More Capacity. More Speed. Double Investment in Two New SGMs

More Capacity. More Speed. Double Investment in Two New SGMs

New ARBURG 320 C and new ARBURG 270 C

Expansion of production capacities despite challenging global market conditions: double investment in ARBURG 320 C and ARBURG 270 C with handling robots.

We continue to invest. Two new injection molding machines from ARBURG – an ALLROUNDER 320 C and an ALLROUNDER 270 C – are now going into operation. Both machines are equipped with automated part removal via handling robots.

Market conditions remain challenging. For us, that is no reason to slow down. Quite the opposite: demand remains high, and we already expect further growth next year. That is exactly why we are investing now. More capacity, more stability, more output. The new SGMs are designed for series production: short cycle times, clean processes and consistent quality. Automated part removal ensures the machines keep running — not standing still.

Others talk about growth — we make it happen.

Performance data, equipment and capabilities
