ENGEL expands its technical center in St. Valentin, Austria, with duo 5500 combi M, one of the company’s largest injection molding machines and by far the largest technical center machine in the world.

Largest machine for more injection molding opportunities

 

duo 5500 combi M is in 32 meters long, 13 meters wide, 6.8 meters high, and weighs 545 tons. Its extra-large mold space accommodates molds weighing up to 150 tons, with possible shot weights up to 42 kg.

 

The machine offers impressive sheer size, as is the wide range of material combinations and technologies it supports, including:

 

  • clearmelt – Coating visible parts with PUR

  • foammelt – Foam injection molding for lightweight construction and warpage reduction

  • organomelt – Processes with long glass fiber or tape reinforcement

  • coinmelt – Compression injection molding

  • optimelt – High-quality optical parts made from transparent plastics

  • combimelt – Multi-color injection molding

  • foilmelt – Back-injection of decorative/functional films

 

This state-of-the-art machine covers all application areas for the automotive sector and technical injection molding.

 

With cutting-edge technology and digital assistance systems

 

duo 5500 combi M features two movable (combined and individually operable) horizontal injection units and a combi M injection unit. It is also equipped with two six-axis ENGEL easix articulated robots for flexible and efficient automation.

For PU applications, two Cannon systems are available, one for small-volume applications and one for high-volume applications. Additionally, a corresponding dosing unit allows for coloring the polyurethanes to create exciting designs.

 

All digital assistance systems from ENGEL are integrated into the machine control, enabling energy-efficient, sustainable, and efficient production while optimizing processes.

 

Supporting flexible innovations

 

duo 5500 combi M allows for the testing and development of existing and new customer projects under real conditions and on neutral ground. This includes tool and material tests as well as the development of new manufacturing technologies.

 

Feasibility and implementation of large, complex plastic parts and toolmakers can now test at an early project stage. This significantly shortens the go-to-market time and avoids costly subsequent errors by identifying and eliminating sources of error early on.

 

The machine is now available for customer trials. Initial customer trials are already scheduled to begin shortly.
