In this process demonstration, Engel in cooperation with Stäubli Corporation, showcases a quick mold change system that averages a 10-minute mold change but can take as little as 7 minutes, which is particularly beneficial to mold builders involved in short-run production molds. Companies with smaller machines can also benefit as this system may fit their budget better than a fully automated system.
