Weekly Timer KraussMaffei's new function for its MC6 injection molding control system is able to accurately determine the amount of time necessary for preheating, which allows machine operators to precisely set the start of production. Weekly Timer is integrated by default into the MC6 control, which is used for all of the company's injection molding machines. The new feature also adapts to changing ambient temperatures or the installation of new plasticizing units.
