Built for speed and precision, Sumitomo (SHI) Demag has unveiledits newest IntElect – the S series all-electric machine. With its upgraded motor design and a package of added features, the machine fills an important gap for the thin-wall packaging segment, described by the company’s UK MD Nigel Flowers as the twilight zone.
Until now, packaging moulders, especially those operating in the thin wall arena, have opted for speed – three-to five second cycle times – over energy efficiency and process stability. “Typically there’s almost no latency with a fast cycling machine and so the opportunities to reduce energy has until now been more difficultto achieve, especially on hybrid machines used predominantly in mass-manufacturing of packaging,”comments Nigel. However, with the IntElect S, there’s no need to compromise on any aspect.
With many packaging applications involving high quantities and low part weight, the improved dynamics and energy savings will prove to be indispensible to a moulders’ productivity and competitiveness.
