pressure compensation systems. At the same time, the company’s K-ML-BSP-
150-S Bulk Solids Pump (BSP) feeder offers gentle feeding of free-flowing granular materials. It does not use the usual screws/augers, belts or vibratory trays, but instead uses positive displacement action to feed free flowing materials with high accuracy, offering uniform discharge, consistent volume and gentle handling. With no pockets or screws and only one moving
part, the compact feeder can be cleaned in seconds. It feeds from 34 to 6700 dm3 237 ft3

2017 expanded its wire and cable, pipe and tube equipment offerings, and added facilities in Finland and Switzerland. Pipe and tube capabilities include automotive, heating and plumbing, irrigation, medical, micro-duct, off-shore and custom lines. The acquisition complements Davis-Standard’s presence in China with Davis- Standard (Suzhou) Plastics Packaging Machinery. The Suzhou facility is its manufacturing base in China, offering equipment for FPVC medical tubing and co-extrusion applications as well as assembly of electrical control panels, extruders and gearcases.

supports Asia’s growing medical market. The lab is equipped with technology such as the MEDD extruder – which is being shown at Chinaplas – to test a range of rigid and flexible products as well as FPVC tubing for IV & fluid delivery. Applications include microbore tubing, multi-lumen and catheter tubing, endotracheal and tracheotomy tubing, radio opaque tubing, bubble tubing, taper tubing, pipette tubing and multi-layer tubing. The MEDD is specifically engineered for these tight tolerance applications due to its compact design, energy efficiency and materials versatility. Advantages of the extruder include linear movement, a replace- ment feed section liner, interchangeable barrel assemblies and a Windows-based control system. “Our location in Suzhou has been instrumental
to our growth in China,” said Sekaran Murugaiah, Davis-Standard vice president of business develop- ment in Asia. “One customer has made us their preferred extruder provider due to our regional presence and consistent equipment performance.”
