Germany campaign with IntElect special series launched for Kuteno

Anniversary machine IntElect #80000

With the launch of their nationwide campaign in Germany, Sumitomo (SHI) Demag Plastics Machinery GmbH, Schwaig, caused a sensation at KUTENO – Kunststofftechnik Nord – 2023. On the occasion of the handover of the 80,000th fully electric injection molding machine during K-Messe 2022, the company is now offering a special series of the IntElect under the motto “IntElect #80000” to celebrate this anniversary, which clearly focuses on the fully electric future in plastics processing.

The KUTENO, held from May 9 to 11, 2023, in Rheda-Wiedenbrück, was the perfect platform for this. More than 300 exhibitors provided visitors with a comprehensive overview of the entire value chain of plastics processing. The lecture and accompanying program on sustainable plastics processing and energy saving in plastics technology was particularly well received.

Package tailored with numerous advantages

To bring the potential of fully electric injection molding machines closer to even more customers, Sumitomo (SHI) Demag, as a market leader in this field, has put together a package that includes numerous benefits. These include not only calculations of the energy-saving potential but also extensive information and advice on funding eligibility. The IntElect is eligible for up to 40 percent funding because it enables sustainable production. Furthermore, the special series underscores its quality promise with a five-year warranty.

“The handover of the 80,000th machine was a milestone for us. It once again demonstrates the quality of our products and the loyalty of our customers,” explained Managing Director Gerd Liebig. “As a global market leader in fully electric injection molding machines, we offer our customers a resource-efficient, energy-efficient, and fast solution for their production. Additionally, we meet the demand for integrated production cells that require minimal installation space.”

Fully electric injection molding machines on everyone's lips

Visitors to KUTENO showed great interest in the offering, reported Stefan Sonnhalter, Sales Manager North Germany, who was on site. “We received numerous inquiries and had good discussions about our Germany campaign. It addresses exactly the right topics because, thanks to sustainability and energy saving, fully electric injection molding machines are on everyone's lips, and more and more customers are convinced by the efficiency advantages. Overall, the mood at the fair was optimistic and forward-looking.”

The IntElect is considered the benchmark for the lowest energy consumption and highest precision. The centerpiece is the specially developed drive technology. Customers benefit from an optimal investment with a quick ROI, shorter cycle times, maximum performance of the direct drives, highest safety in quality, less scrap thanks to high process consistency, low maintenance costs, and fewer downtimes due to the highest reproducibility of axis movements, as well as minimal energy consumption through recuperation technology. Another advantage is the compact design with optimized tool height and opening stroke.
