Alba Enterprises/Babyplast

Booth 4069, 4071

The Babyplast table top injection moulding machine is the smallest, fully hydraulic, injection moulding machine. Thanks to the unique concept of the machine platens which act as mould bolsters, the cost and dimensions of the moulds are reduced considerably. Babyplast 6/10 needs less than 1/2yd of floor space. Babyplast is perfect for production of small precision parts, long and short production runs, laboratory tests, prototyping, medical products, and technical training. Available horizontal or vertical. Also available is the autonomous injection unit offering an economical and practical solution for transforming an existing single component machine into a multi-component machine.


Asaclean - Sun Plastech Inc.

Booth 4027

Asaclean Purging Compound for thermoplastic injection molding and extrusion applications quickly and efficiently purges machinery to maintain peak performance. Asaclean provides fast color/material changes, deposit removal, and hot runner cleaning. It aids in preventing contamination buildup when used as a sealing agent during machine shutdown. The results are minimized downtime and improved production, thus reducing cost and resin waste.

Asaclean comes in six different grades to purge both commodity and engineering resins between 320F to 735F.
Please come and visit our booth for a live demonstration of Asaclean.




Conair

Booth 3939

A new, servo-driven puller/cutter from Conair is perfect for small-diameter medical tubing, including heart and brain catheters. The ‘MedLine’ puller/cutter has been designed for the highest level of precision possible, along with rugged reliability and user-friendly operation. Control features simplify the production of such tubing features as tapers and bubbles. The heart of the machine, and the key to its precision operation is the puller. With independent position-controlled servo drives on the upper and lower belts, along with in-line planetary gear reducers, Conair has been able to all but eliminate speed variation in the puller.

ENGEL North America

Web: http://www.engelglobal.com/na

Booth 3715

ENGEL’s liquid silicone micro molding system offers the precision of an electric injection unit combined with the flexibility of a tiebarless clamp design. A micro shot size, less than ½ gram, is being molded on an ENGEL e-victory hybrid machine using a 12mm screw and check disc assembly specially-designed for LSR, guaranteeing the repeatability required in micro molding applications.
The machine, with a specially engineered platen which provide the flexibility to run small to large mold bases, has the capability to mold shot sizes up to 50cc with a simple barrel and screw changeover, allowing full utilization of the machine.


Extreme Coatings/Surface Engineering

Booth 4044

Extreme Coatings™ Cushion Master© solid carbide check ring and seat are designed to compliment the wear resistance of a feed screw encapsulated with our tungsten carbide coatings. Tip components are commonly replaced two to three times during the life of a standard feed screw. Cushion Master© components provide toughness, corrosion, and wear resistance that can reduce this replacement ratio to 1:1, eliminating downtime and inefficiency caused by worn components. In very abrasive processes, Cushion Master © will provide four to six times longer life. Cushion Master © is every molder’s aim, the last non-return valve you will ever purchase.


Gneuss Inc.

Booth 4175

Gnueuss has recently expanded their Measurment Technology line of products for measurement and monitoring of melt pressure, temperature, and viscosity. Recently introduced is the new non-mercury Gneuss NTX series of melt pressure transducers, incorporating premium performance and longer life, compared to existing mercury, Nak (sodium potassium) and other alternative-fill material sensors.
Interchangeable with competitive brands, the Gneuss NTX series of premium melt pressure transducers and transmitters offer hi-accuracy, robust designe for challenging enviroments, and also considered favorable in unit cost comparisons.
Gneuss committed several years of development of NTX to provide an industry solution for non-mercury melt pressure instrumentation offering equal or superior mechanical advantages of mercury, without the hazards these devices impose on humans and the environment.


INCOE Corp.

Booth 3845

INCOE®'s "DF" Gold Series hot runner systems feature a wide range of improvements including twin heater reliability, expanded gating options and color seal technology. The next generation, MICROCOM® temperature controller will be displayed featuring several new design advances for added ease of use, integrated system protection technologies and optimized hot runner performance.

New MICROCOM® feature highlights include:


- Patented voltage correction technology eliminates damaging fluctuations in power for continual processing

JSW Plastics Machinery Inc.

Booth 3806

JSW Plastics Machinery Inc. offers all-electric injection molding machines from 40 tn to 2750 tn. See the latest technology in the company's AD series injection molding machines with wider tie bar openings, faster clamp, fastest processor speed, low-maintenance features, and easy-to-operate controls. All electric vertical clamp machines are available with rotary or shuttle table.


Kistler Instrument Corp.

Booth 3870

Kistler will demonstrate CoMo Injection process monitor for zero defect injection molding. Operating independently without a PC, withs outputs for good part/bad part control signals and network data via the ethernet, effectively instruments molders. Vizualization for up to 8 channels with optional display enables precise set up, production run details and data rentention via the network. Easily configured, process details are set only once including product and batch definitions. Optional DataFlow software enables detailed depictions of processing including cavity pressure over time. Certified run documentation can be provided to satisfy customer requirements. Piezoelectric sensors and system sensor electronics are also featured.


Motan Inc.

Booth 3838

Motan’s TWINcut beside the press granulator is ideal for granulating conventional plastics including glass filled materials as well as soft thermo plastic elastomers (TPE) and similar materials.

The TWINcut utilizes a two-shaft, patented cutter design:

First stage - pulls sprue/part into the cutting chamber producing a medium sized particle

Second stage - reduces the particle size further resulting in a consistent, dust free chip

This technology allows material to be cut consistently so that it can be easily reprocessed through the molding machine. No screen allows for less maintenance which translates into lower labor costs.


Pricefitters

Booth 3849

The Instalok coupling installs in half the time of and costs twenty percent less than its predecessor, the compression coupling. Its unique patented design allows for twice the end pull strength of standard couplings, a superior seal to guard against pressure leaks and moisture creep, and eliminates contamination problems.

RJG Inc.

Booth 3854

RJG introduces the eDARTflx™ system for molders looking for an affordable; entry level system that provides automated part containment. The eDARTflx gives users the ability to view in-cavity behavior such as pressure and temperature, in order to detect short shots before the mold opens. Data collected from the eDARTflx allows processors to set alarm bands to catch short shots and contain them. The software can be set to control the timing of conveyors, flippers or robots, eliminating the need to manually sort each part. The eDARTflx will be sold for under $5,000 making it the most affordable system on the market today.
