In the new technical center in Guntramsdorf, in addition to the SmartPower 120/350 molding machine, there is a ATON plus dryer and a TEMPRO plus D model dual-zone temperature controller, also from Wittmann Battenfeld. The dryer and temperature controller are integrated in the Unilog B8 machine control system.
In a release, Hasco said that the new technical center will speed up product development and enable new hot runner technology research.
