Customized solutions for the Asian market

German manufacturer Arburg announced its exhibition program at Chinaplas 2025, scheduled to take place in Shenzhen from 15 to 18 April, where it will present customised solutions for the Asian market. The company will be presenting two Allrounder E Golden Electric Evo for processing LSR and producing medical bulk items; a turnkey system centred around an Allrounder rotary table machine will produce connector components fully automatically for the mobility sector; special exhibition areas for arburgSolutionworld, including the topics of automation, digitalisation and service, round off the Arburg trade fair presentation.

The two Chinplas exhibits from the Golden Electric Evo series impressively demonstrate the performance of these electric, very precise Allrounder injection moulding machines. Compared to standard hydraulic machines, dry cycle times are reduced by up to two seconds. In addition, the energy requirement can be reduced by up to 50%.
An Allrounder 470 E Golden Electric Evo with a clamping force of 1,000 kN uses a 160-cavity cold runner mould (Fangyi) to produce sealing elements weighing 0.06 grams each from LSR (Wacker) - burr-free and with an injection precision of 0.01 millimetres. These LSR injection-moulded parts are used to protect the individual wires in automotive connectors against the penetration of liquid media. 
An Allrounder 570 E Golden Electric Evo with a clamping force of 2,000 kN will demonstrate the production-efficient manufacture of prefillable syringe barrels from the glass substitute material COP (Cyclic Olefin Polymer). COP is transparent and has similar barrier properties to glass but is virtually unbreakable and more cost-efficient to produce. The exhibit is equipped with an 8-cavity mould (Unistar). A Flexlift 10 linear robotic system gently removes the moulded parts from the mould and places them on a conveyor belt.

Electromobility and the automotive industry in general are becoming increasingly important in China. A sophisticated turnkey system for this industry will be on show at Chinaplas 2025. The centrepiece is an Allrounder 1600 T rotary table machine with a clamping force of 2,000 kN, which sequentially overmoulds metal inserts into high-voltage modules for automotive connectors. A small six-axis robot feeds the inserts into the system via a transfer platform and also stacks the finished moulded parts. A second, large six-axis robot places the metal inserts in one half injection mould (Concraft). After overmoulding with glass fibre-reinforced PBT, it transfers the pre-moulded parts to the second half of the mould, where the finished module is produced by overmoulding again.

Arburg has decades of expertise in injection moulding, automation and digitalisation and offers a wide range of services that enable customers to manufacture their products efficiently, quickly and to a high standard of quality. The arburgSolutionworld exhibition area brings together consulting expertise on all these topics. The Arburg experts will also answer individual questions and present, for example, the Arburg host computer system ALS, the arburgXworld customer portal and the range of spare parts and calibration services. The Flexlift will also be in focus. This modular linear robotic system can be customised precisely to the respective requirements - e.g. with application-specific drives, valve sets and variable control cabinet positioning.
