Pelletron system eliminated streamers were gone and cut the dust level down to a range of 30 to 50 ppm.
Auxiliary equipment takes in a broad range of functions, from materials preparation to post-mold finishing.
There will be an extraordinary range of new auxiliary equipment on display at the show.
Angel hairs wreak havoc on plastics processing: clogging filters, plugging conveying lines, causing feed problems at the blender, and jamming up machine throats. Here's how to prevent their formation.
For high-volume pneumatic conveying in plastics resin and compounding plants, the standard today is dense-phase conveying, whereby the resin moves in “plugs” with low velocity and high pressure.
From materials drying, feeding, and blending to process heating/cooling, scrap reclaiming, testing, welding, and decorating—the K 2010 show this month in Dusseldorf, Germany, will have news in all categories of auxiliary equipment.
Visitors to the recent NPE 2009 show in Chicago were looking for materials handling equipment that could do more than dry, blend, or convey resins. It had to do those things while saving energy, providing faster and easier maintenance, speeding product changeovers, reducing labor cost, minimizing waste, and providing better value for money. The new products cited below addressed those needs and more.
A compact dedusting unit for resin pellets and regrind is suited to spaces with restricted clearances.
Two new rotary valves with patented anti-shearing device and double lip seals were introduced for conveying pellets and granules by Pelletron Corp., Lancaster, Pa.
Five exhibitors at the recent NPE show in Chicago brought out devices for dust control in materials handling: The newest version of DeDuster technology from Pelletron Corp., Lancaster, Pa., is the XP Series (photo), which is more economical, more energy efficient, and half the height of previous models but has twice the cleaning area for higher throughput.
NPE 2006 held no revolutionary changes in dryers, blenders, feeders, loaders, or conveying controls, but widely adopted improvements make the newest models easier to use and maintain—and easier on the budget, too.
Dryers, feeders, blenders, loaders, metal detectors, level sensors, mechanical and pneumatic conveyors, silos, bins, pumps, filters, valves, box fillers, bag dumpers, and materials-handling control systems constitute one of the biggest categories of products on display at NPE.
Flow-Enhancer’s unique design features allow easy retrofit into existing systems, or saves the stepping of pipes in new systems.
Pelletron DeDusters save time and increase profitability by removing unwanted, costly dust from your product.
Pelletron offers a full range of components including Rotary Valves, Diverter Valves, Pellbows™, special Dust Collectors and Accessories.
Pelletron's dust prevention solutions are designed to increase the life-span of your elbows and reduce maintenance costs.
It's a common problem that goes by a lot of names: dust, fines, streamers, angel hair.
Custom injection molder Tessy Plastics, Elbridge, N.Y., used to spend around $117,000 every year on resins that it would not use.
