Basis: adapted design
The reliability of injection moulding
machines over their entire service life
depends not least on their design. The
special Packaging (P) ALLROUNDER
versions ensure:
rpermanent process reliability, thanks to
their stable machine bases
r low mould wear, thanks to precisely
guided clamping units with symmetric
force application
rminimal mould breathing, thanks to
FEM-optimised mounting platens
In addition there are generously dimen-
sioned clamping ranges with plenty of free
space for complex moulds.
'HEKGPVUGTXQGNGEVTKEVQIINGU[UVGO
The servo-electric toggle-type clamping
units of the hybrid HIDRIVE-P and electric

energy in comparison with the hydraulic
clamping units, also making them more

positioning of the servo electric clamping
unit also leads to more reliable removal.
Important: high plasticising capacity
Correspondingly high plasticising capacity is
often crucial in the production of packag-
ing. So-called barrier screws, in which the
compression zone has been replaced with a
barrier zone, ensure homogeneous melt
preparation. The cylinder modules are
highly wear-resistant and thus ensure a long
service life. The servo-electric direct drive
permits dosage across cycles, precise

Highly dynamic: servo valves arranged near the
point of application.
Application-oriented: variety of technical details
Packaging
A collection of technical components
only becomes a fully functional produc-
tion system when you are supported by
a reliable partner throughout the entire
value-added chain. A partner like us: as
system provider, we always maintain
the overview. We combine the injection
moulding machine, mould and automa-
tion, as well as competent service.
Whether in-mould-labelling or multi-
component technology, machine con-
guration or turnkey projects: we offer
you a broad range of technical details
for specic applications that will sat-
isfy every demand. In this way, we can
always provide you with a suitable pro-
duction solution.
Fast, dynamic injection
Highly dynamic lling during injection
moulding is decisive for thin-walled items.
This is the only way to achieve the shortest
injection times on a reproducible basis. As
well as high acceleration, active braking is
also important. This is assured by the unsur-
passed, position-regulated screw from
ARBURG. This is achieved by means of hy-
draulic servo valves and servo-electrically
powered planetary roller screw drives for
correspondingly fast movements.
Synchronous, powerful ejection
Fast cycles are also inuenced to a signi-
cant extent by a fast, reliable ejector.
ARBURG also has practical solutions on
offer for this important detail. The
combination of servo-electric toggle-
type clamping unit and servo-electric
ejector is extremely powerful and
results in short opening and clos-
ing times thanks to the precise,
reproducible dropping of
moulded parts. The hydraulic
booster function means that
even shrunk-on closures can be
demoulded with ease. Force is
applied evenly in all mould cavi-
ties through the use of ejector
platens with several eccentric
ejector pins.
High precision: servo-electric ejectors with
booster function.
Fast actuation: valve clusters with large cross
sections for pneumatic functions.

Tailored expansions
Large valve clusters help with the
fast actuation of pneumatic func-
tions in the mould. Mould cool-
ing can be optimised through
customer-specic cooling wa-
ter distributors with feed
lines measuring up to two
inches. A dry air device
above the clamping unit
prevents the formation
of condensation.
System solutions for packaging
As system service provider, ARBURG also
handles the project planning of complete
systems, commissioning at the customers
premises, CE labelling, as well as training
and support. This is made possible through
close cooperation with leading manufactur-
ers of moulds, automation systems and
peripheral devices.
Highly customised: media connections in the
vicinity of the mould.
Effective cooling: connection lines with large
cross-sections.

