Husky Injection Molding Systems launched its new H-PET AE (all-electric) injection molding system, a small, efficient and low maintenance solution for PET preform manufacturing. Demonstrated at the K2010, H-PET AE offers lower part costs and greater energy efficiency than competitive systems in this range.
KraussMaffei AG is very satisfied with the results for the company of the K2010 trade show in Düsseldorf.
At the upcoming K 2010 show, Husky Injection Molding Systems will introduce all-electric injection moulding machines aimed at PET preforms and medical moulding – the first ones from a company that had long eschewed all-electrics, instead favouring hydraulic and hybrid technology.
The economic crisis visibly impacted 2009 and also hit Engel hard in the fiscal year 2010. However, targeted measures helped to absorb most of the impact.

Netstal, the Swiss manufacturer of injection moulding machines, takes advantage of the world's biggest trade fair of the plastics industry to present many new and further developments under the motto of „one step ahead“.
Micro-injection moulding places high demands on development and components /Arburg launches new micro-injection module onto the market
The value of the European plastics injection moulding industry slumped to €42.6bn in 2009, losing 23% of its value from €55bn in 2008, according to a report from AMI.
Automation of the future: Six-axis robotic system with Selogica user interface / 2.3-second cycle time proves high-speed capabilities of Allrounder Hidrive. All of this Arburg will exhibit at the Plastpol 2010 in Kielce (Poland).
Exjection technology supports the production of long sections and rails with integrated fitting, closure, reinforcing and decor elements via a single injection point in a single production cycle. We chose a fully electrical Engel e-motion injection moulding machine for this process as it guarantees the required level of process integration. IB Steiner has now been awarded the 2009 State Prize for consulting/engineering consulting for the development of the Exjection process.
At the 13th Interplastica, which will take place from 26 to 29 January 2010 in Moscow, Arburg will be represented with a hydraulic Allrounder 420 C Golden Edition.
Beck Automation, Oberengstringen (CH), held back with a true speciality for Fakuma 2009: For the first time Beck labels a transparent polystyrene (PS) thin wall cup. 3,3 seconds cycle time per shot for 4 cups is the measuring rod set by the IML automations experts from Switzerland.
The use of energy-saving machines and energy saving systems is still in the injection moulder's focus. And this makes it all the more important for the machine manufacturer to face these challenges and offer innovative and sustainable energy-efficient solutions for injection moulders. With a motto of "Driving you eco" Engel is exhibiting at Fakuma 2009 in Friedrichshafen from 13th to 17th October.
