Among their 26 moulding machines, they operate eight 320C ARBURGs that are essentially identical machines. But when managing director Sam Green joined the company in 2012, he noticed the technicians had regular issues when transferring tools and their settings sheet between these identical machines.

Ainsi les trois types 320 A, 420 A et 520 A couvrent une plage de forces de fermeture de 500 kN à 2000 kN. [...] On doit pouvoir compter sur ARBURG. Et c‘est le cas. ARBURG va-t-elle rester aux mains de la famille ? JH : Clairement ! [...] Que ce soit à Stuttgart ou Kuala Lumpur. C‘est uni- quement lorsque les clients sont parfaitement satisfaits que la croissance de l‘entreprise est assurée.
The Allrounder 420 C 1300 thus combines all the out- standing advantages of the large and small C machines. [...] All the im- Compact design and extreme efficiency are the watch- words of the latest model in the C-class range: The Allrounder 420 C 1300. The clamping system and injec- tion unit of the new model offer all the same qualities as the 470 model series, with the difference that the smaller of the two available injection units is also used on the 420 C with a clamping force of 1000 kN. This clearly highlights the position held by the new ma- chine within the C series. The 420 C 1300 rounds off the upper end of the Allrounder spectrum with a clamping dimension of 420 x 420 mm, so creating an ideal link to the 470 versions.
Frei zu- gänglich und da- mit servicefreund- lich sind alle wich- tigen Hydraulik- Komponenten am bzw. im Maschinenständer un- tergebracht. Der Allrounder 420 C Kompakt und sehr leistungsfähig ist der jüngste Ma- schinentyp der C-Klasse, der Allrounder 420 C 1300. [...] Die kleinere der bei- den verfügbaren Spritzeinheiten wird aber auch auf der 420 C mit 1000 kN Schließkraft eingesetzt. Damit ist die Position der Maschine in der C-Reihe klar: Die 420 C 1300 rundet die Allrounder mit 420 x 420 mm Aufspannmaß nach oben hin ab und stellt somit die ideale Verbindung zu den 470er-Varianten her. [...] ARBURG hat vor einigen Wochen die ersten C- Allrounder ausgeliefert, die mit einem solchen Zwei-Ka- vitäten-Werkzeug arbeiten.
This is exactly what the new ALLROUNDER 320 A will be doing at K 2004, producing a GSM module for the wireless transfer of data. [...] Thus, the three 320 A, 420 A and 520 A machine sizes cover a range of clamping forces from 500 to 2000 kN. [...] Advice on applications helps with specifi c problems, for example in the area of part de- sign or mould confi guration.
With the launch of the ALLROUNDER 320 K, ARBURG has been able to present the legitimate successor to these legendary machines. The 320 K has distances be- tween tie bars of 320 x 320 mm, a clamping force of 700 kN and in- jection units in sizes 100 and 250. [...] Something of interest in rela- tion to the universal application of ALLROUNDER machine tech- nology is the fact that the cylinder modules 100 and 250 in series M and C can also be used on the 320 K. This means that the ma- chine series remains compatible within the ALLROUNDER range.
An ALLROUNDER 520 C 2000-800, featuring a wide range of peripherals and the newly-developed MULTILIFT V vertical robotic system, will be representing the C-series. [...] Also particularly impressive was the powder injection moulding of a knife blade with a part weight of 7.55 grams on an Allrounder 320 C and the production of a table tennis bat as a multi-compo- nent application from ABS and TPE on an Allrounder 630 S. [...] The demands placed on the sensor are high: direct contact with ag- gressive solvents, tem- peratures from -10 °C to +120 °C, pressures of up to 12 bar at 20 °C, up to 8 bar at 120 °C and vacuums down to 0.1 bar absolute pressure.
Focus on handling Various ALLROUNDERs will be used to demonstrate the fl exibility and reliability offered by the new MULTILIFT H in practice. The 320 K and 420 C ALLROUNDERs are fi tted with the MULTILIFT “Com- pact“ package. [...] “Compact“ versions of the MULTILIFT H will be in operation on the ALLROUNDER 320 K and the ALLROUNDER 630 S, while the “Module with B-axis“ will be shown on the 420 C. [...] In addition, there is the pneumatic C-axis, which enables the gripper arm to rotate a maximum of 90° around the longitudinal axis.
