The European plan to introduce labeling on injection mould machines which gives a rating for their energy consumption has completed the first stages. Before the European machine makers launch the labeling system, it will take at least one year. This project was started in 2011 by Euromap, the European association representing plastics and rubber machinery manufacturers. It forms part of the plastics industry’s response to the European Commission’s Energy Related Products directive, which seeks to reduce the energy consumption of industrial machinery by 20 percent by 2020. Once this project finished, it will be a great innovation among the injection mould machines makers such as plastic seals machine maker.
The project has worked on developing a standard approach to measurement of energy consumption in injection molding machines which especially in plastic products maker of plastic seals, toys, chairs etc.. VDMA, the German machinery association, at a forum on its Blue Competence energy efficiency program which it held last week during the Fakuma 2012 exhibition in Friedrichshafen, announces that this work has now finished. But before the labeling system is launched, machinery makers has being given time to improve the energy consumption of their product ranges so that they achieve an A rating when they launch.
Karlheinz Bourdon , the vice president of technologies at KraussMaffei who is responsible for this project said: “Everybody is being given the chance to get into the best classification.” After the forum, report from European Plastics News, he said there is no fixed timetable, but everyone hopes an announcement on the labeling system can be made by the time of the K2013 exhibition when takes place in October next year. Bourdon said he expects non-European manufacturers of injection molding machines also take up the energy labeling system after it has been launched. Other Euromap initiatives have been adopted around the world, he said. Believe this project will be finished soon successfully. So that the injection mould machines industry will have a huge improve in plastic seals and plastic toys lines and so on. |
