Vertical injection molding machine v-duo

servo-hydraulic

Product overview
The vertical injection molding machine v-duo is engineered for large technical parts and for combining compression molding and overmolding in a single process step. The machine integrates a hydraulic injection unit directly into the vertical press, allowing parts to be molded and functionalized in one cycle. The vertical clamping concept ensures high platen parallelism for repeatable part geometry and consistent quality. The compact layout optimizes floor space and simplifies automation integration.

Key features

• Integrated injection unit (hydraulic injection unit built into the vertical press) enabling in-cycle functionalization
• Compression molding and overmolding performed in one operation
• Large mold space thanks to wide tie-bar spacing; supports large molds and sliding tables for fast setup and automation
• Precise vertical clamping unit with defined compression function and high platen parallelism
• Live tie-bar elongation measurement with automatic independent control of four pressure pads
• Servo-hydraulic drive concept
• Central control unit with plug & play connectivity for automation and third-party peripherals
• Turnkey automation and production cell solutions for consistent datasets and simplified operation
• Application and process support from ENGEL for composite and lightweight component production

Applications

• Compression molding and overmolding of large or complex components
• Production of composite and lightweight plastic components (e.g. glass-fiber reinforced parts)
• Integrated functionalization and encapsulation in a single production cycle
• Turnkey production cells with automation for high-throughput manufacturing
