack of well-trained specialists. Operators can take full advantage of assistance systems when setting, controlling or analyzing process parameters.

To counteract the lack of space in your production hall, we have developed our compact HLi solution (High Level Integration). The conveyor belt of the system is integrated into the safety guarding of the injection molding machine. Therefore, the robot is protected. Access to the mold area via the non-operator side is still possible. The HLi solution also offers the option of installing additional peripheral devices under the conveyor belt. The result: a compact overall system for injection molding contract manufacturing without taking up unnecessary floor space.

Improved personalization, optimized ergonomics and hand buttons with haptic feedback are just some of the new features of the CC300 plus.

From simple parts handling to complex production cells, we can supply a system tailored to your requirements. Our injection molding systems are UL-certified. The automation is fully integrated into the CC300 machine control system, allowing programming and parameterization directly within the system.

Thanks to the team at SDI Plastics for your prompt service, reliability and attention to detail. My products now finally work!! Our time packing has been halved, our plastic products look 100 times better and I can now extend into markets I previously couldn’t. Its a pleasure to work with you.

Zechmayer GmbH was looking for a solution for a wide range of molds for different injection molding processes and shot weights. ENGEL supplied a complete system based on a single injection molding machine.

Batch changes or the use of recyclate led to parts that were not full at Lercher. With iQ weight control, stability was brought to the process.

The compact cell is similar. This customer-specific automation solution combines minimal space requirements with optimum accessibility.

Plastics production is becoming increasingly digital, emphasizes Hannes Zach in an interview. Especially in Europe and countries with high labor costs, digitalization is necessary to remain competitive. Getting started is easier than expected.

Our mission is to lead the way in intelligent manufacturing, and to be one of the world’s pioneering producers of plastic injection moulded products and toolmaking services. Driven by our passion for quality, design, innovation and technology, we are committed to creating a sustainable and shared future that makes a difference in people’s lives, communities and our planet.

We acknowledge the Traditional Custodians of the lands on which we work and live throughout Australia and pay our respects to their Elders past, present and emerging. We recognise their continuing connection to land, waters, and culture.

With our self-cleaning package, you can change materials quickly and easily. As little residual material as possible remains in the barrel.

ENGEL care maintenance packages for preventive maintenance to ensure the availability and safety of your injection molding machine.

iQ flow control automatically regulates pump performance and reduces the volume of water used. This creates constant conditions throughout the injection molding process and increases energy efficiency.

As part of our R&D work in developing new sustainable materials we are forced to push the boundaries of what is believed to be possible. We partnered with SDI Plastics to overcome challenges in processing a highly innovative material, which offers the benefits of being fully biosourced, water resistant and marine biodegradable at its end of life. Our partnership with SDI Plastics is a very positive experience; the level of expertise and commitment to the project is beyond expectations.

The consumption of the injection molding machine often only accounts for 50% of the energy consumption of the entire system. That is why we look at the energy consumption of the entire system.

If the standard delivery time of our machine is too long, we can offer our fast track or stock machine models. If there is additional cost pressure, there is the option of used machines.

Energy optimization of injection molding systems with hardware and software solutions to increase production efficiency.

The set-up assistant is a checklist that guides the machine operator through the individual steps required for the tool change. The set-up assistant program automates program steps whenever possible with manual tasks noted in the control system. This means that even less experienced employees can set up safely and without errors. The set-up assistant increases efficiency for experienced set-up teams.

SDI not only understood what our problems were but also knew how to solve them. Their technical knowledge in plastics and injection moulding has been great. It is a pleasure working with them and I look forward to doing business together for a long time.

We do not only consider the injection molding machine, but the entire system. By optimizing the drive concept, temperature control, intelligent device communication and smart process control, we achieve maximum efficiency for your system. This enables you to reduce the power consumption and CO2 emissions of your injection molding cell by up to 67%, depending on the application. You can save a further 20% energy with our energy efficiency packages.

Injection molding processes such as sandwich injection molding or the two-stage process also increase the proportion of recycled material in the component.

There are some plastic companies and then there’s SDI Plastics. A fantastic partner, we look forward to a long partnership.

When colorant or material is changed during the production of plastic parts, streaks form on the component. Streaks are the result of mixing old and new material. It is therefore not possible to produce good parts for a certain period of time. We have developed the self-cleaning package to keep this period as short as possible and to quickly restore the production of high-quality parts. The modified screw tip enables you to change colorants and materials quickly. Your benefits: increased productivity and material savings.

For all-electric injection molding machines, our e-mac is available in an optional slim version. You save up to 240 mm in machine width depending on the size.
