Rubber injection machine

A 2,000 metric ton horizontal machine for rubber molding has been manufactured by the company. The machine is for the molding of large dimensions, weighing between 2530 kg each. This machine is equipped with a screw and piston injection unit and a toggle To alternate back and forth between two states.

toggle - To change a bit from whatever state it is in to the other state; to change from 1 to 0 or from 0 to 1. This comes from "toggle switches", such as standard light switches, though the word "toggle" actually refers to
 unit. The Compact hydro-mechanic toggle unit features platens of higher thickness compared with traditional toggle systems. The company's machine has a mold force on the moving and fixed platen, where the clamping unit is without the reaction plate indispensable on conventional machines. This characteristic is said to allow a machine with particularly reduced and compact dimensions, notwithstanding its large size. Due to the possibility of removing the moving platen from the tie-bars, lateral access can be achieved instead of from the top, for the assembly and disassembly dis·as·sem·ble

Size reduction equipment

The Vulcanator features a novel low friction cutter design which is said to quickly reduce whole bales of robber into small bits without heat rise. Rugged rotary knives pull the material into the cutting area and disintegrate the slabs to a size fine enough to pass through a special sizing screen. The reduced particles are then expelled from the bottom of the unit. The Vulcanator is built for heavy duty operation. The housing is constructed of heavy steel plate. A high level of precision is incorporated into every component. Access doors are provided for easy maintenance. An auxiliary fly wheel helps this unit rip through even the toughest bales, according to according to

Horizontal rubber injection

The company has completely re-engineered its ES440-ton horizontal Elast robber injection molding machine Injection molding machine (also known as injection press) - a machine for making plastic parts. Manufacturing products by injection molding process. Consist of two main parts, an injection unit and a clamping unit. . Said to be one of the most compact 440-ton machines on the market, its small footprint frees up more shopfloor space and improves molding economics, according to the company. Improved rubber feeding is said to make handling of the feedstock simpler, because automatic robber strip feeding allows material to be fed into the injection unit from a pallet below the unit, or from a box via guide rollers. Modified guarding all around the machine allows for easy maintenance, according to the manufacturer. Key features of the ES440H Elast rubber injection molding machine include first-in, first-out first-in, first-out

Materials handling Materials handling

The loading, moving, and unloading of materials. The hundreds of different ways of handling materials are generally classified according to the type of equipment used.
 

The Multi-Router provides automatic switching of flowpaths for multiple pneumatic conveying systems used in the handling of plastic pellets and other bulk solids. This patented system eliminates several problems associated with hose switch stations, the conventional method of switching flowpaths, according to the company. In using the Multi-Router, workers are no longer said to be at risk when switching hoses, and air pressure is not lost due to leaking connections. Present methods of hose switching, or the use of complex arrays of individual valves, have led to high labor costs, frequent breakdowns, loss of product and compromises of health and safety standards, according to the manufacturer.

Angled-head rotary cutter

An on-demand rotary cutter features a specialized head for cutting pipe, profile and tubing at variable angles from 90 [degrees] to 45 [degrees]. The unit has a maximum O.D. capacity of 3.0 in. (75 mm) and makes up to 500 cuts per minute at 90 [degrees] and up to 150 at 45 [degrees], depending on density of the extrusion. The unit employs a Vac-U-Torq vacuum clutch brake indexer drive system, said to provide high sustained accuracy while reducing the need for scheduled maintenance. Standard features include choice of centerline cen·ter·line