Freely programmable: SELOGICA control system
1Flexible sequence management
The SELOGICA can be congured ideally to
suit the specic production application se-
quence, with no need for special programs.
Synchronisation of movements is individu-
ally adjustable, depending on the paths or
forces. Equally unique: all signals can be
monitored for optimum process and quality
control, as well as process reliability. Theproduction sequence is controllable, de-
pending on machine, mould and peripheral
signals. Follow-up functions can be individ-
ually selected. Example: production will only
start if compressed air is available. Only the
SELOGICA offers operators so much free-
dom when conguring ALLROUNDERs.
Firmly under control: synchronous entry of the
high-speed removal systems.
Maintaining control over sophisticated
machine, mould and robotic technol-
ogy is the domain of SELOGICA. With
this setting and monitoring system,
you can quickly set up both simple and
complex injection moulding processes,
operate them intuitively and perform
reliable optimisation. In other words:
central management. All technical fea-
tures of the SELOGICA control system,
such as the graphic sequence editor, are
also ideally suited for the production
of packaging items and aimed at mak-
ing operation faster, more reliable and
more convenient. Here too, ARBURG
provides you with decisive application
advantages: because we have alreadyintegrated all the necessary functions
for high-quality and cost-effective part
production in the SELOGICA system.

Application examples
Injection moulded plastic packaging
is on the advance, offering universal
design options, for example. In order to
ensure that optimum performance is
achieved in your business on a daily
basis using multi-cavity moulds, speed,
a high degree of reliability and qual-
ity are essential. These are precisely
the features that characterise our
ALLROUNDER technology. As system
service provider, our concern is with
complete solutions from a single source
with machine technology that is pre-
cisely tailored to the specic individual
application. Professional advice, from
the planning stage and installation
on site through to service, round offour offer. This ensures that you are al-
ways on the safe side when it comes
to packaging.
1Complex two-component
bottle caps
ARBURG cooperates with established experts
to develop perfectly harmonised complete
solutions. The best example of this is the
combination of innovative mould technol-
ogy with a two-component ALLROUNDER
to produce water bottle caps. The machine
technology can be adapted individually to
the mould, e.g. through corresponding fex-
ible arrangement options for injection units.
ARBURG handles the complete integration
of the mould functions, such as servo-elec-
tric turning, in the machine.
2In-mould closing of ip-top cap
The integration of functions is always an
important issue in the packaging sector
with its high requirements in terms of cost
efciency. In the case of ip-top caps for
shampoo bottles, the open cap can actually
be closed inside the mould, for example.
The exible SELOGICA machine control sys-
tem offers signicant advantages here.
Thanks to the detailed, congurable se-
quence management feature, the produc-
tion sequence can always be ideally adapted
to the relevant application. The intuitive hu-
man/machine dialogue lends transparency
to complex sequences and makes the pro-
duction process easy to control.
Efcient: fully integrated mould technology impresses with its reliable processes and
short cycle times.
High-quality: ip-top caps are closed directly
in the mould.

372 screw caps in 3 seconds
Multi-cavity moulds that produce large unit
volumes in a matter of seconds are the
dominant technology when it comes to the
production of screw caps. In addition to a
correspondingly large plasticizing capacity
implemented with barrier screws and high-
performance drives for the shortest possible
dosage times, there is a particular require-
ment for powerful servo-electric ejection
that can be synchronised with the mould
movements. All other components of the
system, such as cooling sections and visual
part inspections are also coordinated in ac-
cordance with the application. This is the
only way in which production can runquickly, reliably and to a high quality.
4Reliable label insertion
Those wanting to produce containers in
large unit volumes in a single process step
with the appropriate labels using the in-
mould labelling process (IML), can rely on
us to provide a complete turnkey solution.
As systems supplier, ARBURG designs and
congures such systems individually, in line
with requirements. Speed, functional relia-
bility and cost efciency are important key-
words here. This is provided mainly by the
servo-electric toggle-type clamping unit
with its extremely short dry cycle times,
energy recovery during braking and high
positioning accuracy.
5Long cartridges
Owing to the long ow channels, many
packaging applications such as cartridges
for silicone compounds require the shortest
injection moulding times and thus dynamic
movements and high speeds. Here, the po-
sition-regulated screws of the ALLROUNDER
can fully demonstrate their great advan-
tages in combination with hydraulic accu-
mulator technology and servo valves posi-
tioned close to the consumers, as well as
fully electric injection units.
Dynamic: achieve long ow paths with short
injection times.
Productive: production of mass-produced
items in a matter of seconds.
Time-saving: simultaneous insertion of
labels and removal of containers.
