Wittmann Battenfeld demonstrates its technology in their Competence Days
September 3, 2008
The presentations given by experts provided an overview of the latest technologies of Battenfeld and briefed the visitors on processes such as injection by gas and water the Airmould or Aquamould, the technology multicomponent Combimould and the Cellmould structured foam technology. Presentation on the importance of for the restraint of molds in the moulding process showed the capacity of wittmann battenfeld injection industry.
The series of presentations ended with a study of Müller-Technik GmbH (Steinfeld, Germany), a client of Wittmann Battenfeld from for a long time.
Helmut Kohake and Manuela Sieverding talked about "Competitiveness with the injection fluid and multi-component technology", from a practical point of view for the moldista.
Ten machines with forces of closure between 35 and 650 tons showed the innovation of the machinery and the technological processes of Wittmann Battenfeld. Equipment hydraulic series, the modular series of closure to knee and the totally electric was demonstrated.
Products that were manufactured in production lines arranged for demonstrations included standard components for the automotive, medical, packaging, appliances, construction and the toy industry.
Combimould multicomponent technology was demonstrated in a 180 HM / 350 H / 350 H and a 300/1330H/1000H HM. This exhibition showed a production of a mouthpiece for PP/PE for silicone cartridge and a conduit of PA/PP reinforced with glass fibre. Gas injection technology is used in this example.
HM 110/350 with equipment Airmould successfully demonstrated the production of a handle. Injection of water Aquamould technology was presented in a HM 240/1000 to manufacture a component for the adjustment of a seat. This solution will replace the piece of metal used previously. The Cellmould process was shown to visitors in a HM 150/525. This exhibition demonstrated the production of a cover of PA.
Both in a minor (Plus 35) machines and in a major (HM 650/5100) hydraulic series, as they were the production of whistles of PSPS and transportation PP. boxes
To represent the series fully electric, a 110/300 Ms with a special liquid silicone equipment showed the production of an LSR FX ring to a dialysis machine.
Following the principle "everything for a process of injection" from a single source, the Wittmann Kunststoffgeräte company took the opportunity to showcase their wide range of peripheral equipment and automation.
Different collaborating companies specialized in materials, technology of hot channels and manufacturing of molds and some institutes of research on plastic participated in the event with their stands.
"We are very pleased with the number of guests who have attended our facilities." "Together with Wittmann, we are now the sole supplier of systems around the world capable of providing with turn-key solutions in hand from a single source to the injection industry and this event has been our first opportunity to prove it", said Georg Tinschert, Wittmann Battenfeld Management Director.
