ENGEL Servo-hydraulic triumph - Anyone whose investment decisions were driven by the energy efficiency of the injection moulding machi-ne had no alternative but to purchase a fully-electric  machine – up until recently. This has now changed. Fully-hydraulic machines with servo-hydraulics realise energy saving potentials that typically compare well with those of fully-electric machines. In other words, the choice of drive technology is no longer driven by the energy saving potential, but by the application. Fully-electric machines thus continue to replace hydraulic machines in high-performance or fast running applications, whereas servo-hydraulics help to provide a future-oriented answer to energy efficiency questions for companies that produce a versatile range of moulded parts. Furthermore, as increasing affluence and limited resources necessitate a sustainable approach to resource management, energy is bound to increasingly dominate public discussion in the future. ENGEL was one of the early adopters in the energy savings field and is a pioneer in the development of energy-saving injection moulding machines.
