Chop & mix natural fibers inside the mixhead.The LFI LFI Local File Inclusion LFI Link Fragmentation and Interleaving (Cisco) LFI Landesforstinventar (National Forest Inventory, Switzerland) LFI Lethal Force Institute LFI Last File Indicator (Long Fiber Injection) process for pouring glass-reinforced PUR composites has been adapted recently for natural-fiber injection (NFI NFI Nasjonal Forskningsinformasjon (Norwegian Research Database) NFI National Fisheries Institute NFI National Fatherhood Initiative NFI National Forest Inventory (Australia) NFI Nutrition Foundation of India ). Both processes chop and wet out the fibers tight in the mixhead. The system, available from Krauss-Maffei Corp., Florence, Ky., reportedly allows easy switching from glass to flax flax, common name for members of the Linaceae, a family of annual herbs, especially members of the genus Linum, and for the fiber obtained from such plants. The flax of commerce (several varieties of L. , hemp hemp, common name for a tall annual herb (Cannabis sativa) of the family Cannabinaceae, native to Asia but now widespread because of its formerly large-scale cultivation for the bast fiber (also called hemp) and for the drugs it yields. , or sisal fibers. A new cutter specialized for natural fibers uses two intermeshing gear wheels to propel the fibers and cut them to lengths of 5 to 20 mm. Two models of high-pressure mixheads put out 80 to 500 g/sec of PUR and up to 80 g/sec of natural fiber. Fiber content can be as high as 40%. Tel: (606) 283-0200 * PTDirect: 385BX |
