Many stamping die components such as strip guiding are usually produced in small quantities, which is quite expensive and time-consuming. That is why using standardised components is a good option. Advantages include immediate availability, the combination possibilities of the different types of strip guiding within the stamping die, and the provided CAD data for the design. The following takes a closer look at the strip guiding solutions available at Meusburger.

La nueva unidad de diagnóstico de cámara caliente profiTEMP TM de Meusburger se ha diseñado para probar, en particular, el funcionamiento eléctrico de resistencias y sensores, así como para precalentar y calentar la cámara caliente.

Meusburger offers you the right spring for every requirement - from very low to extremely high loads. The range also includes perfectly matched accessories for smooth installation of system and elastomer compression springs. All springs are available from stock at Meusburger.

2021 was complicated by both supply shortages and rising commodity prices, as well as limited customer visits due to the Covid situation. Despite these challenges, Meusburger was able to guarantee its customers continuous service and constant delivery availability. Thus, the standard parts manufacturer from Austria was able to achieve a turnover of 302 million euros thanks to the large warehouse and the high proportion of in-house production.

The powerMOVE lever operated lifting plate is an integral part of the hot half in our range of valve gate systems. Matched to the sizes in the plates range, various standardised powerMOVE units are available, which are customised according to the individual requirements. The arrangement of the nozzles can be freely configured.

Meusburger once again expanded its workshop equipment product range with innovations in almost all product groups in autumn 2021. In particular, the assembly equipment, consumables and EDM accessories product ranges were expanded.

The industry continues to face significant bottlenecks along the entire supply chain. As a consequence, prices for both raw materials and commodities continue to rise, along with massive increases in energy, freight and transport costs. This creates uncertainty for many companies.

From the 12–16 October Meusburger was represented at Fakuma, the international trade fair for plastics processing in Friedrichshafen, Germany. The range for injection moulders as well as the standard and custom hot runner systems were in the spotlight. The visitors in hall A2 at stand 2313 and 2317 also got the first look at Meusburger’s brand new trade fair stand design. Another particular highlight at the stand was the Engel injection moulding machine, which visitors were able to watch live in action producing bread boxes.

Absolute cleanliness is required in production under cleanroom conditions such as in the food or pharmaceutical industries. Of course perfect cleanliness is also essential for temperature regulation. The new low-leakage couplers from Meusburger provide the optimal foundation for this.

La amplia oferta de muelles de Meusburger cubre cualquier aplicación, ya se empleen cargas muy bajas muy altas. A fin de simplificar lo más posible el proceso de diseño, la empresa lanzó a principios de año una guía de selección de muelles de compresión. Es intuitiva y fácil de utilizar, por lo que en solo unos pasos localiza el más idóneo. Los datos CAD en 3D configurables pueden descargarse acto seguido.

Ante-chamber bushes are used in hot runner nozzles for providing the required nozzle shape in the cavity plate. They help to quickly restore the gate point quality in applications with abrasive plastics. The ante-chamber bush ensures optimum cooling in the gate point.

The current sharp increase of raw material prices is causing uncertainty for many companies. The dramatic rise in costs is due to the increasing demand for steel which has resulted in a global steel shortage. This has caused not only supply bottlenecks but an extreme increase in prices. For example, the price for steel grade 1.1730 has doubled. From today’s perspective, it is unclear when the situation will ease again.

¿Su tapón roscado tiene fugas? Evítelas gracias a la exclusiva variante con cono sellante de Meusburger, que sella de inmediato los taladros sin necesidad de usar cinta de teflón. De este modo, el tiempo de montaje se reduce en un 80 % respecto a los productos habituales.

In today’s world, standardisation plays a major role for successfully operating a company in most industries. This also applies for the hot runner sector where substantial time and savings potentials are possible through standardisation. The FH hot runner mould from Meusburger is the perfect example. It consists of a complete mould base including a hot runner system.

Meusburger has been developing innovative solutions for die making for over 10 years. But how did they get involved in this area? Let’s take a look into the past.

Slide retainers are needed to hold slides securely in the end position when the mould is open. With the new E 3050 leaf spring roll stopper, Meusburger has created an exclusive and cost-effective alternative to existing solutions on the market. The compact design enables retaining forces of up to 140 N and is therefore also ideal for holding large slide bodies in their end position. In order to cover a wide range of applications, the leaf spring roll stopper is available in two different variations and three different leaf spring thicknesses.

