Exhibiting for the first time since the merger of the injection moulding machine activities of Sumitomo Heavy Industries (SHI) with Demag Plastics Group in 2008, Sumitomo (SHI) Demag Plastics Machinery, said the K show was a success. Its orders were 20% higher than K2007 and 40% of the orders were for all-electrics, according to Christian Renners, General Manager Business Unit Sales.
