Kaeser’s SAM 4.0 aims to optimise
compressed air system control
interface, barcode reader, touchscreen support, email notification function in case of alarms and log reporting.
In control Kaeser Kompressoren will show its Sigma Air Manager 4.0 system for controlling operation of its compressed air units and dryers. This intelligent system automatically monitors operating conditions and compressed air demand to coordinate optimal operation of all connected system components. The company says the results is a more dependable supply of quality compressed air at minimum cost. The system will also allow the company to introduce a predictive maintenance option to reduce servicing costs.
Instron’s ElectroPuls E1000 Electro- dynamic Testing System incorporates oil-free linear motor technology
The company will also show its new CSD/CDSX series of rotary screw compressors. The five models in the two ranges feature Kaeser’s Super Premium Efficiency IE4 motors with rated capacities of 45-90kW. The five models cover flow rates from 8.3 to 16.1m3
(at 8.5 bar) and are configured for pressures up to 15 bar. The energy-saving Secotec TF and TE series refrigeration dryers will also be seen.
High throughput Koch-Technik will launch its Duo vacuum conveying system concept, which is described as a cost effective option for feeding plastic granulates to two plastics processing stations or material dryers. Each Duo system consists of a frame with a vacuum generator and control system as well as two material hopper loaders with hoppers allowing material throughputs of 120- 340kg/h. In contrast to the company standalone conveyors, the Duo systems have jus one three-phase vacuum genera-
tor, which allows them to provide similar performance at a more facvourable price. The company says the target market for
the product is plastics processors needing to supply two demand points close to one another, with medium to large
material throughputs. It has also added dry air technology to its KKT series of mobile granulate dryers, and equipped them with a new control system with touch screen. The new units include an Eco energy saving programme that can cu energy use by up to 40%. Three sizes are available, offering dry air volumetric /h.
flow rates of 55, 75, or 100m3 46 PIPE & PROFILE EXTRUSION | October 2016
ProTec Polymer Processing will introduce the Somos /min
Batchmix XL batch metering unit for throughputs of up to 1,920kg/h, and the stationary Somos RDT-200 dry air dryer for moderate throughputs. The company says that the Batchmix XL is suitable for feeding multi-component mixtures to both injection moulding machinery and extruders, and can handle up to six components. It can be equipped with suction conveyors for automatically filling storage hoppers. The RDT-200 stationary dry air dryer has an effective dry air throughput of 140-300m3
/
h. The drying vessels, which are square on the outside and cylindrical on the inside, can be fitted together to form a compact modular drying system, comprising up to six vessels in graduated sizes – with effective hopper volumes of 50-300 litres.
Staying cool Frigel will show an expanded line of chillers at K2016 – including its Heavygel 3HL and 3HM. The air-cooled Heavygel chillers are now available in 34 models, and deliver anywhere from 79 to 1,428kW (26 to 393 tonnes) of cooling capacity. Additionally, multiple models are available for operation in ambient tempera- tures that range from -15 to 55°C (5 to 131F). Heavygel chillers are available in a variety of configurations, including units designed to connect to external pumping systems, or to completely packaged systems that already contain all the necessary auxiliary components. A variety of condenser fans, such as variable speed units that automatically adjust to varying loads and ambient conditions, are also available. Among the enhancements to the series is the
incorporation of Frigel’s 3PR control technology. This gives the units Wi-Fi and Ethernet capability – allowing connection to building management systems, while providing easy access to operational data. In addition, 3PR technology allows users to control and optimise all aspects of the chillers, while Frigel technicians can remotely access the control system and view real-time data to help with troubleshooting.
