Eight IntElect machines at Fakuma
Sumitomo (SHI) Demag, Hall B1- Booth 1105
Sumitomo (SHI) Demag exhibits will focus on demonstrating the tools and solutions that will conserve resources and increase performance in an economical, space and timesaving way. Featuring eight smaller-footprint IntElect machines, four on the main booth (B1-1105), and four more supporting partner showcases, demonstrating the switch to all-electric injection moulding to reduce environmental impact. Having developed an IntElect for every market segment, including automotive, electronics, packaging, medical and consumer, the company will present how they are now assisting processors to save even more energy.
Energy efficient packaging machines
Processing packaging materials in the most efficient way directly addresses one of the major operating expenses for mass-packaging moulders – energy consumption. Business Development Director Packaging, Arnaud Nomblot and his team will demonstrate advantages of switching to all-electric. Citing examples of up to 70% reduction in energy costs, this year’s packaging exhibit features an IntElect 2 S 220/660-1400, efficiently manufacturing four decorated food containers in PP, with an integrated IML side entry robot. The exhibit features a four-cavity mould tool from Société Nouvelle Caulonque. Feeding labels with precision into the packaging machine is an automated IML system supplied by Pagès Group, with iPB Printing B.V. supplying the high-quality labels and Total Energies providing the material.
Providing greater processing transparency to help run machines at their most efficient, Sumitomo (SHI) Demag will unveil its advances in myAssist and how further optimisations offer processors even deeper data insights. These newest upgrades, summarised by the company as the ultimate ‘digital process companion’, present easy to read dashboards, consumption data and KPIs, all defined by the end user. The ability to connect and oversee digital data across multiple machines in a single production facility is also available.
