Interview to Antonio Muñoz, commercial director of the Area of Injection of Coscollola Commercial, S.L.
19 June 2012
Directly and without any preamble, for his customers the low energetic consumption that can have an inyectora is a decisive argument so that they buy or no this machine?
Nowadays with the pressesure of existent costs can not deny that that is a demand of the customers. To be more exact can affirm that it has turned into an important point although no determinante in the election of a mark or type of machine.
It is truly so important the consumption of power? It can have a lot of difference between the consumptions of a machine and the ones of another?
Really the consumption of power is an important part, no the fundamental, but wins weight day in day out. Regarding differences of energetic consumption between a machine or another is evident that can have them, but in my opinion the criteria of election in the moment to decide the purchase of a machine have to base above all else in technical analyses of the process of injection.
Machines totally electrical, hybrid or hydraulics. Each one has his advantages and inconvenient, but the electrical are beginning to have more presence. It is the subject of the consumptions the main reason or are strengthening little by little by other reasons?
Sincerely, from Coscollola think that the electrical machines are strengthening porcentualmente more by reasons of precision in the process that by his reduction in the electrical consumption.
According to his opinion, the importance that gives him to the energetic saving, is more related with the economy (reduction of costs) or with the ecology (take care the surroundings)?
The question of the reduction of costs is at present much more notable that the ecological subject, since the first appearance has an economic incidence more immediate.
Nevertheless, it is necessary recalcar, that in Coscollola have customers, mainly multinationals, that value the absence of the oil in his machines like an important ecological contribution of scheme them electrical.
They have in Coscollola relative studies to the electrical consumptions and his incidence in the cost of production of the customers?. It is usual this conversation with the customers?
Yes, have of wide studies and comparative reports of productivity between the different types of inyectoras: electrical, hybrid or hydraulics. Said reports indicate that the process incide of form very elevated in the correct election of the machine. It is logical, therefore, that the process of production that uses the customer was the point of initial conversation between him and we, to establish the ideal parameters for a correct election of the team of injection.
Where it is the secret so that a machine consummates less power? In the accionamientos?
The accionamientos inciden in the consumption but no significantly. It serve the following example to illustrate it: In a fast cycle, in which there are not dead times, there are not savings and the consumption of a hydraulics is equal to the of an electrical, but the electrical has a cost 50% upper.
In which type of applications influences more the consumption of power on the total costs? In big pieces, pieces of fast cycle...
The energetic consumption reveals really significant in big machines and with slow cycles and never in fast cycles.
Krauss Maffei, one of the marks represented by Coscollola, does special upsetting in the energetic saving? They have machines thought on purpose to consume less power?
Do upsetting in the consumption and energetic saving, this if, always associating it to the processes that apply our customers.
Krauss Maffei Produces two types of machine entirely electrical: the model AX with traction by belts and refrigeradas by air which has an industrial application and the EX model with direct traction and refrigeradas by water without belts which has some medical applications in short cycles.
Also produce the package of measures Blue Power that it can install in all our hydraulics series CX, GX and MX and from 35 until 5.400 tonnes of strength of closing and for all type of applications.
