Netstal is presenting innovative injection moulding solutions at this year's K trade fair. The company is presenting production systems designed to increase productivity and enable shorter cycle times, high precision and reliability. Resources are also to be utilised efficiently.
Your The enhanced ELIOS celebrates its trade fair premiere By switching to an all-electric mould closing system, the drying cycle has been accelerated by 0.1 seconds. Users benefit not only from increased productivity, but also from optimised energy efficiency: the average power consumption of the machine is reduced by 7kW in relation to the drying cycle.
Another bonus point is the 450 mm shorter machine length. On the Netstal-stand, the ELIOS 4500 will produce thin-walled 150ml IML yoghurt pots. from a certified, renewable PP from Sabic produce. The material is based on tall oil, a waste product from paper production. It has the same processing properties as conventional polypropylene (PP) and can be recycled in the material cycle. One cup weighs just 6.5 grams.
Like the fast handling system, the 12-cavity mould comes from IML Solutions. The cycle time will be around 5 seconds. The In-mould labels from Verstraete are digitally watermarked with the Holy Grail 2.0 initiative be equipped. Codes that are invisible to the human eye are printed on the entire surface of the labels. These contain machine-readable information about the contents, packaging material and origin. Different types of plastic are separated by type and sent for recycling.