Para responder como corresponde a las necesidades de los clientes, Meusburger amplía con regularidad su cartera de productos. Así lo hizo una vez más a mediados de octubre con la gama de suministros para talleres. Se agregaron productos para el acabado superficial, elementos de sujeción y herramientas de montaje nuevos y se completó el vasto surtido de herramientas de corte y accesorios para la electroerosión con variantes adicionales.

Según un estudio, las empresas de fabricación de moldes dedican una media de 600 horas anuales a la puesta a punto de cada máquina. Ahora bien, esta cifra puede reducirse de manera significativa utilizando un sistema de amarre de punto cero. Como proveedor de placas de renombre, Meusburger va más allá: los clientes pueden incluso solicitar que se incorporen a las placas taladros para los pernos de su sistema de amarre de punto cero. Con este servicio adicional, se optimiza la cadena de valor para el mecanizado de placas.

Together with their customer Schmidt WFT, Meusburger has developed a CAD tool that is now available to you free of charge. This tried and trusted tool is coordinated with the Siemens NX CAD system and enables designers to carry out a simple and time-saving design process. Configurations of components which are native in the system can be selected and all parameters are automatically adjusted. Installation spaces and the colour table standards developed by Meusburger together with the Association of German Tool and Mould Makers are also integrated in the tool. The parts list is automatically updated when changes are made.

Guide pillars with a conical shank are new in the Meusburger range. They can be quickly and easily replaced directly on the stamping press, which makes them incredibly practical.

In addition to the existing sizes with slide surfaces of 12 x 10 mm and 15 x 12 mm, the tried and trusted E 3310 TT slide unit from Meusburger has been expanded with two new sizes with slide surfaces of 8 x 6 mm and 18 x 14 mm. The ready-to-use slide unit reduces overall costs during design and mould manufacturing. In addition, daily work is facilitated through the compatibility of the components and the direct download of CAD data including installation spaces. Small slide units are in particular demand for complex moulds.

The abrasive and adhesive wear that occurs during the stamping process on the cutting punch is minimised by coatings. This leads to a significant increase in the service life of cutting punches and consequently also reduces machine downtimes. In addition, the retracting forces are reduced due to the lower coefficient of friction. Different coatings are used depending on the materials to be punched. We give you an overview of the common coatings with their respective properties and application areas.

Meusburger offers the compact build-in cylinder with flange ideal for the smallest installation spaces. Thanks to uncomplicated incorporation and the supplied screws, it can be installed in no time at all. In addition, the two-step installation hole protects the sealing during installation. New in range is the build-in cylinder with flange with a piston diameter of 20 mm.

In addition to the classic materials for sliding guides such as steel and bronze, sintered iron has long been regarded as a strong alternative in die making. Thanks to its porosity, it is ideally suited for use as a slide bearing. It also offers high wear resistance and has very good emergency operating features.

The cavity pressure is an important parameter in process monitoring during plastic injection moulding. Pressure sensors are therefore indispensable for comprehensive mould monitoring. The use of high-quality piezoelectric sensors leads to optimal process quality and increases part quality sustainably. Two different technologies are available on the market for charge transfer: single wire and coaxial cables. We will show you the essential differences and characteristics of these two variants.

The Meusburger HWS 104 premium power clamp line features extremely robust and ergonomic design. This ensures simple, fast and reliable clamping of injection moulds and reduces your machine downtimes.

Reducing processing time and optimising costs is especially important for injection moulds with moderate shot weights. In addition, flawless surface quality is often required for injection moulded parts. 1.2738 TSHH steel has long been established on the market for this purpose. This steel is especially useful in the automotive industry, but also for consumer goods. Meusburger now offers cavity plates and standard plates in the material grade 1.2738 TSHH available from stock.

To meet the different requirements for cutting steels used in die making, Meusburger has a large selection of NE blocks for eroding that cover a wide range of materials - including classic steel for through hardening, high-speed steel, powder metallurgical steel and carbide. The blocks for eroding are mainly used for the production of cutting punches and dies and are available from stock in heat-treated and hardened versions. Their thicknesses are perfectly matched to the plates of Meusburger’s standardised die sets.

