Engel to Showcase New Production Solutions at Composites Europe 2016

Engel Austria is set to exhibit new production concepts for the manufacture of composite parts at Composites Europe 2016.

The event will take place from 29 November to 1 December in Düsseldorf, Germany.

The machine manufacturer will exhibit pre-series production solutions for the automobile, teletronics and technical component sectors at the event.

Engel has developed a new reactive unit, which can be aggregated with different types of firm’s injection moulding  machines.

The company, along with Schöfer, developed a pre-series manufacturing cell to produce thermoplastic fibre-reinforced components by using the in-situ polymerisation technology.

Shovels are produced on the Engel -duo 1560/700, which can be used in a wide range of applications, including automotive industry.

With the support of v-duo series, Engel has developed a compact and energy-efficient machine specifically for fibre composite applications and multi-component processes.

Through collaboration with Bond-Laminates and Leonhard Kurz, Engel has also developed effective production cell for the manufacture of housings, which can be used in the production of notebooks, tablets, smartphones and other hand-held devices.

The company has designed advanced automated production cell for the material combination of a thermoplastic and continuous fibre reinforced semi-finished part and the IMD film developed and patented by Bond-Laminates Bond-Laminates and Leonhard Kurz.

Engel’s Center for Lightweight Composite Technologies is engaged in the development of new methods in the production of fibre-reinforced plastic components.

Its core areas of activity include the processing of thermoplastic semi-finished parts such as thermoplastic fabrics and tapes, as well as thermoset compression moulding materials such as SMC along with reactive technologies using thermoset and thermoplastic systems.
