On its way south, the truck stopped off in Barcelona on 5 May and in Antzuola on 6 May. For both roadshow events in Spain the truck was parked in front of technology institutes that act as service and consulting partners for injection moulding businesses. A total of about 60 customers and interested parties accepted the invitation to attend the presentations on energy efficiency and the benefits of the electric ALLROUNDER A series held on the premises of the institutes themselves. The theory outlined in the presentations was subsequently explained in greater practical detail on the machine itself in an atmosphere that was characterised by intensive and constructive discussions with customers. Once again, guests were obviously very impressed with the truck, seeing it as an unconventional, but extremely effective idea.
 
Spanish subsidiary manager Martin Cayre and his sales team looked after the customers. A service engineer was also available to carry out energy consumption measurements on the machine, underpinning the theoretical explanations with hard facts. The results showed that the energy consumed by the electric machine in producing the injection-moulded buggy was over 60 percent lower than for a comparable hydraulic machine.
 
On board the truck is an electric ALLROUNDER 320 A with a clamping force of 500 kN and a size 170 injection unit as a demonstration object. The exhibition is centred around the theme of “Energy Efficiency Allround”. A presentation on this subject explains the overall energy efficiency strategy, which ranges from environmentally-friendly building technology at the company’s headquarters in Lossburg and the resource-efficient production of ARBURG machinery, to advising customers on energy issues.
