Product information for hybrid ALLROUNDERs

1Production capacity

The hybrid ALLROUNDER machine concept

has been congured with the particular

aim of achieving high production capacities.

The machines provide high injection per-

formance in relation to the relevant clamp-

ing force, and combine:

• servo-electric clamping units from the

ALLROUNDER A and• generously dimensioned injection units

with hydraulic accumulator technology

2Reduced cycle times

All movement axes operate completely in-

dependently from one another. In this way,

simultaneous drive movements can be

achieved whatever the application. Dosage

across cycles permits optimum, uniform ma-

terial preparation, a reduced material tem-

perature and therefore shorter cooling

times. Finally, the extremely short dry cycletimes of the servo-electric clamping unit

provide for fast cycles.

Versatile: hydraulic ALLROUNDERs

Our hydraulic ALLROUNDERs are high-

performance, reliable injection moulding

machines. The machines range from

the low-cost entry level models of the

GOLDEN EDITION series to the individu-

ally adaptable ALLROUNDER S Series.

Our modular design approach opens up

a whole range of cost-efcient options

with several alternative hydraulic and

electric expansion stages as well as vari-

ous equipment versions. Thanks to their

adaptability, the hydraulic ALLROUNDERs

not only offer a wide variety of different

applications, but can also be equipped in

an extremely energy-efcient manner.

You specify your requirements and we

build a suitable hydraulic ALLROUNDER.Especially for you.

1Diverse applications

Hydraulic ALLROUNDER machines can be

optimally adapted for operation in conjunc-

tion with all familiar injection moulding tech-

niques. They impress, not only with their

large range of sizes, but also due to the ease

of integration of various peripherals via the

freely-programmable SELOGICA control sys-

tem. Equipment packages for specic tasksmake the machines exceptionally exible and

suitable for universal applications.

2Cost efciency

The ALLROUNDER GOLDEN EDITION is the

entry-level model in the hydraulic product

range. The machine’s unbeatable price/per-

formance ratio is achieved through the con-

sistent standardisation of the extensive,

technically high-quality standard equip-

ment. Thus, for example, two regulating

pumps and fast-switching valve technologyare provided as standard.

Energy saving: powerful differential piston system

on the clamping unit.

can be adapted precisely to the relevant ap-

plications and energy requirements. This is

achieved by means of several hydraulic and

electric expansion stages, perfectly gradu-

ated clamping forces and injection units, as

well as numerous equipment versions andcombination options.

4Reproducibility

Regulated injection ensures reproducible

mould lling and the customary high

moulded part quality on all hydraulic

ALLROUNDERs. With the “position-regu-

lated screw” expansion stage on the

ALLROUNDER S, injection moulding repro-

ducibility comparable to that of electric ma-

chines can be achieved.

Distance between tie bars: 170 mm - 920 mm

Clamping forces: 125 kN - 5,000 kN

injection units: 30 - 4600

5Reliability

All hydraulic ALLROUNDER models are high-

performance machines featuring quality

workmanship. Optimum availability and a

long service life are synonymous with the

Ergonomic: vertical ALLROUNDERs

If you intend to use vertical injection

moulding machines in your production

facility, we currently offer the widest

range in the entire industry. Our vertical

ALLROUNDERs are designed especially

for the encapsulation of inserts. Our

extensive product range extends from

the ALLROUNDER S, featuring the

ALLROUNDER principle with swivelling

clamping unit and interchangeable

injection unit, our entry-level vertical

model, the ALLROUNDER V, the exible

ALLROUNDER T vertical rotary-table

machines, through to customer-specic,

specically congured vertical machi-

nes. Furthermore, a wide variety of

equipment options and possible combi-nations are available. The choice is yours:

whatever your application requires.

1Ergonomics

A high degree of ergonomics is particularly

important during the processing of inserts,

in order to organise manual operations as

conveniently and efciently as possible. In

the case of the entry-level ALLROUNDER V

machine, this is achieved by means of the

so-called vertical free-space system for the

clamping unit. Tie bars are dispensed with,rendering the mould freely accessible from

three sides.

2Application versatility

The entire technology of the vertical

ALLROUNDERs can always be matched

precisely to the specic injection moulding

task. This is achieved through:

• the wide range of clamping forces and

injection units

• the exible vertical and horizontal

arrangement of the injection units.• task-specic equipment packages,

such as for silicone processing

High exibility: product range with a variety of

machine concepts.

Different clamping systems

Clamping forces: 125 kN - 4,000 kN

Injection units: 30 - 4600

3Automation

In order to enable simultaneous insertion

and removal of items during the injection

process, machine versions with rotary or

sliding tables are also available. This enables

shorter cycle times and thus higher produc-

tivity. The versatile conguration options

ensure that vertical ALLROUNDER machines

can also be easily integrated in automatedproduction lines.

4Process reliability

As you would expect from ARBURG, the in-

jection units of the vertical ALLROUNDERs

offer the customary high plasticising and

moulded part quality. The position-regu-

lated screw enables reproducible injection

movements which are equally accurate to

those of electric machines. The rotary tables

of the ALLROUNDER V and T are generallyservo-electrically driven. This makes them

extremely fast and precise.

5Space optimisation

The greatest advantage of the ALLROUNDER

entry-level machines is their compact design

and small footprint. The scope for planning

the installation of the machines remains cor-

respondingly exible. Full and problem-free

integration in differently designed produc-

tion lines is also possible.

3Electronics

The requirement prole of the electronics

sector is as varied as the sector itself. For

the adornment of surfaces for example,

processes such as in-mould labelling and

decoration must be mastered. In the case of

connectors, however, the encapsulation of

inserts (hybrid technology) and the position-

ing accuracy of the clamping unit are deci-

sive. Highly temperature-resistant plastics

often play a signicant role, the processing

of which requires special injection units. In

order to achieve this economically with high

precision and quality, a wide variety of pro-

duction concepts and ALLROUNDERs are

employed. Whether it be vertical machines,rotary table machines, manual or auto-

mated insertion and removal or reel-to-reel

encapsulation – ARBURG has a suitable so-

lution for all applications.

4Medical/optical applications

In the medical and optical sectors, precision

and cleanliness are paramount. During the

production of mass-produced and disposa-

ble items such as syringes, the machines

must also display high-speed qualities. A

wide variety of materials are used, including

liquid silicone or metals and ceramics,

which are processed using powder injection

moulding technology. In order to compre-

hensively meet the high quality require-

ments, the process sequence is of great im-

portance. With ALLROUNDERs, for example,

sophisticated compression injection mould-

ing processes can be implemented conven-

iently using the user-friendly SELOGICAcontrol system. Depending on their eld of

application, products frequently have to be

produced under clean-room conditions.

ARBURG provides exible and customised

clean--room solutions for this purpose – all

from a single source.

5Technical injection moulding

Complex geometries and high functionality

of the components are important require-

ments which must be met in technical injec-

tion moulding. For this purpose, application

and mould concepts, as well as materials are

further and newly developed on an ongoing

basis, for example multi-component, assem-

bly and functional injection moulding, pow-

der injection moulding or the EXJECTION®

process. In many sectors, the products are

becoming increasingly small and the signi-

cance of micro injection moulding is increas-

ing accordingly. In order to produce these

complex components in high volumes, auto-

mation, i.e. the relevant robotic technologyhas an important part to play. Here, ARBURG

offers everything from a single source: from

comprehensive consulting and precisely

adapted ALLROUNDERs through to complex

production cells.
