What Are The Benefits?

  • Increased Production Efficiency (Up to 60%) The Microgel Syncro technology achieves a remarkable boost in production efficiency by significantly reducing cooling time through precise temperature control. This translates to a potential increase in production output of up to 60%, allowing you to meet demands more effectively and reduce lead times.
  • Enhanced Product Quality: With a focus on precise cooling and optimal temperature control, this technology contributes to better product quality. It improves dimensional tolerances, structural characteristics, and the overall aesthetic finish of your moulded parts by ensuring optimal mould filling, resulting in consistently high-quality products.
  • Excellent Return on Investment: Microgel Syncro offers an impressive ROI, making it a cost-effective investment for your injection moulding process. The combination of increased production and improved product quality can quickly offset the initial investment costs.
  • User-Friendly Configuration: The system is designed for ease of use in injection moulding, featuring simple work recipes that can be stored for each mould. This makes it straightforward for operators to configure and manage, ensuring efficient and hassle-free operation.
  • No Mould Modifications Required: One notable advantage is that Microgel Syncro does not necessitate any modifications to your existing moulds. This means you can implement the technology without significant changes to your current production setup.
  • Intelligent Energy Consumption: The system optimises energy consumption intelligently. It achieves this by reducing injection pressure, minimising hot runner energy usage, and lowering closing force requirements, resulting in cost savings and a greener, more sustainable operation.
  • Proven Performance and Reporting: Microgel Syncro's performance is well-documented, and it can provide a weekly performance report. This report focuses on productivity and uptime, allowing you to track and assess the system's impact on your operations.

What makes the Microgel Syncro different?

Digital Synchronisation

The technology is digitally synchronised with the mould cycle, ensuring that the cooling process aligns perfectly with the production requirements. This contributes to optimal part quality and cycle time.

Parameter Storage

Microgel Syncro offers the ability to memorise and store parameters for each mould, known as "recipes." This feature simplifies setup and ensures consistency in production quality across different moulds.

Energy Analysis

The system provides real-time analysis of energy consumption, measured in kWh/kg. This data allows you to monitor energy efficiency and make informed decisions for further optimisation.

Remote Connectivity

Microgel Syncro typically offers integrated remote connectivity, enabling you to monitor and control the system remotely. This feature enhances convenience and ensures you can manage your processes from anywhere.

Online Recipe Finding

The technology often includes an online wizard for recipe finding specific to your moulds. This simplifies the setup process, especially for new moulds, by guiding operators through the configuration steps.
