PowerStation: High-Performance Manufacturing in Seconds with Maximum Productivity

The LWB VALUE PowerStation offers companies a cutting-edge solution for elastomer production, delivering peak efficiency, flexibility, and competitiveness—even for complex demands and high production volumes. It revolutionizes elastomer processing. By decoupling processes and maximizing parallel operations, it enables plastic processors to achieve cycle times measured in seconds while maintaining high quality and energy efficiency.

Key Benefits for Plastic Processors at a Glance:
- Maximum Productivity: Synchronized, independent process zones ensure second-level production cycles.
- Consistent Utilization: Parallel operation of all stations minimizes downtime, even with varying cycle requirements.
- Low Unit Costs: Highly economical production, especially with multi-cavity molds and series manufacturing.
- Unmatched Flexibility: Simultaneous use of different tools and materials without downtime for retooling.
- Reduced Workforce Needs: High automation, up to autonomous production cells, cuts labor requirements.
- Reliable Processes: Adaptive process control guarantees consistent quality, even with changing products.
- Energy Efficiency: Optimized heating and injection processes significantly lower energy consumption.
- Smart Production: Real-time data, OPC-UA connectivity, and seamless MES/ERP integration future-proof operations.
- Scalable and Future-Ready: Modular design supports gradual expansion from pilot projects to high-performance lines.

The intelligent manufacturing solutions LWB VALUE MultiStation and LWB VALUE PowerStation enhance and streamline injection molding cycles through automated, decoupled, and parallelized processes. These innovations boost customer productivity, reduce scrap rates, and significantly cut energy consumption.