Position sensing plays an important role in a reliable injection moulding process. Whether for monitoring the end positions of a slide, ejector set or hydraulic cylinder – mechanical and inductive sensors have become essential in modern mould and die making. Here is an overview of the most common variations for position control of components in the mould.

Latch locks are used to control moulds with 2 split lines, often referred to as 3-plate moulds. With the new E 1817 latch lock, Meusburger has created an exclusive and cost-effective alternative to existing products on the market, such as round or flat latch locks. Thanks to its simple mechanical functional principle, the new latch lock offers maximum reliability in the control of 3-plate moulds. In addition, it features a compact design as well as low machining effort prior to its installation.

Meusburger offers the optimal solutions for machining hardened material up to 67 HRC. The hard milling cutters in different variations achieve highest precision and quality. Most milling cutters are used in Meusburger’s own production. This means that the range is perfectly matched to the requirements and materials in mould and die making.

At this year’s K trade fair in Düsseldorf, the Meusburger stand featured the new configurator for hot runner moulds. The new cavity pressure sensors and many other Meusburger products were also presented to visitors, alongside the unmissable hot runner and control systems, WBI Knowledge Management and ERP software.

During 2020, Meusburger fully integrates the hot runner and control systems specialist PSG, which was taken over in 2016, into the company and will then operate under the Meusburger brand. PSG remains a strong product brand.

At this year’s Blechexpo in Stuttgart (5-8 November), the Meusburger stand (hall 6, stand 6107) will feature the brand new standardised stamping and forming die set from Meusburger and Bihler. The companies WBI and Segoni will also offer a glimpse into their product range.

Of course the divisions of hot runner and control systems, Knowledge Management, and ERP will also be presented.

For easier demoulding of internal undercuts in plastic parts, ejectors for inclined ejection units can often be used instead of slide units. With the new E 3270 Inclined ejection unit, Meusburger offers a cost-effective and ready-to-use alternative to the existing ejectors for inclined ejection units on the market. The part geometry is created with a block for eroding which allows for maximum design flexibility. The DLC coating of the ejector rod ensures minimal wear, best sliding properties and ultimately a long service life.

From 16 –21 September EMO, the trade fair for metalworking, will open its doors in Hannover. Meusburger will be present again this year in Hall 5 at Stand E23. Visitors will be shown the extensive selection of materials as well as standard elements specially for jigs and fixtures construction.

A mediados de junio Meusburger amplió la línea de suministros para talleres incorporando creaciones novedosas y más variantes a las sublíneas de herramientas de corte, accesorios para la electroerosión y elementos de sujeción. Las de instrumentos de medición, accesorios de elevación y productos para el acabado superficial también se complementaron con artículos nuevos.

Fiel al lema «Todo de manos de un único proveedor», Meusburger ofrece, además de elementos normalizados para controlar la temperatura y la posición final, sensores capaces de medir la presión en la cavidad del molde.

With the new embossing elements from Meusburger, stamped parts can be marked quickly and easily. On the one hand this serves for clear traceability of stamped parts, and on the other hand for visual monitoring of the correct machine parameters.

The advantages of DLC coating are clear: longer service life and reduced maintenance. The new E 3174 flat guiding stock from Meusburger guarantees optimal sliding properties and minimal wear thanks to the DLC coated surface.

Stainless steel components are mainly used in processing corrosive plastics or in clean room technology (e.g. medical or food processing applications). Meusburger has expanded its product range especially in the temperature regulation components, ejectors, and demoulding product groups with numerous new stainless steel components.

En el mundo empresarial todos crecemos a la par, tanto en términos logísticos como económicos. La globalización está aumentando la presión competitiva en el campo de la fabricación de matrices y utillajes, si bien es cierto que nos ofrece la oportunidad de aprovechar encargos de mercados emergentes. Al mismo tiempo, la espiral de la innovación avanza cada vez más rápido, lo que exige flexibilidad y capacidad de adaptación a las empresas, que también se ven obligadas a ser más y más eficientes para competir en costes y plazos. En este escenario, un grado de estandarización elevado a lo largo de toda la cadena de procesos permite rebajar de forma drástica los costes y los plazos de un proyecto.

For wire EDM, a starting hole in the block for eroding is advantageous since otherwise the EDM contour cannot be optimally determined and it leads to high wear if the wire is introduced from the side. That’s why Meusburger now provides the new NE-Blocks for eroding with customisable starting holes.

Not all stress-relieving heat treatment is the same – because only a proper heat treatment process ensures the desired result in the end. That is why Meusburger has been using its own furnaces for almost 30 years. Meusburger stands for top-quality products – only flawless steel from the best-known steelworks can make it through the quality check. Standard parts that are heat-treated for stress relief are right at the beginning of the die and mould making process chain and form the basis of high-quality moulds and dies.

Increasing with high temperatures, leakage problems can occur at various points. Sooner or later, the typical brass plugs can lead to leaks – this results in machine downtimes and increased maintenance intervals. It is often assumed that the problem is the sealant used, but this is usually not the reason: Due to different coefficients of expansion of brass plugs and steel plates, setting occurs during heating and cooling of the mould which consequently leads to leakage.

The logic distributors by Meusburger in combination with the new limit switches with roller or dome plunger enable universal die set monitoring. The sensors of the limit switches are able to collect signals from different installation positions due to the adjustable roller. The manifold combines several of these signals without voltage drop. Simple and quick installation with maximum flexibility is ensured by the compact design and the many plug-in options.

From the 16th to the 20th of October 2018, the Meusburger Group will be represented at the international trade fair for the processing of plastics in hall A2 at stand 2313 and 2317. With the motto ‘everything from a single source’, Meusburger, PSG, WBI and the youngest group member, Segoni will present new and tried and trusted products and services in the field of mould and die making.

The new member of the Meusburger family of compact slide units is the E 3310 TT-Slide unit, which features a compact design. The ready-to-use slide unit reduces overall costs during design and tool manufacturing. In addition, daily work is facilitated through the compatibility of the components and the direct download of CAD data including installation spaces. Small slide units are in particular demand for complex moulds.

Especially for long side cut-outs, a longer strip guiding rail is necessary in order to completely cover the cut-outs and therefore prevent the lifting-off of the strip. For this reason, Meusburger now offers the E 5636 Strip guiding rail in the additional lengths 60 and 100 mm.

Marking stamps are used for clear marking of injection-moulded parts. To prevent unintended movement of the arrow insert, Meusburger now offers stamps with a latching function. These ensure even higher process reliability during the injection moulding process, and prevent parts being marked incorrectly.

Wolfurt/Austria. The internationally active Meusburger Group with headquarters in Wolfurt will be taking over Segoni. The Berlin software specialist will continue as an independent enterprise, and all employees will be retained. In the coming years, long-term investments will be made in the further development of the software. Alongside the knowledge-based management method WBI, customers of the Meusburger Group will also be supported in the area of ERP/PPS through the digitalisation process.

Moving components without hard carbon coating (diamond-like carbon, or DLC for short) can hardly be imagined in modern die and mould making. But what is so good about this coating? Through examples, Meusburger shows the clear advantages and uses of DLC coated standard components.

Meusburger presenta en Stanztec novedades exclusivas para el concepto modular.

Se agregaron productos para el acabado superficial, elementos de sujeción y herramientas de montaje nuevos y se completó el vasto surtido de herramientas de corte y accesorios para la electroerosión con variantes adicionales.

Guide pillars with a conical shank are new in the Meusburger range. They can be quickly and easily replaced directly on the stamping press, which makes them incredibly practical.

The abrasive and adhesive wear that occurs during the stamping process on the cutting punch is minimised by coatings. This leads to a significant increase in the service life of cutting punches and consequently also reduces machine downtimes. In addition, the retracting forces are reduced due to the lower coefficient of friction. Different coatings are used depending on the materials to be punched. We give you an overview of the common coatings with their respective properties and application areas.

In addition to the classic materials for sliding guides such as steel and bronze, sintered iron has long been regarded as a strong alternative in die making. Thanks to its porosity, it is ideally suited for use as a slide bearing. It also offers high wear resistance and has very good emergency operating features.

