Investing in new energy-efficient all-electric injection moulding machinery can be highly productive. However, there can be a number of untapped opportunities to boost efficiency, output yields and product quality even further.

Combined with automation, digital tools, remote diagnostics, expert field tests and processing optimisations and workforce training, plastic manufacturers are discovering that they are able to increase productivity by 50% or more on the original process and virtually eliminate production downtime.

In this paper, Sumitomo (SHI) Demag UK presents its latest ‘levelling up’ productivity insights to reveal the proven output and increased production capacity gains that plastic processors can realise. Including the tools and injection moulding technologies available to gain higher production yields and reduce overheads to secure more operational profits.
