Thermoset and reactive plastics moulding collaboration
Three German-based companies have revealed that they signed a contract for co-operation in the area of reactive plastics in December. Their stated aim is to advance technologies in the fields of thermoset injection moulding and processing of other reactive plastic materials. The three companies are: Schwarz Plastic Solutions, a technology service provider that supports plastics processors in all matters relating to thermosets; Precupa, which produces injection moulding tools with weights of up to 3.5 tonnes and dimensions of up to 600 x 600 mm, and has experience in moulds for thermoset; and injection moulding machinery group, Wittmann Battenfeld. “The conviction that thermosets and other reactive plastic materials are
specially equipped for thermoset processing. This has 2,400 kN clamping force and features different plasticising systems. These features enable it

gaining more and more significance, above all in the electrical engineering sector has prompted us to pool our expertise in machine and automation technology, process technology and mould technology,” the
companies stated. As part of the agreement,
Precupa and Schwarz have acquired a SmartPower XL 240/3400 Unilog B8 servo-hydraulic injection moulding machine from Wittmann Battenfeld that is
to produce small shot weights and dimensions of up to 200 cm³, but also large shot weights with volumes of up to 1,500 cm³, such as an encapsulation for electric motors, or over- moulding of inserts. The system can process
both granulated thermosets and paste materials, such as wet polyester, while an additional hydraulic unit, offers high additional compression forces for processes like injection compression or injection stamping and a modular thermoset mould facilitates extensive processing test series. �
