From as early as the beginning of the 1960s ARBURG played a significant role in shaping the development of multi component/ multi-colour processing. At this time, there was a demand for robust parts made from two components, which could also be produced efficiently. The first prototype – a typewriter key with the company logo – was produced in 1961 using automated multi-colour processing. In 1963 ARBURG premiered its first two-colour machine.
The technology for producing two-component moulded parts has remained the same since its early days. Improvements, however, have permitted the production of high-quality parts in large production runs and also the use of three or even four injection units for the automatic production of parts in a single operation.