To meet the different requirements for cutting steels used in die making, Meusburger has a large selection of NE blocks for eroding that cover a wide range of materials - including classic steel for through hardening, high-speed steel, powder metallurgical steel and carbide.

The new cavity pressure sensors and many other Meusburger products were also presented to visitors, alongside the unmissable hot runner and control systems, WBI Knowledge Management and ERP software.

At this year’s K trade fair in Düsseldorf (16 to 23 October), the Meusburger stand (hall 1, stand C30) will feature the new and one-of-a-kind configurator for hot runner moulds. In addition, the new cavity pressure sensors and many other Meusburger products will be presented. Of course the divisions of hot runner and control systems, Knowledge Management, and ERP will also be presented.

For easier demoulding of internal undercuts in plastic parts, ejectors for inclined ejection units can often be used instead of slide units. With the new E 3270 Inclined ejection unit, Meusburger offers a cost-effective and ready-to-use alternative to the existing ejectors for inclined ejection units on the market. The part geometry is created with a block for eroding which allows for maximum design flexibility. The DLC coating of the ejector rod ensures minimal wear, best sliding properties and ultimately a long service life.

A mediados de junio Meusburger amplió la línea de suministros para talleres incorporando creaciones novedosas y más variantes a las sublíneas de herramientas de corte, accesorios para la electroerosión y elementos de sujeción. Las de instrumentos de medición, accesorios de elevación y productos para el acabado superficial también se complementaron con artículos nuevos.

Fiel al lema «Todo de manos de un único proveedor», Meusburger ofrece, además de elementos normalizados para controlar la temperatura y la posición final, sensores capaces de medir la presión en la cavidad del molde. Gracias a los cables de conexión correspondientes, son compatibles con todos los sistemas de análisis habituales. En la gama se incluyen sensores de dos tipos, uno para la medición directa y otro para la indirecta, así como los accesorios de montaje y cables de conexión pertinentes. Todo ello, como de costumbre, disponible de inmediato y con datos CAD listos para su descarga en la tienda online de Meusburger.

Meusburger propone una alternativa al laborioso bloqueo lateral de correderas: el cilindro con enclavamiento E 7055. Este componente simplifica el diseño al requerir menos piezas y ahorra tanto espacio como, a la larga, un tiempo valioso.

The advantages of DLC coating are clear: longer service life and reduced maintenance. The new E 3174 flat guiding stock from Meusburger guarantees optimal sliding properties and minimal wear thanks to the DLC coated surface.

Stainless steel components are mainly used in processing corrosive plastics or in clean room technology (e.g. medical or food processing applications). Meusburger has expanded its product range especially in the temperature regulation components, ejectors, and demoulding product groups with numerous new stainless steel components.

For wire EDM, a starting hole in the block for eroding is advantageous since otherwise the EDM contour cannot be optimally determined and it leads to high wear if the wire is introduced from the side. That’s why Meusburger now provides the new NE-Blocks for eroding with customisable starting holes.

Not all stress-relieving heat treatment is the same – because only a proper heat treatment process ensures the desired result in the end. That is why Meusburger has been using its own furnaces for almost 30 years. Meusburger stands for top-quality products – only flawless steel from the best-known steelworks can make it through the quality check. Standard parts that are heat-treated for stress relief are right at the beginning of the die and mould making process chain and form the basis of high-quality moulds and dies.

Increasing with high temperatures, leakage problems can occur at various points. Sooner or later, the typical brass plugs can lead to leaks – this results in machine downtimes and increased maintenance intervals. It is often assumed that the problem is the sealant used, but this is usually not the reason: Due to different coefficients of expansion of brass plugs and steel plates, setting occurs during heating and cooling of the mould which consequently leads to leakage.

The logic distributors by Meusburger in combination with the new limit switches with roller or dome plunger enable universal die set monitoring. The sensors of the limit switches are able to collect signals from different installation positions due to the adjustable roller. The manifold combines several of these signals without voltage drop. Simple and quick installation with maximum flexibility is ensured by the compact design and the many plug-in options.

The new member of the Meusburger family of compact slide units is the E 3310 TT-Slide unit, which features a compact design. The ready-to-use slide unit reduces overall costs during design and tool manufacturing. In addition, daily work is facilitated through the compatibility of the components and the direct download of CAD data including installation spaces. Small slide units are in particular demand for complex moulds.

