machine in Asia”, based on dry cycle times. The GX series has also been manufactured in Haiyan, China since 2016 in accordance with KraussMaffei’s world-wide quality standards. The GX 650-3400 with a clamping force of 6,500 kN is demonstrating production of a radiator grille using the FlexFlow hot runner control from HRS Flow for balanced cascade calibration. Cycle time is about 49s. A fully electric PX 160-540 machine is being


used at Chinaplas to produce thin-walled snap-on closures. The PP sealing caps have a diameter of 28 mm and are designed with the 1881 short thread— making this a classic packaging application. “The high output quantities in this area require espe- cially short cycle times. Therefore, the PX 160 is equipped with speed options: faster injection, faster ejection, increased torque and faster nozzle movement,” says Wittgrebe. All exhibits on the Arburg stand at Chinaplas


are automated and connected to the Arburg host computer system (ALS), a central component of its Industry 4.0 offering. Visitors will be able to see how ALS can be used to record and archive the relevant process data online. The company’s exhibits reflect the breadth of its machinery range


for diverse industries. In automotive, Arburg is presenting its lightweight ProFoam physical foaming technology in China for the first time. A hybrid Allrounder 570 H with a size 800 injection unit is producing a component for passenger car engine compartments. Processing involves fibre- reinforced materials (PA66, 30 GF). An exhibit that shows Arburg’s resources in auto-


mation and turnkey systems is a hydraulic Allround- er 920 S machine producing folding crates for the packaging industry. The machine, with a clamping
