Schenck Process will be highlighting its Mechatron dry material feeders that can handle a wide range of bulk solid materials such as titanium dioxide, wood flour or carbon black. They are available for volumetric or gravimetric feeding applications, and can be specified with flexible or stainless steel hoppers. Complete disassembly for the non-process side of the feeder simplifies cleaning and maintenance. The company will also be showing its E-finity low-
R&B Plastics Machinery will use next month’s NPE show as the launchpad for its new cost-effective Max extrusion control system. This uses an economical Windows CE-based human machine interface (HMI) system that provides performance similar to SCADA software systems, according to R&B. Featuring Allen Bradley and Ifix systems, the Max
Reduction Engineering’s new RE series pulverizers feature a compact design and faster clean-out
control platform can provide integrated line control for a wide range of extrusion applications, including compounding and recycling. It provides control of temperature, speed and pressure with the touch of a screen. Integration of upstream and downstream equipment is also available. The system is customised to meet end-user
requirements, including the selection of hardware suppliers. It can be retrofitted to all makes of extruders and can also be used with R&B’s own Max extruder product line. ❙
