Engel improves operator ergonomics, thus boosting productivity
Injection moulding machines that you can talk to are still science fiction, but as human-machine interaction continues to grow closer, communication is becoming increasingly easy. Intuitive control logic plays an important role here, such as the next generation CC 200 machine control unit recently presented by Engel. Another important step to shortening the man-machine divide is that of extending control logic by optimising operator ergonomics.
Wireless LAN as a cost saver
Gammaflux Europe GmbH, Wiesbaden/Germany, has for some time been offering its new option, "Wireless LAN", for all of its hot runner temperature controllers. It permits particularly low-cost remote monitoring of the temperature controllers and the operating condition of the hot runner system, as the complex wiring that was necessary hitherto can now be completely waived.
