Juniális: ARBURG Hungary’s early summer event

We are delighted with Juniális, which has established itself as an excellent platform for professional dialogue. This year, the market launch of our ALLROUNDER TREND, an entire new product development, imbued this event with a very special significance. With these standard electric machines, we aim to grow strongly in our market while also attracting entirely new customers. Furthermore, , in a practical manner, we showcased ARBURG’s broad portfolio of products and services, as well as our expertise in the fields of automation and digitalisation, demonstrating that our solutions are precisely tailored to market requirements.

The ALLROUNDER TREND meets our customers’ requirements for all-electric, technologically advanced machines for standard applications. Also, these machines are available quickly and at an attractive price. The GESTICA lite control system – also new and remarkably simple and intuitive to use – was particularly well received by younger operators. It adopts the logic and operational philosophy familiar from ARBURG control systems, augmenting these with ‘smart’ functions and active support.

As an example of our automation expertise, we demonstrated the fully automatic production of model dolphins on an electric ALLROUNDER 1000 e TREND. Handling was performe by a MULTILIFT SELECT 8. A production cell centred around a hybrid ALLROUNDER 470 H was also equipped with a linear robot system, producing thin-walled lids. Here, we demonstrated the Cavity Eye sensor technology as well as connection via OPC UA. The third exhibit, a hydraulic ALLROUNDER 420 C, produced 500-ml polycarbonate cups.

Everyone involved gave their all, and this went down really well with the guests. We were supported by Polarform and Slezák (tools), Cavity Eye (sensor system) and Prim-Plast (peripheral devices). In addition, the partners gave short presentations: Polarform addressed the current challenges in mould technology, Prim-Plast introduced new cooling systems, and Cavity Eye demonstrated how sensors can be used to measure mould cavity pressure in real time in order to monitor the filling process and holding pressure and reduce scrap. Furthermore, experts from ARBURG’s German central headquarters in Lossburg made a significant contribution to the event’s high technical standard with their in-depth, practical presentations on the ALLROUNDER TREND and GESTICA lite. This enabled us to clearly demonstrate that, by pooling our expertise, we are able to provide our customers with comprehensive support- This helps them to overcome the challenges they face in their day-to-day injection moulding operations as effectively as possible and to implement the solutions that make the most sense and that are the most cost-effective for them.
