For the plastics industry

Control systems for injection molding and extrusion machines.

Controls for injection moulding and extrusion machines: temperature zones, drives and cycle times. We assess the existing machine first.

What GCG does

  1. PLC migration for injection molding machines

    Replacing the control system of existing injection molding machines with a modern PLC architecture, including robot integration.

  2. Temperature and motion control

    Control engineering for temperature zones, drives, and servo axes on extrusion and injection-molding lines.

  3. Cycle-time and production tracking

    Recording cycle times and production data and presenting them in dashboards. We can add software to compare production runs and exchange data with planning or reporting systems, based on the data available from the controls.

Discuss your application

For an extrusion or film line, the question may concern line controls, coordinated drives or comparing process values during a production run. The available signals and the deviation you need to investigate determine the control or data interface.
