Eastern Europe - and Poland in particular - is a key plastics processing hub, which is why WITTMAN BATTENFELD intends to make its exhibition at the region's flagship plastics event a showcase of cutting-edge energy-efficient systems.
WITTMANN BATTENFELD will exhibit its new servo-hydraulic SmartPower in addition to a machine from its all-electric EcoPower series. As well as offering attractive, user-friendly design, both machines stand out due to their extremely high-energy efficiency.

SmartPower 60/120
The SmartPower is the youngest member of the PowerSeries of WITTMANN BATTENFELD. In a smart way, it combines the advantages of hydraulic machines with those of all-electric machines: energy efficiency, precision, user-friendliness, compact design, high speed, cleanness. The machine is equipped with a new, highly energy-efficient servo-hydraulic drive system as standard, which also recommends itself by small dimensions and a low sound level. Moreover, the servo-hydraulic SmartPower comes with the same amplifier system as the all-electric EcoPower. This drive technology makes it possible to use the KERS (Kinetic Energy Recovery
System) developed for the EcoPower in the SmartPower as well. KERS transforms the kinetic energy released by deceleration into electrical energy.
The SmartPower is available for delivery in sizes ranging from 25 to 120 tonnes in clamping force.
At Plastpol, the functionality of this new machine generation will be demonstrated by a SmartPower 60/210 equipped with a mould supplied by Greiner Packaging, Austria, producing a technical component from polyamide. A WS80 servo sprue picker from WITTMANN, also a novelty, will remove the sprue.
The second exhibit will be an EcoPower 180/750, making a decorative container from PP with a single-cavity mould supplied by Lamela, Poland.
The EcoPower offers ultimate performance in terms of precision and energy efficiency. It has emerged from many tests as the “Best in Class”. Its open design also allows for easy operation and provides free space for parts removal.
Moreover, there will also be an opportunity at the Plastpol to test the new WiBa QuickLook app live. With the help of this app, it is possible to check the status of injection moulding machines and robots simply and comfortably with a Smartphone. The new app links up with the most recent software versions of WITTMANN R8.3 robots and WITTMANN BATTENFELD Unilog B6P control systems. In this way, WiBa QuickLook enables quick and easy viewing of the process data and the status of the most important appliances operating in a production cell.
