LGF-Technology

Properly Amplified with Long glass fiber reinforcement

Product information

When processing rod-shaped granulates with an injection molding machine, very good fiber lengths can be achieved. These, in turn, form the basis for improved component properties compared to short fiber-reinforced polymers. However, long fiber lengths combined with optimum fiber homogeneity can only be achieved with the correct choice of injection molding screw. The decisive factor is whether pultruded or coated rod granulate is used. KraussMaffei has the ideal screw geometry for both options.

Combination options LGF-Technology

CX series (500 - 4,200 kN)

Each machine can be upgraded individually: In the fully hydraulic CX series, KraussMaffei offers outstanding compact, efficient and flexible technology and provides the basis for expansion with all available injection molding processes.

GX series (4,000 - 14,500 kN)

Benefit from the first-class hydromechanical dual platen concept of the GX Series in conjunction with the single-piston injection system. Thanks to the modular design, the compact dual platen clamping unit can be individually configured with all available injection units.

MX series (13,000 - 60,000 kN)

KraussMaffei is the market leader in large-scale injection molding machines. Our MX Series is recognized around the world and is principally characterized by the hydro-mechanical dual platen clamping unit, which we developed ourselves. The performance spectrum ranges from compact injection molding units with basic automation and highly complex production cells, through to complete factory planning
