PFFC - December 2008 - (Page 42) WHAT’S NEW PRODUCTS Cool Blown Film FOIL STAMP Foil Press Offers Durability, Precision Geitz FSA 1060 Foil Commander press reportedly offers speeds to 8,000 sph without sacrificing quality. Vacufoil foil transporation system makes it possible to process large diameter rolls at maximum speeds. The 1060x760-mm size covers established and new formats in the B1/40-in. size range. Smart Register sheet registration system compensates for inaccurate sheet cut and in-feed errors as well as sheet distortion. uMatik | 860-232-2323 | www.matik.com PFFC-ASAP 406 Re-Machine Collars And Couplings Communicate Easily The TS8015 operator interface panel with a bright TFT XGA display and touchscreen has a built-in web server and FTP server/client said to make remote communications quick and easy. This HMI (humanmachine interface) can be used on converting machinery such as a laminators, coaters, extruders, or printers to control and operate the VFDs that power the line. Allows operators to view the drive diagnostics, change setups or recipes, or view production trends. uParker Hannifin | 704-583-8101 | www.ssddrives.com PFFC-ASAP 408 Precision-machined shaft collars and couplings include a pilot hole to let users re-machine them to match their own requirements. Collars can be re-bored and threaded to match the size of worn or replacement shafts; couplings allow for the effective mating of dissimilar-sized shafts. Both are made from steel. uStafford Mfg. Corp. | 800-695-5551 | www.staffordmfg.com PFFC-ASAP 410 The BFC Series of Blown Film Air Coolers reportedly offers an increase in blown film productivity, especially in warmer climates or other environments where ambient air temperatures rise during the summer. Boosts productivity by eliminating production variables in air ring supply, including air temperature, pressure, and volume. Design provides for long life, durability, and accurate air ring process control, says company. Available in sizes from 600–7,500 CFM. uMokon | 716-876-9951 | www.mokon.com PFFC-ASAP 411 Drives Have Higher Horsepower ACS350 machinery drives are designed to make it easy for volume machine builders to increase average throughput time via an average 2-sec programming time/unit. Ratings of the drives have been extended to 15 hp at 240V and 30 hp at 480V, and units are RoHS-compliant, with coated boards. Features are designed to minimize installation and commissioning time and cost. uABB | 845-278-6810 | www.abb.com PFFC-ASAP 407 Small Footprint, Big Benefits FOIL STAMP The EHG Series half-sheet (22 x 30 in.) press has a small footprint yet reportedly maintains quality, accuracy, and fast makereadies. Total press area is 44 sq ft and work area is 135 sq ft. Features the EZ Load Magazine, which allows the entire magazine to be lowered or raised with the turn of a switch. uBrandtjen & Kluge | 800-826-7320 | www.kluge.biz PFFC-ASAP 412 Viscometer Has New Features Replace Treater Rolls Company will provide replacement rolls to exacting specifications. It engineers and produces high-tolerance corona treater rolls with a variety of finishes, including rubber-covered, chrome-plated, or plasmacoated surfaces. Roll lengths of 315 in. are common, but company can produce rolls to 500 in. long in diameters to 62 in. uPFE Rolls | 978-544-7803 | www.pferolls.com PFFC-ASAP 409 42 | DECEMBER 2008 The redesigned DV-II+Pro viscometer features bi-directional communication when used with a dedicated computer. Said to offer easy operation for singlepoint viscosity measurement or can be configured to run automated tests in stand-alone mode for comprehensive flow curve characterization without involvement from operator or computer. uBrookfield Engineering | 800-628-8139 | www. brookfieldengineering.com PFFC-ASAP 413 WWW.PFFC-ONLINE.COM http://www.matik.com http://www.staffordmfg.com http://www.mokon.com http://www.kluge.biz http://www.abb.com http://www.ssddrives.com http://www.brookfieldengineering.com http://www.pferolls.com http://www.brookfieldengineering.com http://WWW.PFFC-ONLINE.COM
