The K 2025 International Plastics and Rubber Exhibition, the largest and most influential event in the global plastics and rubber industry, will be held in...October 8 to 15, 2025The grand event was held in Düsseldorf, Germany. This exhibition takes place every three years, bringing together professionals from global industries such as manufacturing, processing, machinery, automotive, electronics, medical, packaging, and construction to jointly explore the future directions of material innovation, intelligent manufacturing, and sustainable transformation.
FCS Group will showcase under the theme of "Smart Manufacturing × Sustainable Practice."Hall12 / B80A variety of fully electric molding machines are exhibited, integrating recycled materials, micro-foaming technology, and intelligent factory systems to showcase green molding solutions covering single-color and two-color, precision and energy-saving, and multi-material applications, comprehensively addressing the global market's demand for high efficiency, low carbon, and intelligentization.

CT-230R | Dual-color synchronization × High-speed stability
CT-230R is aAll-electric two-color injection molding machineEquipped with a high-precision rotary table and two independent injection units, it is especially suitable for advanced multi-material or multi-color applications, such as automotive interiors, power tools, and medical devices.
The exhibition site will demonstrate the process of producing two-color household products, utilizing PP and TPE materials to achieve high-efficiency dual-material simultaneous molding within a single mold cavity through an overmolding process. Technical highlights include:
Rotary table positioning accuracy of ±0.005°.
Servo drive rotation speed increased by 30-50%, effectively shortening the molding cycle.
Linear rail ejection unit, precisely controlling back pressure and reducing the risk of material overflow.
High repeatability and stable forming capability, suitable for mass production of complex high-value parts.
In addition, the CT-230R is paired with FCS's independently developed...iMF 4.0 Intelligent Manufacturing SystemIt can achieve production monitoring, energy consumption tracking, predictive maintenance, and remote diagnostics, assisting users in improving overall equipment efficiency and quality consistency.

MuCell® × GENTREX Microcellular Foaming System
FCS will also introduce two major micro-foaming technology platforms this time to support users in creating process layouts that emphasize both carbon reduction and weight reduction.
MuCell® Microcellular Foam Technology: In collaboration with TREXEL in the United States, this process utilizes supercritical gas injection to significantly reduce product weight and material usage, lower injection pressure, and enhance structural stability. Applications span footwear materials, 3C products, packaging, and automotive fields.

GENTREX Micro-Foaming System: Co-developed by FCS and TK TianGang Machinery, specifically designed for thermoplastic elastomers (TPE). It offers a solution that combines high elasticity and carbon reduction for products requiring high cushioning and comfort functions, such as shoe midsoles, bicycle parts, and motorcycle components.

iMF4.0 Intelligent Platform: From Real-Time Monitoring to ESG Practice
iMF 4.0 Intelligent Injection Management SystemFCS is a core platform specifically designed for smart factories. It can integrate all key parameters and energy consumption information throughout the injection molding cycle, and provides the following functions:
Real-time monitoring of injection pressure, cycle, energy consumption, and raw material usage.
Predictive maintenance alerts to reduce unexpected downtime
Multi-device cloud dashboard supports remote management and cross-shift monitoring
Generate carbon footprint and energy-saving reports to assist companies in enhancing ESG information transparency.
iMF 4.0 is not just a management tool, but also the core engine driving the simultaneous transformation of "intelligence × sustainability."
Intelligent Manufacturing × Sustainable Practices
In the global wave towards net-zero carbon emissions, FCS actively promotes smart manufacturing and sustainable practices. Through the iMF 4.0 intelligent injection management system, which integrates sensing data, AI analysis, and cloud monitoring, it comprehensively enhances energy efficiency, reduces carbon emissions, and achieves predictive maintenance.
Combining MuCell® microcellular foam technology can effectively reduce material usage and energy consumption while maintaining product strength and lightweight structure, achieving true sustainable molding. The proactive application of recycled plastics further demonstrates FCS's commitment to ESG, collaborating with material suppliers and brands to establish a circular economy co-creation mechanism and jointly build a low-carbon future.
