Expert Corner at Fakuma 2026
Be connected with our experts
At our Expert Corners, you will experience in-depth practical knowledge, individual advice and deep insights into current developments in plastic injection moulding. Our experts will advise you on key topics – from sustainable solutions and digitalisation to pioneering manufacturing concepts.
Automation
In a compact automation cell, we show how our smallest viper 6 next generation creates a larger working space. Reworked axis profiles and flexibly selectable strokes make it compact, flexible and future-proof. Take a look at the new viper generation yourself.
Technologies
At the Expert Corner Technologies, visitors experience state-of-the-art injection moulding technologies up close – not through machines, but through exhibited components, such as a drone rotor blade made from thermoplastic composites, manufactured using tape-sandwich injection moulding. Visitors can touch the components and engage directly in conversation with our experts on-site. The focus is on the people and the know-how behind the technologies.
clearmelt
At the Expert Corner clearmelt, discover In-Mould Coating (IMC): injection molding and PUR coating combined in a single process. The result is scratch-resistant, UV-resistant, and self-healing surfaces, all without the need for conventional painting.
Control unit
More safety, efficiency, and ease of use – with smart support directly at the machine. Our solutions secure valuable know-how, simplify onboarding, and bring structure to your processes.
