KraussMaffei supplies the right technologies for innovative plastics processing in the packaging and logistics industry. We offer high-performance, sustainable solutions for the production of packaging and logistics items. Maximum efficiency, short cycle times, minimal waste and the processing of up to 100 % recycled material ensure cost-effective and resource-efficient processes.
The days when KraussMaffei stored and transported screw elements in wooden crates are a thing of the past. Instead, crates made from recycled plastic are now used.
Not all packaging is equal. For state-of-the art logistics and automated production processes, boxes, pallets and Paloxes must be capable of substantially more than just holding goods. They are moved by storage robots and feature IML barcodes, integrated RFIDs and, of course, the logo of the company that owns them. Ever innovative, Utz has specialized in this application and, for this reason it has commissioned Switzerland's largest injection molding machine, a KraussMaffei MX 4000-75000.
Two companies located just 600 m apart (as the crow flies) are connected closely in every way: Michel Werkzeugbau AG and Wipf AG. Together, they supply aroma-seal valves to the international market. For these and other projects, Michel has invested in 13 new KraussMaffei machines (12 all-electric PX machines and 1 hydraulic CX) since 2019.
