Looking to significantly reduce cycle times? Due to the extremely short dry cycle times of the HIDRIVE machines and simultane- ous movements of the clamping unit and ejector, this is not a problem! [...] Compared to a standard hydraulic machine, up to DRY CYCLE TIME SHORTER 2 s 13 Five-point toggle system The double five-point toggle features a stable construction with multiple guidance points. [...] Ideal basis for packaging items: short dry cycle times of the servo-electric clamping unit. High-output production: synchronous ejection enables even faster cycles. 20 © 2025 ARBURG GmbH + Co KG | All data and technical information have been compiled with great care.
Play video Always a great fit: our performance variants Comfort Premium Ultimate Efficient and reliable for technical parts For a wide variety of applications For high-speed and demanding processes Energy requirement down by up to 50% Significantly lower energy requirements and emissions Dry cycle times around 40% shorter Cooling water and oil requirement reduced by up to 35% Dry cycle times around 30% shorter Simultaneous, precise movement of all axes using hydraulic accumulator technology Dry cycle times around 30% shorter Move two hydraulic secondary axes simultaneously GESTICA as standard Accessibility for service and set-up processes optimised GESTICA as standard "aXw Control ScrewPilot" as standard Features GESTICA Ease of use Toggle GESTICA controller The unique GESTICA controller is praised by our customers for its efficiency, ergonomics and intuitiveness.
Spring force characteristic curve recorded in dry cycle mode (mold A). Designed spring force: linear 60 kN over 1,000 µm. [...] With the findings from the behav- ior in dry cycle mode, the share of the in- fluence of the mold filling process can now be clearly identified in the process diagram. [...] This basic information – compression force and spring force together with the findings of the machine run in dry cycle – enable the plastics molder to carry out the commissioning of an injection-com- pression mold successfully.

"Ultimate" – Version expanding on "Premium" for high-speed and challenging processes. • Dry cycle times up to 25 per cent shorter. • Significantly higher injection speeds. • "Ultimate +" – Alternative with maximum injection speeds. [...] Compared to a standard hydraulic machine, up to DRY CYCLE TIME SHORTER 2 s 13 Five-point toggle system The double five-point toggle system features a stable construction with multiple guidance points. [...] With the ALLDRIVE, you maintain full control of your cycle times thanks to simultaneous nozzle movement and dosage across cycles.
Arburg's finely graduated hybrid machine technology is comparable to all-electric machines in terms of dry cycle times and injection speeds. This makes the new Allrounder Hidrive (H) an energy-saving alternative to hydraulic machines and an economical alternative to electric machines, unlike anything previously available on the market. [...] The required cooling water capacity can be reduced by up to 70 per cent and the dry cycle time is also reduced by around 40 per cent. Three performance variants for optimal adaptation The hybrid Allrounder Hidrive is currently available in sizes 470, 520 and 570 and in three performance variants: "Comfort", "Premium" and "Ultimate". [...] The "Premium" performance variant achieves dry cycle times of 1.2 seconds and can be used for a wide range of applications such as the production of precision components for the automotive and electronics industries.
Resource efficient Because you do the maths: first choice for mass-produced items thanks to short cycle times. The ALLROUNDER ALLDRIVE is particularly impressive when it comes to demanding tasks thanks to its attractive quantities and particularly slim design. [...] Ideally suited for technical parts For a wide variety of applications For high-speed and challenging processes Particularly energy-saving operation Dry cycle times up to 15 per cent shorter Dry cycle times up to 25 per cent shorter Reproducible injection with the “aXw Control ScrewPilot” Higher injection speeds Significantly higher injection speeds Servo hydraulics for simultaneous movement of a secondary axis and servo-electric main axes GESTICA and servo-electric mould height adjustment system as standard ULTIMATE+ alternative with injection speeds up to 400 mm/s COMFORT+ alternative with increased injection speeds Extended equipment for special and multi-component processes Features Drives Ease of use Injection unit GESTICA Robust drives Our liquid-cooled servo-electric drives are designed with the application in mind.
The exhibit, an ALLROUNDER 520 H "Premium", will be producing three different moulded parts from ABS in a cycle time of around 50 seconds: a machine base, a feed hopper, and a controller. [...] In this application, the Moldlife Sense computer system enables sensor-controlled mould monitoring over the complete life cycle. The new Multilift Select 8 linear robotic system removes the moulded parts and places them in a box. [...] The required cooling water capacity can be reduced by up to 70 per cent and the dry cycle time is also reduced by around 40 per cent. Three performance variants Thanks to its many options, the ALLROUNDER 520 H can be adapted precisely to individual customer requirements.
The servo-electric drives for "inject", "dose" and "open and close mould" ensure high accelerations, speeds and simultaneous machine movements – and short cycle times as a result. Compared to standard hydraulic machines, dry cycle times are reduced by up to two seconds.
