Standard:

The sleeve is completely removed for maintenance work or to allow the machine to cool down when the plastic is changed.

2-piece with retaining strap:

Additional retaining straps allow fast, two-stage disassembly of the insulation for maintenance and setup work. While part of the sleave remains fixed to the machine with the retaining straps, the upper part can be removed quickly and easily using Velcro.

1-piece with retaining strap (hinged):

The internal retaining straps allow the insulating sleeve to be opened without having to perform complete disassembly. This means that maintenance work and cooling phases can be performed quickly and easily.

HKT Hienz Kunststofftechnik measurement results in 92224 Amberg.

The measurements were carried out on an Engel 400 ton injection moulding machine with a cylinder Ø of 60 mm, once with and once without insulating sleeves.

The material used was an ABS/PC.

 

Engel 400 ton injection moulding machine without insulation

Energy consumption approx. 4 KW, power consumption 100% (in automatic mode)

 

SGM Engel 400 ton injection moulding machine with insulation

Energy consumption approx. 2.5 KW, power consumption 62.5% (in automatic mode)

Savings of 37.5%

This does not include the savings during the heating phases.
