Fibrax, a global injection moulding manufacturing group has invested in two Engel Victory machines with tie-bar-less technology, to increase the company’s plastic moulding capacity at its facility in Wrexham, North Wales.
The modular Engel Victory is ideal for a wide range of technical plastic mouldings and with its tie-bar-less technology, it provides flexibility and greater efficiency.
The group says this investment is part of its strategic growth strategy and 2018 will see the installation of more advanced technical equipment aimed at streamlining manufacturing processes, implementing efficiencies and optimising performance.
