Trexel licenses users of demag ergocell system. (In Brief).


Trexel Inc., Woburn, Mass., the licensor of the MuCell microcellular-foam molding and extrusion process, has come to an agreement with Demag Ergotech GmbH of Germany and Strongsville, Ohio Strongsville is a city in Cuyahoga County, Ohio, United States. The population was 43,858 as of the 2000 Census. The current mayor, Thomas Perciak, was elected in November 2003 following the death of longtime mayor Walter F. Ehrnfelt in May. , concerning Demag's competing Ergocell foam molding process. The MuCell process injects [CO.sup.2] or nitrogen gas into the injection barrel, where it is mixed into the melt by the screw screw, simple machine consisting essentially of a solid cylinder, usually of metal, around which an inclined plane winds spirally, either clockwise or counterclockwise. . The Ergocell approach instead uses a two-stage injection system, where by [CO.sup.2] gas is injected in·ject·ed

Demag has agreed with Trexel that any customers for Ergocell machines will need a user license from Trexel before they can take delivery of the press. This license is somewhat less expensive than a MuCell license because it involves no transfer of know-how from Trexel. Like a MuCell license, it is an annual fee that depends on the size of the machine. Demag Ergotech is also licensed to supply MuCell-capable machines, but the same machine cannot perform both processes.
