OverviewThe duo speed is a compact, high-performance two-platen large injection molding machine designed for packaging and logistics. Fully servo‑hydraulic with an electric screw drive, it delivers extremely short dry cycle times and high process precision. Available clamping forces range from approx. 4,000 to 11,500 kN. Typical dry cycle times are approx. 1.9–2.9 s depending on part and process.
Applications- Packaging production: thin‑wall containers, closures, food packaging, pails (example: five‑gallon pail)
- Logistics and large cavity parts requiring high output and short cycles
- Multi-material and recycled-core overmolding processes (e.g. recycled core encapsulated by virgin material)
Features & Benefits- Two‑platen design: compact footprint and accessible mold area with exposed tie‑bars
- Servo‑hydraulic drive with ecodrive components to optimize energy consumption
- Electric screw drive and injection accumulators for rapid, demand‑based injection
- Optimized screw (barrier screw) and ring check valve as standard for PP/HDPE
- Improved clamping unit: reinforced movable platen, linear guides (options up to 900 t), predictive locking with additional accumulators to reduce switching times
- Integrated control concept CC300: modern HMI, flexible configuration and robot integration
- High process stability and part quality: precise clamping force distribution and platen parallelism control; digital aids (e.g. inject AI) available
- Automation‑ready: compatible with robots (e.g. ENGEL viper series) and integrated conveyor solutions
