Extrusion International 2-2018

Extrusion International 2/2018 Located immediately over the Bottle Zone, REPI will be presenting the entire range of liquid colours, additives and equipment for all plastics and their disparate applications at NPE2018 (May 7th – 11th, Orlando, Florida, USA). The portfolio comprises speciality additives for the pack- aging industry: injection moulding preforms, bottles and caps, as well as thermoformed trays and sheets or extru- sion blowmoulding containers. REPI additives range from Anti Yellow and IV Enhancers for R-Pet processing, moving to UV-Additives and special barrier colours with UV additive inside, to Blowing agents, Process Aids, Anti-Block which improve the production process and protect containers (injection moulded and ex- truded) from scratches and damages. Industrial applications are as well a target of REPI’s liq- uid technology, with products dedicated to Polycarbon- ate, PMMA, PVC, HDPE, PP, ABS which donate excellent dispersion and respect the custom specific technical re- quirements. A special mention goes to REPI Xpansor, the Foaming Agent for PVC in liquid form, able to lighten the extruded sheet and make the surface perfectly smooth. Among REPI ancillary equipment, the Dosing Unit U2011, successfully on the market for years, remains one of the favourite colour/additive dosing system, considered highly reliable both by extrusion and injection moulding proces- sors. Light Meter Plus is the new entry for what analysis instrument for preforms and bottles is concerned. In the Liquid Colours, Additives and Equipment for all Plastics REPI LLC www.repi.com South Hall S19103 www.sml.at Be sure not to miss SML at the NPE 2018 Stand No. W6185 Extrusion lines – engineered to perform Tailor-made engineering. Inspired by your productivity. 41 perspective of offering an all-round solution rather than just a product, REPI has been working over the years next to its customers building ties with them as partners. In this scenario, not only is the colour and additive formula- tion important, but also the availability of accurate dosing and analysis instruments to rely on for measuring the real presence and properties of the colour/additive in the final product. This is what the Dosing Unit U2011 and the Light Meter are able to offer. The bright white booth will be the meeting point where REPI “Colour Explorers” Team will welcome guests, to dis- cuss new projects and perform live demonstrations of in- struments and equipment.
