Otto Systems' commitment

Last but not least, Otto Hofstetter AG, the renowned Swiss mould manufacturer, stands behind the Otto Systems consultants.

Your advantages with Otto Systems

Tailor-made to your needs

The needs and benefits of the customer are at the heart of our philosophy. To meet this requirement, we at Otto Systems have developed a unique system concept based on four pillars.

advantage: Smart modularity

Otto Systems’ modular design approach keeps costs down and consists of time-tested, proven components. We carefully fine-tune the clamping and the injection unit, as well as the take-out robot to match the customer’s specific needs. And our systems accept a wide range of preform moulds. This is how we understand modularity.

advantage: Fully integrated

At Otto Systems we know that even the best tools need to be carefully controlled. That’s why we control and monitor the machine, take-out robot, post-mould cooling and peripheral devices centrally via a large, intuitive control panel. This is how we understand integration.

advantage: Proven standards

Otto Systems applies one standard to all the technology and components it employs: absolute reliability that has proven itself thousands of times over. Our solutions are reliable, durable and safe – from the electronic clamping and plasticising unit throughout the injection. This is how we understand standardisation.

advantage: Maximum flexibility

Otto Systems’ turnkey PET systems meet customers’ needs and also accommodate their preferences when it comes to peripherals. Our modular designs use a set of standardised components, but we can integrate a wide range of peripheral components, too, if desired. This is how we understand flexibility.

Our promise

Consistent focus on special applications

As the operator of a PET production system, you need to be certain that you are working with the most economical solution. At Otto Systems, we pursue this goal without compromise. And that is why we focus on special applications, outside the mass market.
