Plastimagen, taking place from March 11 to 14, 2025, in Mexico City, serves as a key platform for the Mexican plastics industry. At stand 730 in hall D, Arburg will showcase two advanced injection moulding machines.
Arburg Additive impressed at Formnext 2024 with the debut of the Freeformer 550-3X, new materials like TR 90 and LMPAEK, and breakthroughs in medical and aerospace applications. Sustainability and innovation took center stage, from recyclable bioplastics to combining plastic and metal printing in cutting-edge research projects.
At Fakuma 2024, Arburg will showcase cutting-edge innovations, including AI-supported apps and smart production systems that reduce costs, improve process transparency, and enhance part quality in injection moulding.
Arburg Mexico and the Technological University of the State of Querétaro (Uteq) have renewed their cooperation agreement to advance plastics education. Through this alliance, Arburg’s Allrounder injection moulding technology will be utilized to provide hands-on training for students, helping to bridge the skills gap in Mexico’s plastics industry
At Mecspe 2025 in Bologna, Arburg and its partner Guberti will present the new electric Allrounder 720 E Golden Electric and the Tiq 2 3D printer. Highlights include live demonstrations of efficient small-part production, 3D printing innovations, and expert advice on digitalisation and sustainability. Visitors can explore advanced solutions for cost efficiency and environmental transformation.
Arburg wowed visitors at Fakuma 2024 in Friedrichshafen with 18 impressive exhibits, including the German debut of the Allrounder 720 E Golden Electric. The company highlighted cutting-edge solutions in injection moulding, sustainability, automation and 3D printing.
At Fakuma 2024, Arburg is presenting the latest addition to its electric injection moulding machine lineup, the Allrounder 720 E Golden Electric, featuring a clamping force of 2,800 kN.
Arburg Additive is set to showcase groundbreaking 3D printing technologies at the 20th anniversary of Rapidtech in Erfurt from May 14-16, 2024, highlighting its presence with two innovative exhibits: the advanced 750-3X Freeformer for plastic granules and the Liq 5 for liquid silicone rubber (LSR) printing.
Machine manufacturer Arburg will be presenting its extensive portfolio for elastomer processing at the German Rubber Conference DKT in Nuremberg, Germany, from 1 to 4 July. The exhibit at the company’s stand will produce bottle openers made of solid silicone for demonstration purposes.
Arburg announces strategic management changes for 2024, welcoming Steffen Kroner as the new head of the Finance, Controlling, IT, and Human Resource Management division starting July 1st. This move follows the establishment of the division and the retirement of key figures.
