The Large duo Injection Molding Machine in Use
  • Production of Waste Collection Systems

    With a clamping force of 55,000 kN, a shot weight of 27,500 g and, a cycle time of 140 sec, the duo 5500 produces 1100-L waste containers.

  • Production of Automotive Front Panel Demonstration Board

    Single-stage process combining decoration and scratch-resistant surface protection in one production step through IMD and PUR coating.

  • Use of Recyclates in the Production of Transport Boxes

    Transport boxes with recyclate in the core are produced on a large duo injection molding machine using the ENGEL skinmelt plasticizing process.

  • Production of interior trim for car doors

    The first production cell to form three organic sheets of different thicknesses and design a high-quality visible surface in the same process step.

  • Production of automotive interior trim

    Equipped with a demand-oriented range of functions, a PP compound with 30% post-consumer recyclate is processed on a standard machine.

The Advantages of the duo Large Injection Molding Machine
Energy-saving production of large components

The ENGEL ecodrive servo-hydraulics ensure high economic efficiency in the production of large-volume or large- area parts. It is included in the scope of the entire duo series. Thanks to the demand-based pump output, the motors are at rest and do not consume energy when the machine is at a standstill during cooling, for example.

Compact size & flexible machine layout

The duo is a large and flexible injection molding machine with a standardized modular principle and compact external dimensions. This saves valuable floor space. With numerous option packages, the design can be customized from basic requirements to turnkey solutions.

Increase productivity with digital solutions

Our digital solution, iQ clamp control, automatically determines the optimum clamping force. This reduces mold wear. Mold breathing is always kept in the ideal range and scrap is reduced.

Less downtime due to modular injection unit
