need in the sector. “Our customers particularly appreciate the ability to monitor the mills’ mechanical components and schedule maintenance accordingly, so avoiding disruptive and costly production downtime,” he says. “High levels of demand have meant we have been able to adapt the Smart Control System to all our series much sooner than originally planned.” Tria’s latest developments for injection moulders were also on display at Fakuma 2021. These included the new version of the company’s JM 15 Series. Innovations include a hopper with a larger inlet to better collect the material coming from the press; a reduced height to make it easier to position units under the press; a reduced footprint; and a high efficiency motor to reduce consumption. Noise levels are also lower than before, without the use of a soundproof box for both in-line and off-line use.
The new version of JM 15 Series is available in two versions, the JM 2115 and JM 4215. They sit alongside existing models, which continue to be available. Wittmann too has been upgrading existing
units. G-Max compact beside-the-press granulators are for closed-loop material recycling of sprues and runners coming from injection mould- ing machines up to 5,000 kN. They grind soft to medium-hard pieces made typically from polyolefins, ABS, and TPUs. The design of the G-Max series has now been standardised, based on the design of G-Max 13.
This means that the larger G-Max 23 and G-Max 33 units now come with larger hopper openings, and customers are now given a choice between a fixed and a rotatable version of material outlets. All units are driven by a Poly-V belt transmission.
Wittmann says that in the realm of small beside- the-press granulators, it is alone in offering a belt drive with an automatic tensioning system.
