The topics of digitalisation and sustainability will also be featured at ARBURG stand no. 10J21 in Hall 10, alongside an ALLROUNDER 1600 T rotary table machine, an ALLROUNDER 370 H and a freeformer 300-3X for industrial additive manufacturing. [...] The gripper component of the FLEXLIFT was also additively manufactured there on a freeformer 300-3x. Visitors to Chinaplas will be able to see for themselves how a hard/soft combination made of PC/ABS and TPU can be produced for grippers using the freeformer. [...] The FLEXLIFT 5 with a payload of five kilograms removes the sprue and the moulded parts, which are then deposited separately by cavity. ALLROUNDER 1600 T: Six-axis robot at work Also on display will be an ALLROUNDER 1600 T, which produces liquid connections and connecting parts from polyamide 6 with 35 per cent glass fibre content (PA6 GF 35) and metal inserts.
ARBURG at RAPID + TCT 2022 04/07/2022 From 17 to 19 May 2022, ARBURG will be exhibiting at RAPID + TCT in Detroit, USA. Two freeformer 300-3X models will be on display at stand 2108: a standard system, and a machine for processing high-temperature materials. [...] Safe processing of high-temperature materials The freeformer 300-3X can process high-temperature materials such as ULTEM 9085, which is a permanently flame-retardant and low-smoke material suitable for aerospace applications, and also biocompatible, resorbable, sterilisable and FDA-approved original materials. At RAPID + TCT 2022, the high-temperature freeformer, whose build chamber can be heated to 200 degrees Celsius, will process a medically approved PEEK granulate. The second freeformer 300-3X will produce a two-component gripper made of soft TPU membrane that is positively expanded using compressed air.
Furthermore, the 400 square metre Arburg stand no. 10J21 in Hall 10 will impressively feature the two key topics of digitalisation and sustainability, as well as an Allrounder 1600 T rotary table machine, an Allrounder 370 H and a Freeformer 300-3X for industrial additive manufacturing. [...] The gripper component of the Flexlift was also manufactured there in an additive manufacturing process on a Freeformer 300-3x. A live demonstration of the Freeformer at Chinaplas will show how to manufacture a hard-soft compound from PC/ABS and TPU for grippers. [...] The Flexlift 5 with a payload of five kilograms removes the sprue and the moulded parts, which are then deposited separately downstream according to cavities. Allrounder 1600 T: Six-axis robot at work Finally, the Allrounder 1600 T with 2,000 kN clamping force and size 170 injection unit is likely to attract the attention of customers from the mobility sector.
The presentations were well-received by a total of 1,300 interested parties. More than 3,300 trade visitors at the three-day event were deeply impressed by the approx. 40 exhibits and by ARBURG‘s application expertise. se en masse! INFOBOX Visitors: some 3,300 visitors, including at least 1,300 international guests from 36 countries. [...] But that doesn‘t matter - they don‘t need to know. All they need to be aware of is that without the connectors from Taiwan most mobile phones wouldn‘t work, digital cameras wouldn‘t record and LCD TVs wouldn‘t produce a pic- ture.
Arburg will be there: Two Freeformer 300-3X models will be on show at the exhibition stand (no. 2108): a standard system and a machine for processing high-temperature materials. [...] Safe processing of high-temperature materials The Freeformer 300-3X can process high-temperature materials such as ULTEM 9085, which is a permanently flame-retardant and low-smoke material suitable for aerospace applications, as well as biocompatible, resorbable, sterilisable and FDA-approved original materials. [...] Photos 143759 Friedrich Kanz, Managing Director of Arburg Inc. 166067 At RAPID + TCT in Detroit, two Freeformer 300-3X machines will additively manufacture sophisticated functional parts. 177490 A high-temperature Freeformer 300-3X can process PEEK, for example, into individualised skull implants, including support material.
ARBURGadditive will also be providing information on additive manufacturing services alongside its partner t-exact. "With our freeformers from Arburg and 3D printers from innovatiQ, we offer a broad spectrum for industrial additive manufacturing," says Dr Victor Roman, Managing Director of ARBURGadditive. [...] At 750 square centimetres, its build chamber is around 2.5 times larger than that of the Freeformer 300-3X – with the same external dimensions. This enables it to produce larger functional components or to additively manufacture small batches industrially, including from soft materials and in hard/soft combinations. [...] To demonstrate its associated range of services, Arburg will be joined at its stand this time by partner t-exact from Steinbach-Hallenberg (Thuringia), who will be presenting its services in the areas of additive manufacturing, 3D analysis using computed tomography, and coordinate and profile measurements.
ARBURG's ability to also implement very successful turnkey systems in China and Asia in collaboration with local partners was demonstrated by a production cell built around an ALLROUNDER 1600 T vertical rotary table machine, which overmoulded metal inserts with glass fibre-reinforced PBT to form complex fluid distributors. [...] A FLEXLIFT 10+2 linear robotic system was used for handling. A freeformer 300-3X demonstrated how associated EOAT can be additively manufactured quickly and cost effectively.

[...] In addi- tion, the mould mounting surface is up to 15 per cent larger. Size 1300 T and 1600 T rotary tables can also accommodate signif- icantly higher mould weights of 1,000 and 2,000 kilograms. [...] The ALLROUNDER 1300 T is also the first rotary table machine available with the GESTICA control system.
Successful audit: ARBURG is 2000-compliant 7 C u s t o m e r r e p o r t Injection moulders with tech- nical expertise know where Krauchenwies-Göggingen is located. [...] Full concentration on smartcards C u s t o m e r r e p o r t it is not just the production loca- tions and the company’s subsi- diaries in the USA, France, Germany, Italy, Spain and New Zealand that demand significant expenditures, but also tooling construction and research and de- velopment. [...] Tim Guest, Managing Director for the Tool Construction and Engineer- ing Services Department, boils it down to this: “If you don’t have good toolmakers and machines, you can’t build good tools. And you have to have good tools in order to manufacture good prod- ucts!”
