Partnership that sets standards
Developed for the market. Efficient in operation. Industry-leading performance.
NextGen Medical Solution
The early cooperation and integration of the OEM results in systems that set new standards. The decisive success factor lies in working together as partners: based on a shared understanding of the market and clear requirements, existing features can be used in a targeted manner and new solutions can be developed for the industry at the same time. In this way, each partner actively contributes to the optimum result - because only when everyone pulls together can a product be created that is truly convincing. Together with the OEM Sanofi and our strong partners Hack Formenbau and HB-Therm, we have developed the "NextGen Medical Solution" production system - a solution that will revolutionize future medical production. Together with our partners, we are consistently focusing on innovative technologies and a clear focus on the total cost of ownership (TCO).
TCO - More efficiency, lower costs
We achieve a low total cost of ownership (TCO) through an optimally designed cell with an integrated machine, tool and temperature control concept. The compact design ensures a minimum footprint, shortest cycle times, highest part quality and maximum availability through joint maintenance management over the entire life cycle.
Fast qualification, early production
By closely involving stakeholders along the product value chain, from partners to OEMs, we enable smooth and accelerated qualification and validation. Together with the customer, we consistently use the available pilots and assistants to achieve a large process window and rapid production release. In this way, we significantly shorten the time-to-production.
Competitive advantage through innovation
ARBURG understands the requirements of OEMs, the potential of equipment suppliers and also supports their suppliers with in-depth expertise. With modular technologies, close cooperation and a strong partner network, we create customized solutions that offer real added value for the market.

New standards for the medical production of tomorrow
NextGen production cell
NextGen production cell
In modern medical production cells, far more than just the machine counts - the perfectly coordinated interaction of the entire cell over the entire product life cycle is crucial: from the initial idea through to validated series production. In order to optimally master this complexity, the OEM and selected key partners have jointly developed the production cell of the future - tailored to the customer's requirements and equipped with sophisticated, precisely integrated features. Together, we are shaping the future of medical production.
Compact, efficient and process-optimized
As the heart of the cell, an electric ALLROUNDER 570 A "Comfort" networks processes, data and services. The machine technology used enables high energy savings compared to a standard solution. Together with the partners, the footprint of the entire system was specifically optimized - for a significantly reduced footprint.
Intelligent assistance for maximum process reliability
The consistent use of intelligent ARBURG pilots and assistance systems not only reduces cycle times and ensures maximum part quality, but also further reduces energy consumption. Our advanced assistants, such as the aXw Control MoldlifeAssist, actively support the operator and also make targeted use of AI technologies, for example in stability monitoring. The pilots, on the other hand, control and optimize the process independently. An illustrative example is the ARBURG FlowPilot, which actively and efficiently controls the flow of the water circuits and the temperature control units.
Success Story
Our partners
Sanofi is an R&D driven, AI-powered biopharma company committed to improving people's lives and delivering compelling growth. We apply our deep understanding of the immune system to invent medicines and vaccines that treat and protect millions of people around the world, with an innovative pipeline that could benefit millions more. Our team is guided by one purpose: we chase the miracles of science to improve people's lives; this inspires us to drive progress and deliver positive impact for our people and the communities we serve, by addressing the most urgent healthcare, environmental, and societal challenges of our time.
Hack Formenbau is a provider of high-performance precision tools, showcasing an 8-cavity insulin pen mold equipped with sliders and a full hot runner valve gate system. The tool is fully digitally monitored and controlled to ensure maximum efficiency and quality. Hack Formenbau, specialized in the pharmaceutical market, is committed to continuously advancing and enhancing its products. The company strives to combine digital assistance and precision in moldmaking what represents the basis of the next generation of Moldmaking. Molds are becoming intelligent and can now be fully monitored.
Hack Digital develops advanced systems such as Moldlife Sense and Moldlife Process, designed to simplify and enhance monitoring of the injection molding process. By generating sensor data directly from the mold, these solutions enable intelligent tool management and real-time monitoring. As open systems, the data is shared with partners, who can use it to set up the first foundations for reactive and interconnected systems.in this way,the mold transforms from a purely mechanical black box into a transparent, data-supported system.
HB-Therm temperature control units offer state-of-the-art technology and maximum energy efficiency, delivering reliable processes and high product quality. Features such as OPC UA, e-cockpit and Gate-6 enable seamless integration and remote access, while data recording and monitoring ensure continuous process oversight. A lifetime warranty on the heater and flow meter underscores the exceptional reliability of the system.
