New Advertising Campaign “Art in Color Dosing”
Moretto presents the new advertising campaign “Art in color dosing” dedicated to DPK gravimetric loss-inweight doser, recently launched on the market. DPK completes the full range of Moretto’s dosers and solves the overdosing problemwith a very precise control.
Friul Filiere: A new downstream to celebrate its 40th anniversary
This year Friul Filiere is celebrating its 40thanniversary and FAKUMA 2018 will be a great opportunity to celebrate its 40th anniversary showing the latest technological developments, first of all among them, the brand new downstream Futura40.
Getecha: Innovative granulators - Individualisation is the key
The hopper of the GRS 180 (type A 00246) at the Fakuma stand of Getecha is also equipped with this flexible gateway function. Here, loading can be performed for example with a sprue picker from the portfolio of Getecha. The feeding process including the gateway function is regulated by a higher control in this case.
FEDDEM: More than just extruders
The FEDDEMs FED 26 MTS extruder is particularly well suited for product developments and as a pilot plant in production. The 34 kWmotor iswater-cooled and has a torque limiting clutch and hightorque transmission that ensure top performance. With a base length of 42 L/D and a 10 L/D module to extend the processing length to 52 L/D, this extruder can also be used for products requiring a longer dwell time.
Flow Dynamics of Extrusion Tooling
Medical tubing and jacketed products must be produced to confirm to very tight tolerances, often wall thickness(es) and diameter(s) being inspected to tolerances lower than 0.0004”/.01mm.
An interview with Philipp G. Weber, Hch. Kündig & Cie. AG: “We want to make sure it’s our customers that come back to us and not our products.”
Mr. Weber, Managing Director and current owner of Hch. Kündig & Cie. AG “The company constantly expanding our product range… One example is the K-500 contact capacitive film thickness gauge with extremely low-wear sintered ceramic surfaces. When combined with our patented rotational scanner, the Rotomat KT, a transversal thickness profile can be measured within 36 seconds, without any losses in the measuring accuracy.
