The Big duo Injection Moulding 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-step process combining decoration and scratch-resistant surface protection in one production step by means of IMD and PUR coating.

  • Use of Recycled Materials in the Production of Transport Boxes

    Transport boxes with recycled material in the core are produced on a big duo injection moulding machine using the ENGEL skinmelt plasticising process.

  • Production of Interior Trim for Car Doors

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

  • Production of automotive interior covers

    Equipped with a customised range of functions, a PP compound with 30 % post-consumer recyclate is processed using standard components.

Multi-talented for a Wide Range of Applications

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

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

Compact size & flexible machine layout

The duo is a large and variable injection moulding machine with a standardised modular principle and compact external dimensions. This saves valuable floor space. With numerous option packages, the concept can be customised 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 mould wear. Mould breathing is always kept within the ideal range and scrap is reduced.

Less downtime due to modular injection unit

Special tools are no longer required for quick and easy melt cylinder changes. Together with the modular nozzle concept of the large injection moulding machine, downtimes are reduced. Our well-thought-out solution saves valuable time.

Our duo machine series

Flexible machine concepts for different requirements

We have positioned our duo series to offer breadth and flexibility. So you will always find the right two-platen injection moulding machine depending on the for your application.

  • duo fast track: Our duo fast track with short delivery time is the choice when you need a quickly available injection moulding machine.

  • duo combi: The duo combi is the high-performance, multi-component, large-scale machine with a wide variety of different injection unit combinations.

  • e-duo: With its precise, electric injection unit, the e-duo ensures consistently optimal results, shot after shot.

  • duo speed: The fast duo speed is tailor-made for large-volume containers and similar products with a high flow path/wall thickness ratio.

  • duo tech: Our duo tech is the high-performance machine for a wide range of demanding applications.

NEW: duo tech series

We have upgraded our proven duo injection moulding machine to the duo tech: Larger mould space with the same footprint, higher performance of the injection unit and even shorter dry cycle times enable you to further increase your output.
