51 TRADE SHOW PREVIEW PET planet Insider Vol. 20 No. 10/19 www.petpla.net Hall 14 And&Or Booth B03 Compact machines for higher productivity per unit area At K 2019 the Engel e-mac 280 is taking to the packaging floor, allowing for a more granular performance gradation for the packaging industry in all-electric use cases. The Engel e-mac machines are exclusively equipped with particularly powerful servo- motors, including the ejector and nozzle movement. This is intended to ensure maximum precision and process stability, and an optimum overall effi- ciency level. The series covers a wide spectrum of applications. Featuring clamping forces of 500, 750, 1,000, 1,800 and 2,800 kN, the e-mac machines have become very well established in the teletronics and technical moulding industries. Two series for even shorter cycle times In the high-speed, all-electric high-performance range, with cycle times of less than 6s, Engel’s e-motion series and e-cap machines, which are tailored to caps and closures applications, meet a wide range of market requirements with high precision and cost-effectiveness. Together, the two series cover a clamping force range from 300-6,500kN and achieve cycle times of less than 2s. Both the e-motion and e-cap machines are equipped with encapsulated toggle levers and a clean linear platen guide; this makes them ideal for strictly regulated production areas and cleanrooms in the foods and medical technology industries. www.engelglobal.com AGV - Automatic Guided Vehicle for the plastic industry TheAnd&Or AGV is specially designed for flexible blow moulding line automa- tion, which requires intensive work and complex production flows. It can easily be integrated in existing production plants, with no need for machine movements or civil works. It allows the transport of pallets, boxes, bottle layers, etc. The navigation system and the mechanical solution are designed as per specific project needs. The navigation is incor- porated and is safe and silent as well as having an energy regeneration system. The AGV minimises plant movements and reduces cost of indoor transporta- tion. Several vehicles working together can recognise each other. Set-up time is very short and the system can be up and running from day o ne. www.andyor.com Hall 15 Engel Booth B42-C58
