摘要

KraussMaffei has provided the Institute of Product Engineering at the University of Duisburg-Essen with its new PX 120-380 injection moulding machine to help develop new systems and applications.The all-electric machine has placed a focus of development on autonomous process control,condition monitoring,and predictive maintenance.The PX 120-380 is part of a fully automated production cell along with linear robot and conveyor,making it possible to run processes in a way that resembles those in the real-life industry closer than ever.Prof.Dr.Reingard Schiffers.Chair of the Department of Engineering Design and Plastics Machinery at the University of Duisburg-Essen,said:”The production cell measures up to the state-of-the-art technology in every respect and enables us to merge research and practical applications in digitalisation,not least thanks to the cell's complete digital equipment.”
