The foundation of Engel Used Machinery sees injection moulding machine manufacturer and systems solutions provider Engel extend its portfolio to include pre-owned machines.
With Engel as their full-service provider, customers benefit from comprehensive advice from a single source.
Besides injection moulding machines, the new company also buys back used robots from the Engel series, refurbishes the products and puts them back on the market.
“In some cases, a second-hand production cell is the only option,” said Engel Group CSO Christoph Steger.
“We want to offer our customers a high-quality solution for this requirement, too.”
Repurchased injection moulding machines and robots are reconditioned in-house at Engel’s production plants in Austria and the Czech Republic, where the newly founded company is headquartered.
“Eastern Europe is the largest and fastest growing market for pre-owned injection moulding machines”, said Leopold Praher, General Manager of Engel Used Machinery.
