SHOW PREVIEW | NPE 2018
environmental benefits, says Cloeren. The company will also show its NanoLayer
system, comprising a 55-layer NanoLayer Feed- block paired with a 5,435mm Epoch III Die. At the show, it will produce the third Generation (G3) of NanoLayer stretch films – which it says offer enhanced performance in high speed power pre-stretch applications. Cloeren will also display its Moebius manifold
die, which has an internal geometry that is suited to processing polymers with sensitive residence times, including PVC formulations. �

CMT Materials, which develops thermoforming plug-assist materials, will show its range of Hytac syntactic foams at NPE. The materials will also be featured at the booths
Below: CMT’s thermoforming plug-assist materials will be demonstrat- ed by several companies during NPE
of several leading thermoforming machine manu- facturers including: Germany-based Illig, Kiefel, and Gabler; Italy-based Wrapping Machinery and OMG; and US-based Sencorp, Brown Machine Group, and Irwin Research & Development. Illig, for instance, will use an RKDP 72 thermofor- mer to run a 6-up tool for PET tray production at 42 cpm, while Kiefel will demonstrate PP K-cup produc-

thermoformer with new tooling from Bosch-Sprang featuring Hytac XTL plugs. “We continue to enjoy strong growth for copolymer and thermoplastic plug materials as the global plastics packaging market continues to evolve and grow,” said Conor Carlin, sales and mar- keting manager for CMT Materials. Carlin noted that the increased growth is largely focused in food packaging applications in Europe and Asia, with material shifts away from PS to PP and new multilayer films. “These more complex polymers require more sophisticated plug assists beyond our basic epoxy-structured materials,” he said. In the last 18 months, CMT has expanded
production capabilities by 30% at its US headquar- ters, to keep pace with global demand for Hytac syntactic foam. �
