Systec 25-420

The NEW Standard

With Systec, Demag Plastics Group has created a transparent, modular platform providing customers with comprehensive assistance in selecting the machine that meets their specific requirements. Systematically graded and modular throughout, the Systec range allows quick formulation of the optimum machine specification and provides processors with extended capabilities to cater to all market and customer requirements. Systec is equipped with an enhanced machine control system using state-of-the-art computer technology coupled with ergonomic operation, developed from our successful NC4 system. Thus equipped, the machine offers better economy with reduced maintenance costs, setup times, spare parts stock-keeping and a more efficient as well as productive operation.

Delivered within very short deadlines straight after machine specification, the Systec range guarantees a high product quality and helps your production meet future challenges.

Customised and efficient multiple-level configuration: Featuring multiple levels of technology, the Systec range offers a reliable application tailored solution for every job: providing extreme economy for standard jobs and absolute flexibility for changing jobs through to cutting edge performance on high-end applications. In addition, Demag’s popular expansion packages enable the machines capabilities to be expanded to closely match the users’ needs.

Extensive standard equipment: The Systec range encompasses four levels of sophistication. From the basic version through to the high-performance variant with parallel movement of all axis, the Systec offers an optimum solution for every application. Performance ability and scope of the Systec levels are orientated exclusively to users’ practical requirements.

For each level of the Systec line, the field proved Demag expansion packages provide users with a cost-effective and comprehensive possibility to customise a machine to suit their specific application.

Linear guides provide a high degree of movement performance

An outstanding feature of the Systec is its high degree of movement performance. Standard linear guides reduce movement resistance and so not only save force and energy but also permit higher speeds and, consequently, faster cycle times. Linear guides also provide higher precision with respect to platen parallelism. This also goes to improve process consistency. Optionally, an additional hydraulic accumulator is available which provides a higher injection speed and consequently, reduces cycle time.

activeQ - Active mould protection

Process stability and reliability are enhanced in all machines upwards of the Systec Smart level with a comprehensive monitoring package, dubbed the “activeQ“. The sensitive, active mould protection system protects both the machine and mould. An electronic sensor determines the force required at the toggle, or the hydraulic pressure, depending on the particular design, during a normal cycle that is necessary for the movement of the mould and stores it as a master curve in the machine controller. During every cycle, the controller compares the variation of the force against the master curve. If the current values deviate, the clamping unit is actively stopped. The mould protection system responds even when highly dynamic movements occur, monitoring the machine actively over the complete cycle and without extending the cycle time.
Deviations may be caused by moulded parts that remain in the cavity, by mould wear, or malfunctions of cores and ejectors. This means there is active protection for high-cost moulds which increases their useful life.

Sumitomo and Demag Integration Update

Sumitomo and Demag will integrate both companies in Europe by the end of 2008. The integration of Demag Plastics Group, Schwaig, into the Sumitomo Heavy Industries Group is proceeding efficiently.
