With Weekly Timer,
the machine operators can precisely set the desired start of production of the injection molding machine.

The Weekly Timer knows exactly when the oil preheating, the barrel heating and the mold heating have to be started so that everything is ready at the start of production. This can be configured separately for each day of the week.

Does the temperature fluctuate due to weather conditions or a newly installed plasticizing unit? No problem—the Weekly Timer takes these into account and compensates for them. This eliminates machine waiting times.
