Event highlights: ENGEL’s Digital Days for future of plastics technology

At the event, AI Evangelist Malcolm Werchota, Head of Generative AI at Triple Eight Solutions and Co-Founder/COO at CoatingAI, Switzerland, gave a talk on "AI in Industry - Has the Future Already Begun?".

At the end of his lecture, he introduced the prototype of a world-first innovation – ENGEL GPT, which is integrated directly into the customer portal. ENGEL GPT enables access to all machine and process data available directly on the shop floor.

The prototype of the system attracted a crowd at the technology center in the large machine plant in St. Valentin. Here, the opportunities and potential that AI offers for the future of injection molding became clear.

At additional stations, ENGEL presented the practical implementation in digital products and assistance systems.

An advancement of the CC300 machine controller, the CC300 plus, was also a crowd-puller at the technology center in St. Valentin.

It offers enhanced ergonomics, assistance, and personalization. The extended control concept, which is already successfully in use by customers, was presented here.

On the first and last day of the event series, the iQ user communities took place, which specifically targeted the practical needs of process technicians and machine operators.

Here, users were able to test and discuss ENGEL's iQ products at the technology center in Schwertberg.
