    Abstract

    Produced jointly, ready to fill and already decorated in a single step and on a single machine. That is the impressive result of an all-electric injection molding manufacturing cell with cube mold technology, which more than halves the unit costs and logistics overheads. The new process also reduces material and energy consumption compared to conventional tube production.
