Account Manager at Greiner Extrusion in Austria, will explore other advances in tooling for profile extrusion.
Additives and extruders The opening presentation on Day Two of Profiles 2017 will be given by Timo Siebel, Product Manager at Chemson in Germany, speaking about current and future stabilisation additives for PVC window profiles. Continuing the theme of additives, Dr. Reinhard Beck, Managing Director at IKA Innovative Kunststoffauf- bereitung in Germany, will present a new generation of impact modifiers for PVC window profile production. The evolution of acrylic processing aids for foam profiles will be the subject for Dr. Harald Braun, Technical Director at Kaneka Belgium. Session seven of the conference will see extrusion

can lend to PVC. The highly important topic of fire retardance will be addressed by Les Rose, Technical Director at Impact Solutions in the UK, who will speak about polymer-based profiles with exceptional fire performance. Following the lunch break, session four will look at
adding value and functionality with pigments and masterbatches. Geert Sterkendries, Technical Specialist at Chemours in Belgium, will speak on improving the durability of profiles in exterior applica- tions with advanced titanium dioxides. Dr. Josef Kuchler, Head of Technical Department at Farben- werke Wunsiedel in Germany, will discuss new challenges for colouring PVC with the aim of providing a deeper understanding of the differences between powder pigment compositions and colour masterbatch- es. Advances in heat-reflecting masterbatch for PVC profiles and siding will be explored by Marta Ortiz, PVC Specialist at IQAP Masterbatch in Spain. The fifth and final session of Day One turns to the
extrusion process, specifically the critical function of the die. João Miguel Nóbrega, Assistant Professor at University of Minho in Portugal, will survey develop- ments in computational codes to aid the design of profile forming tools. Wilhelm Dieterstorfer, Key

technology companies presenting approaches to optimising profile production. Stephen Jones, European Business Manager at Milacron Extrusion in the UK, will present a case study on the specification, installation, operation and processing optimisation of a state-of-the- art profile extrusion line. In compounding extruders, Manfred Wiedmann, General Manager Business Unit Compounding Plants at Coperion in Germany, will show how operators of PVC mixing plants could benefit from the Industry 4.0 megatrend. Dieter Reisenhofer, Product Manager for Profile and Sheet Extrusion at Battenfeld-Cincinnati in Austria, will discuss how the company’s technologies, including its new conical extruder series, can help meet the challenges in PVC processing. In the last session of the conference, Florian Geyer,
Business Development Manager Europe at Starrett- Bytewise Measurement Systems in USA, will discuss the advantages of laser-based inline profile inspection for extruding various types of construction profile. Then advances in printing and labelling for construction profiles will be presented by Frank Dubbins, Global Sector Manager – Industrial, at Domino Industrial in Germany. The final presentation will be on performance tests of plastics-based cladding profiles by Daniel Friedrich, Scientific Project Manager, at Lucerne University of Applied Sciences in Switzerland.
