Design with maximum heating plate
dimensions
With its vertical clamping unit for injection moulding of rubber moulded parts and overmoulding insert parts, the
ENGEL elast compact offers:
● maximum ergonomic benefits due to a low operating height of just 775 mm above the shop floor
● fully automatic mould height adjustment
● rigid design reduces burrs in production
Innovative system for a low operating height
The clamping mechanism solution is basically the
same as that of the standard system, however, the
platen movement mechanism was decoupled
from the pressure mechanism in the construction design.

can be achieved (for the ENGEL elast 400 V compact
model). The benefits: no operating platforms are required, and there is no need to install the machine in
a pit. After take-off, the cycle starts in the opposite
order.
Initial position: clamping mechanism closed. The lower (moving) mould platen is pushed against the fixed
mould platen by the actuating cylinders. A pressure
pad located in the moving platen builds up the clamping force. The pressure pad in the moving platen offers best-in-class transfer for minimal burrs in
production.
mics.
At the end of the cycle, the pressure pad is relieved and the pressure ram moved laterally out of
the clamping unit. The moving mould platen is held in
position by the actuating cylinders.
Removing the need for operating platforms
For take-off, the moving mould platen is moved by the
actuating cylinders to the bottom, i.e., take-off position. Thus an ergonomically advantageous operating height of 775 mm above the shop floor

Maximum flexibility with respect to mould dimensions:
mould fixing platens can be fully utilised. This allows for relatively
large and technically complex moulds with moderate clamping
force.
Easier automation thanks to free access to the mould area
for robots and automation equipment:
shorter distances, faster cycle times, smaller footprints
Higher machine utilisation levels and greater productivity
thanks to fast mould changes:
shorter set-up times - even for large and bulky moulds
Energy savings: the high energy efficiency of the machine is
further enhanced by intelligent ENGEL ecodrive servo hydraulics.

Focus on productivity
Automation has a decisive economic significance in
the rubber processing industry. ENGEL is your ideal
partner for this. For brush and press out systems,
as well as complex automation tasks. Because
ENGEL not only has experts in the ENGEL distribution companies, but also at our own competence
centres, where we successfully bundle our automation know-how to your benefit.

This means that you can use multiple-axis robots – for take-off and feeding – and multiple brush units at the same time. Keeping a clear focus on higher productivity.
ENGEL elast 400 V compact: Automatic centre plate
The horizontal ENGEL elast victory rubber injection moulding machines provide a special automation benefit: Because the clamping unit works without interfering tie-bars,
it offers robots and handling equipment unhindered access – from three sides.

First in. First out.
Homogeneous preparation and processing that is easy on materials thanks to FIFO injection unit
The FIFO unit
The plasticising unit
First In. First Out: the FIFO injection units in the ENGEL elast model
range were specially designed for elastomer processing. The
first material to plasticise is also injected first into the mould. This keeps
the thermal state of the entire shot volume constant. Injection occurs
directly without detours or redirection. Thanks to the extremely short
injection nozzle almost all of the preselected injection pressure is available for mould filling.
Unproblematic processing even of mixtures that are difficult to
take in. Because strip feeding is supported by a tangential feed yoke
in the plasticising barrel. Because the entire screw length is available
throughout the entire plasticising process, a uniform temperature profile is achieved for the entire shot volume.
For ergonomic strip feeding the FIFO units on vertical
ENGEL elast machines can optionally be displaced by 90 degrees.
The injection unit.
Temperature control options
In combination with the short injection nozzle, the melt temperature can
be selected so that vulcanisation is initiated immediately after filling the
mould. This ensures shortest-possible heating times and offers decisive benefits in terms of mould filling manageability. High melt
temperatures can be achieved and kept constant.
The ENGEL FIFO injection unit is pre-tooled for temperature monitoring/cooling via two external temperature control devices. The
temperature of the injection nozzle is monitored by default (on-screen
display). Optionally, the temperatures of the feed block, the plasticising
barrel, and the injection chamber can be integrated into the control unit
and monitored.

ENGEL roto feeder
One revolution ahead!
Stable process. Uninterrupted.
The new ENGEL roto feeder rotary feeding unit offers maximum process stability in
filling material into the plasticising unit. An uninterrupted flow of material is fed in,
free of air pockets and at a constant pressure. Maximum user-friendliness included.

Functional principle
The billets of material are fed into a rotating hopper with counter-rotating screw. The screw continually feeds the
plasticising barrel via the opening in the hopper. The standard program includes an oscillating movement for selfcleaning. The gap between the screw and the hopper is configurable.
The control unit | everything under control
with the ENGEL CC 200
A state-of-the-art control unit needs to be able to deal with increasingly complex processes. While providing for quick and simple programming. The control unit on the
ENGEL machines, the ENGEL CC 200, is perfectly geared for this task. With its clearcut, ergonomic controls it allows for a more efficient and safer design of the human/
machine interface.
Machine and robot sequence at a
glance
The freely configurable machine sequence supports
simple, individual configuration of sequences throughout the injection moulding cycle. Even complex cycle
sequences including the robot can be easily and reliably created, visualised and modified using graphical
tools. Above all for vertical machines this means
substantial facilitation of the machine setup.
Independent workflow sequences can be created for
the injection station as well as for the insert and takeoff stations.
The machine sequence can be set up in advance
on the PC with the supplied "virtual machine".
Faster mould changing, less risk of mould damage and
ideal training opportunities for operators are the decisive benefits.
Quality monitoring
A variety of modules for monitoring the moulded
part quality are available as a standard or option.
Both the direct graphic monitoring of all key parameters of the injection moulding process and the recording and statistical evaluation of the same are displayed in a simple and clear manner.
This data can be collected and evaluated at a
central point via an interface to external production
planning and monitoring systems.
Energy efficiency with ENGEL ecograph
The standard ENGEL victory control unit incorporates
ENGEL ecograph, an energy analysis tool. This tool
enables the operator to check the machine's energy
consumption and to optimise the energy efficiency
of the injection moulding sequence.

Energy saving champion ENGEL ecodrive:
●
●
●
●
●
huge energy savings
– especially in the case of long heating periods
hydraulics "on board" – thus ideal for powering peripheral units (e.g. a shuttle kit)
saves cooling water
far less heat loss to the production shop
very quiet
Due to long heating times, the energy saving potential is particularly high in elastomer processing – compared with thermoplastic
applications. Thanks to the ecodrive servohydraulics and
further intelligent energy features, ENGEL elast machines
perfectly leverage this potential.
Focus on energy
With servohydraulics ENGEL ecodrive & co.
18_ENGEL elast
Because ecodrive only activates the drive while the machine is
moving, no energy is consumed while the machine is stationary, for example during the heating phase, by avoiding
drive unit idling. When the servohydraulic machine does move,
it does so with extreme efficiency – thanks in part to a patented
pressure regulation system.
ENGEL hydraulic injection moulding machines with ecodrive thus
achieve energy consumption figures that can compete with those
of fully electric machines. Additionally, the machines need little
to no cooling water. As the machines still use hydraulics, they
offer optimum conditions for powering and actuating peripheral
units (for example, a shuttle kit).
