Ancillary equipment: a preview of what's new
Piovan's exhibition stand at Interplas 2014 will be displaying a “full array” of product innovations and new technologies for a wide range of processes.
Firstly, the company will introduce visitors to its new filterless vacuum receivers, called PureFlo, which it says are designed for all those applications where cleanliness and maintenance are key factors for the consistency of the process.
A new range of gravimetric blenders, Quantum, which are said to help improve the quality performance of production lines and “redefines technical standards and market applications” will be on show, said to deliver outstanding features of flexibility, precision, safety and efficiency.
Lybra dosing units, in the latest configuration, are designed to dose masterbatch, additives and recycled material and are suitable for all types of applications.
As for supervising the system, Piovan has introduced a new feature in its ‘Winfactory’ supervision system designed to monitor energy consumption. The ‘Energy Consumption Monitor’ measures the effective energy use, both of individual machines and specific manufacturing cells or cooling systems, in real-time, providing reports and graphs, which show the actual energy consumption.
In addition, Piovan says new developments in mould temperature control and innovations in refrigeration will also be presented at the UK's largest plastics industry exhibition.