Marking stamps are used for clear marking of injection-moulded parts. To prevent unintended movement of the arrow insert, Meusburger now offers stamps with a latching function. These ensure even higher process reliability during the injection moulding process, and prevent parts being marked incorrectly.

Moving components without hard carbon coating (diamond-like carbon, or DLC for short) can hardly be imagined in modern die and mould making. But what is so good about this coating? Through examples, Meusburger shows the clear advantages and uses of DLC coated standard components.

Para los espacios de montaje más pequeños Meusburger ofrece a partir de ahora y en exclusiva un compacto cilindro de montaje con brida que se fija sin complicaciones mediante los cuatro tornillos incluidos. El taladro de dos niveles para incorporarlo protege además las juntas durante el montaje.

Meusburger is constantly expanding its range of temperature regulation solutions, which leads to a higher level of safety in operation as well as savings in time during the design and use. New in the range are temperature regulation components with sealant, plug-in type bridges and the Stäubli RMI Multi coupler system.

The new high-feed milling cutters WZF 11512 and WZF 11522, or HFC milling cutters for short (HFC stands for High Feed Cutting), are mainly used for roughing. This procedure is particularly economical, as very high cutting speeds and feed rates can be reached. In addition, these milling cutters guarantee higher process reliability through a controlled wear process without cutting edge breakage.

The new E 1307 Fine centring unit, flat from Meusburger features minimal installation space which provides for maximum space utilisation within the insert. Through the DLC coated centring elements available with or without fixing holes the designer enjoys maximum flexibility during design, and the wear is reduced to a minimum.

Die casting moulds have to meet highest demands. In order to meet these requirements, Meusburger offers a specially selected range of high-precision standard components and a matching range of products for the workshop.

The exclusive E 3064 Guide for inclined pin stands out due to optimal surface contact with the inclined pin and best material pairings. This results in a high force absorption. The machining of the pocket in the slide is possible without inclining. In addition the slide stroke can be adjusted subsequently by customising, or adjusting the position of the guide for inclined pin.

From the 17th to the 21st of October, Meusburger presents both the tried and trusted products and numerous innovations at the international trade fair for the processing of plastics. The precision cutting and grinding machine, the gear unit for stack moulds, and the high temperature hose are just a few of the product highlights that can be seen at the Meusburger stand no. 2313 in hall A2.

The expert in standard components Meusburger now has the smartFILL single nozzles from PSG in range. Best part quality and a wide range of applications make the smartFILL hot runner single nozzle the poster child of PSG. By using this nozzle the melt is tempered homogeneously to the injected part guaranteeing highest quality of parts. With the easily interchangeable nozzle tips, different types of gating are possible which makes the smartFILL nozzles suitable for a wide range of applications and all common thermoplastics with and without fillers.

The new E 2187 IsoTemp® high temperature hoses from Meusburger combine tried and trusted technology with an innovative silicone sheath. This offers protection against burns as well as against abrasion or damages to the metal sheath. Therefore there is no risk of injuries from protruding wires. The special construction provides for high durability and maximum flexibility.

Ergonomics plays a central role in the design of a safe and healthy working environment in many areas. With the new tiltable tables and magnetic clamping balls, which enable ergonomic work during polishing, the standard parts manufacturer expands its workshop equipment range and makes an important contribution for modern workplace design.

For the synchronous control of stack moulds Meusburger offers the stable and precise E 8630 Gear unit for stack moulds in two compact sizes. The two types in module 3 or module 4 stand for the highest precision and quality. The closed housing provides highest stability and safety.

You can save time and costs along the entire production process from design to manufacturing with the use of tunnel gate inserts. The expert in standard components Meusburger has recently expanded its range with two new versions especially for large contour steps.

The standard parts manufacturer Meusburger expands its product range in the area of electrical components. The E 65620 Magnetic proximity sensor for T-slots with reliable and precise switching point is ideally suited for use as a cylinder sensor. For easy and secure fixing of cables within the moulds, Meusburger now also offers the universally usable E 2766 Magnetic cable retainer.

