Are material variations and complex machine settings slowing down your production? 📉   See how SLG Kunststoff GmbH achieved a 10% energy saving and completely eliminated flash in their large-volume packaging production! By testing the new iQ weight control plus on their duo 1700 machine, they switched to pressure-controlled injection. Instead of tweaking over 40 complex parameters, their operators now only need to set two: injection pressure and switch-over time. The software’s intelligent algorithm handles the rest, automatically compensating for material viscosity changes (even with recycled plastics) shot by shot. 🧠⚙️   Key results from the production floor: ✅ ~10% Energy savings with identical cycle Times  ✅ Injection pressure reduced by ~300 bar (less mechanical stress!)  ✅ Zero flash and perfectly constant part weight  ✅ Significantly less setup effort, reducing the dependency on deep expert knowledge.   👉 Read the full success story on our blog and discover how intelligent assistance systems can make your injection moulding process stable, sustainable, and profitable: https://lnkd.in/dueNVKi6   #ENGEL #InjectionMoulding #PlasticsIndustry #iQweightcontrolplus #SmartManufacturing #EnergyEfficiency #Recycling
