Solutions for Thin Wall Injection Moulding
Save Material and Reduce Cycle Time
With over 20 years’ experience in thin wall injection moulding, we have designed two dynamic and high-precision powerhouses with our hybrid and fully electric machines e-speed and e-motion. They are especially suitable for applications with high to extreme flow-path to wall-thickness ratios.
For the requirements of thin wall injection moulding, we have developed a clamping unit with an encapsulated five-point toggle lever. This not only ensures dry cycle times of well under two seconds, but also perfect cleanliness in the mould cavity. All moving elements, as well as the ejector, are sealed and prevent the formation of oil mist or dirt accumulation.
Water-cooled servo-electric drives make the injection moulding machine the optimum symbiosis of efficiency and maximum performance. Reproducible cycles thus ensure consistent part quality for your thin-walled plastic parts.
We have developed dynamic and precise all-electric and hybrid injection units for the production of thin-walled plastic parts. Screws and non-return valves tailored to thin wall injection moulding ensure a smooth production flow - even with recycled material. Especially for geometries with extreme flow-path to wall-thickness ratios.
Shortest cycle times require machinery with high dynamics. Large batch sizes mean continuous operation 24/7. Our service experts are like our machines - available to you round the clock. So that if the worst comes to the worst, production of thin-walled plastic parts can start up again quickly.

As a producer of plastic packaging, we find that ENGEL listens to us. Suggestions we make are incorporated into the development of the machines.
Our experts will be happy to advise you. Together we will find a way.
The performance of electric injection units is constantly increasing. Even challenging applications such as the lid of a thin-walled container can now be produced on fully electric injection moulding machines.
The combination of the special ENGEL coinmelt process with a stack mould enables competitive unit costs with low energy consumption.
The ongoing weight reduction of thin-walled packaging by reducing wall thickness is an ongoing topic in the packaging industry. This trend places increasing demands on injection moulding machines.
Why do we recommend optimising the injection moulding process? By comprehensively and critically evaluating the process and the production conditions, you define an efficient production flow for greater stability and performance.
Greiner Packaging reduces the wall thickness of food containers by a quarter with e-speed injection moulding machines from ENGEL. At the same time, efficiency is increased. Climate neutrality is the goal of the Austrian packaging manufacturer.