The standard parts manufacturer Meusburger expands its range of workshop equipment especially coordinated to die and mould making with high-quality high-pressure clamping equipment. In addition to the tried and trusted centring vices Meusburger now offers high-pressure vices in three different variations. Due to the integrated power amplifier a clamping force of up to 50 kN is reached. The repeatable accuracy during clamping is 0.01 and enables highest precision in the machining of workpieces.

From now on the standard parts manufacturer Meusburger also offers hydraulic cylinders with a stroke of up to 200 mm available from stock. Thanks to the finely graduated stroke lengths a large application range is possible. Due to the standard lengths and transverse holes the double-acting cylinders can be flexibly installed.

As of now, the switching elements of the Meusburger E 1820 Flat latch lock and E 1840 Round latch lock are DLC coated. This enables an even longer service life and, due to excellent dry-running properties, makes the latch locks suitable for use in cleanrooms.

Since October Meusburger offers a flat-face centring unit with round fitting. This innovative product in the range of Meusburger locks offers an additional option for a reliable and exact final centring of the mould at the split line face. Due to its geometry the new centring unit is optimal for moulds with unequal thermal expansion.

The compact ejector accelerator from Meusburger is the ideal device for the safe and targeted ejection of complex parts: a single ejector is additionally accelerated by which snagging of the injection moulded part is avoided. The injection pressure is absorbed by the ejector base plate thus the ejection accelerator does not bear any load and has a longer service life. Due to the small component size a flexible positioning of the ejector accelerator in the ejector set is also possible when retrofitting.

With the new compact slide units Meusburger offers a slim slide option especially for small installation spaces. In addition to their size the ready-to-use versions also convince by their quality. High wear resistance and best sliding properties are possible through the DLC coated slides. Furthermore highest precision in the design and the production of the new slide units guarantee maximum process reliability in the injection moulding process.

The new HSS ejector pins and DLC coated blade ejector pins with extra long blade from Meusburger guarantee long life and minimal wear. The use of high-speed steel and diamond-like carbon coating results in longer maintenance intervals and reduced downtimes. The two high-quality ejectors are as usual with Meusburger, available from stock.

An innovative solution in the area of temperature regulation components assures more safety at work. Risk of scalding starts at a water temperature of 55°C, therefore an unintentional decoupling of the temperature regulation components can have fatal consequences. The new automatic safety hose coupler can prevent such accidents.

From 7th until 8th of June the wfb trade fair for die and mould making took place in Augsburg. Also this year, the standard parts manufacturer Meusburger was represented with a stand. In addition to the standard components, it presented current new products. An active exchange took place not only at the stand, but also in the newly introduced campfire sessions. For the first time, the wfb offered to the visitors the opportunity to exchange information about specialised topics in small discussion groups.

Despite the demanding market conditions, the company is successfully overcoming the challenges and continuing to invest in order to offer its customers the best service and the highest quality. This year, the standard parts manufacturer will continue to focus on further optimising its core competencies in the area of plates and components to expand its position as market leader. Last year, the company was already able to support its customers as a reliable supplier thanks to its central location in the heart of Europe and its extensive standard parts warehouse. In 2023, Meusburger generated a turnover of 327 million euros.

Tras un intenso periodo de preparación, por fin ha llegado el momento: el nuevo portal de Meusburger está ya en marcha y funciona en paralelo a la versión anterior. Con él, el fabricante de elementos normalizados ha llevado su mundo digital a un nuevo nivel para que sus clientes localicen lo que necesitan de la forma más rápida e intuitiva posible. Es accesible para cualquier grupo de usuarios, que puede manejarse en él con solo unos clics. Y eso no es todo, porque está en continuo desarrollo y en el futuro contará con aún más funciones. A continuación se resumen las ventajas que ya ofrece el nuevo portal de Meusburger.

After a turbulent year in 2022, Meusburger continues to be a reliable supplier in the mould and die making industry. Despite the challenges in the past year, the standard parts manufacturer has optimised existing processes and further advanced digitalisation. The company recorded a 16% growth in turnover, partly due to increased costs and resulting price increases.

2021 was complicated by both supply shortages and rising commodity prices, as well as limited customer visits due to the Covid situation. Despite these challenges, Meusburger was able to guarantee its customers continuous service and constant delivery availability. Thus, the standard parts manufacturer from Austria was able to achieve a turnover of 302 million euros thanks to the large warehouse and the high proportion of in-house production.

