The use of energy-saving machines and energy saving systems is still in the injection moulder's focus. And this makes it all the more important for the machine manufacturer to face these challenges and offer innovative and sustainable energy-efficient solutions for injection moulders. With a motto of "Driving you eco" Engel is exhibiting at Fakuma 2009 in Friedrichshafen from 13th to 17th October.
Moretto, one of the world’s leading manufacturers of automation equipment for the processing of plastics, introduces X Technology, highly energy-efficient comprehensive drying, dosing and other relevant systems for the manufacture of bottles and containers for liquids in the beverage, food, cosmetic and other industries and using PET.
It is very important for the film converter that the processing operation is smooth, efficient and trouble-free. High output is a must, the bubble must not burst and cause production delay, and the thickness profile of the film should be stable. The downgauging flexibility of the film is important for cost reduction, as is the flexibility to use both mono and coextrusion processes.
Borealis’ proprietary Borstar technology is built on process and catalyst technology development and is a focal point of the company’s innovation programme. The company uses this technology to design molecular structured materials to meet customers’ specific needs. Borstar PE and PP capacity expansion in both Europe and the Middle East is a core ingredient of the company’s strategy.
ILLIG will present their latest line systems for sheet processing at the upcoming Fakuma, Friedrichshafen, October 13 to 17, 2009. These lines are suitable for manufacturing products for various applications in electrical engineering, electronics, automobile and vehicle construction, general industrial applications through to household, leisure and sports articles.
At Plast’09, an exhibition that took place in Milan at the end of March, Moretto S.p.A. launched latest developments in its products range. The company, global leader in the production of automation for the processing of plastics, has introduced innovative solutions and cutting-edge technologies.
Precisely dosed for high quality fleece fabric Process-stabilised dosing of all components directly during the manufacturing process – that is one of Mann+Hummel ProTec’s core competencies. The fleece manufacturer RKW Gronau relies on exactly this competence in its new nonwoven fabric plant. The SOMOS Gramix S9 gravimetric dosing and mixing system, designed for up to nine formula components, is integrated in the plant.
Leading Italian auxiliary equipment supplier Moretto is bringing innovations and cutting-edge technologies to Plast’09, this year’s most important European-wide plastics and rubber exhibition.
Pioneered in Wales in the 1970s, in-mould labelling (IML) was originally developed for the medical and pharmaceutical industries to avoid instruction labels peeling off. IML is the process whereby a label is inserted into the mould before the injection moulding takes place; the label then becomes an integral part of the final product.
There’s a lot in favour of automated injection moulding: increased performance – greater flexibility – constant process stability – higher output of parts without loss of quality – integration of several functions in one operation. But which type of robot is the better choice – a linear robot or an industrial robot?
Meech’s web cleaner improves quality and saves money in plastic bag manufacture.
A drastic change has taken place in tool and mold making. In practically no other area are the traces of globalization as obvious as in this branch of industry.
