Woywod’s new 4-litre weigh- ing hopper is designed for
granular, free flowing
materials and regrinds
densities of up to 450kg/m³. It is aimed at the packaging and automobile industries, as well as other technical applications. The new machine can split significantly harder
materials – with high densities, and hardness levels of over 40 shore A. It can split a wide variety of materials including polyethylene, cellular rubber, foam rubber, reticulated foams, EVA and latex. With polyethylene, it can split densities of over 100kg/m³ in the course of comprehensive tests. An innovative knife guide system was
developed in cooperation with major polyethyl- ene producers and manufacturers. The result is a knife bar with a new geometrical shape, which combines the properties of greater stability but also reduced friction with an exact cutting guide. Instron is to present a range of its polymer testing
systems at K2016. For static tensile, flexure, compression, bend, peel,
Conair’s R-Pro vacuum conveying system
minimises pellet fracturing and equipment wear
shear, tear and cyclic tests, it will show a 5969 electro- mechanical dual column table-top system for mid- range testing, together with pneumatic grips, designed for a nominal load of 10kN, in combination with an automatically contacting Instron AutoX extensometer. For automated testing runs, meeting the require- ments of all common testing standards, it will present its latest development – the TestMaster AT3 – for tensile and flexure testing. Once the tray has been loaded and the start button pushed, its automated specimen loading feature improves repeatability and reproducibil- ity of testing and results, minimising human influence, increasing safety by keeping the operator away from the testing area, and improving ergonomics by virtually eliminating repetitive motions associated with high volume manual testing. All test runs will be controlled, documented and stored in a database using Bluehill 3 testing software.
Weighing options Woywod Kunststoffmaschinen is to introduce a new 4-litre weighing hopper (TRW 4L) for processing quantities up to around 80kg/h. The compact, low cost weighing hopper adds to the
company’s existing range of weighing hoppers and loss-in-weight systems. It is designed for granular, free flowing materials and regrinds and can be used in all areas of the plastic processing. The hopper fits into the Plasticolor modular system,
and can be used to upgrade existing equipment. Three different versions are available: a small hopper that is manually refilled by the operator; a version with an inlet funnel and hopper loader, for automatic refilling; and one with storage hopper and butterfly valve, for automatic refilling. In combination with the Plasticolor 1500 dosing unit,
it can be used as gravimetric single dosing unit or in colour change systems. The weighing hopper is positioned on a slanted extension in order to avoid collision with the main material hopper. Very small quantities can be dosed in gravimetric operation.