The industry continues to face significant bottlenecks along the entire supply chain. As a consequence, prices for both raw materials and commodities continue to rise, along with massive increases in energy, freight and transport costs. This creates uncertainty for many companies.

From the 12–16 October Meusburger was represented at Fakuma, the international trade fair for plastics processing in Friedrichshafen, Germany. The range for injection moulders as well as the standard and custom hot runner systems were in the spotlight. The visitors in hall A2 at stand 2313 and 2317 also got the first look at Meusburger’s brand new trade fair stand design. Another particular highlight at the stand was the Engel injection moulding machine, which visitors were able to watch live in action producing bread boxes.

The current sharp increase of raw material prices is causing uncertainty for many companies. The dramatic rise in costs is due to the increasing demand for steel which has resulted in a global steel shortage. This has caused not only supply bottlenecks but an extreme increase in prices. For example, the price for steel grade 1.1730 has doubled. From today’s perspective, it is unclear when the situation will ease again.

During 2020, Meusburger fully integrates the hot runner and control systems specialist PSG, which was taken over in 2016, into the company and will then operate under the Meusburger brand. PSG remains a strong product brand.

At this year’s Moulding Expo in Stuttgart (21–24 May), the Meusburger Group’s stand (hall 7, stand C17) will feature the brand new and one-of-a-kind configurator for hot runner moulds. In addition, the new cavity pressure sensors and many other Meusburger products will be presented. The companies PSG, WBI and Segoni will also offer a glimpse into their product range.

From the 16th to the 20th of October 2018, the Meusburger Group will be represented at the international trade fair for the processing of plastics in hall A2 at stand 2313 and 2317. With the motto ‘everything from a single source’, Meusburger, PSG, WBI and the youngest group member, Segoni will present new and tried and trusted products and services in the field of mould and die making.

Wolfurt/Austria. The internationally active Meusburger Group with headquarters in Wolfurt will be taking over Segoni. The Berlin software specialist will continue as an independent enterprise, and all employees will be retained. In the coming years, long-term investments will be made in the further development of the software. Alongside the knowledge-based management method WBI, customers of the Meusburger Group will also be supported in the area of ERP/PPS through the digitalisation process.

A new chapter of the cooperation of Meusburger and PSG in China began on September 1, 2017. As of the effective date Meusburger Mould and Die (Wuxi) Co. Ltd is legally an entity.

Meusburger offers you the right spring for every requirement - from very low to extremely high loads. The range also includes perfectly matched accessories for smooth installation of system and elastomer compression springs. All springs are available from stock at Meusburger.

From 16 –21 September EMO, the trade fair for metalworking, will open its doors in Hannover. Meusburger will be present again this year in Hall 5 at Stand E23. Visitors will be shown the extensive selection of materials as well as standard elements specially for jigs and fixtures construction.

Not all stress-relieving heat treatment is the same – because only a proper heat treatment process ensures the desired result in the end. That is why Meusburger has been using its own furnaces for almost 30 years. Meusburger stands for top-quality products – only flawless steel from the best-known steelworks can make it through the quality check. Standard parts that are heat-treated for stress relief are right at the beginning of the die and mould making process chain and form the basis of high-quality moulds and dies.

From 20-24 February the 20th International Exhibition for Metalworking Technologies will be held in Düsseldorf. Meusburger will also be represented this year in Hall 15 at Stand 15F69 and informing visitors about the competitive advantages of standardisation in machine and jig construction.

From September 18th to 23rd 2017, EMO, the trade fair for metalworking, opens its doors in Hannover. Meusburger will also be represented this year in Hall 5 at Stand E 24 and informing visitors about its wide range of products as well as the advantages of standardisation in machine and jig construction.

Since the introduction of the area of business 'Jigs and Fixtures' the standard parts manufacturer Meusburger has recorded a steady growth in customer clientèle who build on the quality and the reliability of immediately available standard components. The trend towards standardisation is taking more and more hold in machine and jig construction. A logical development, considering that increasingly shorter project lead times and efficiency improvements are required in order to survive on the international market with the progressing globalisation.
