Extrusion International 5-2024-USA

55 Extrusion International 5/2024 Latest Developments in Advanced Mold Temperature Control Units and Adiabatic Cooling Solutions F rigel Group will participate in Fakuma 2024, presenting the latest process cooling solutions, de - signed especially for the following Plastics fields: automotive, packag - ing, medical, household and tech - nical molding. Frigel is a Global Solutions Pro - vider for cooling and temperature control applications, with more than 10.000 customers worldwide. The companies innovation and ex- pertise offer unique systems, de- signed to match the specific needs of each industrial process. The innovative solutions are fo- cused on: • Maximizing productivity through highly innovative mold cooling tech - nologies; • Reducing overall operating costs, through significant energy and wa - ter savings; • Highest sustainability standards, with the lowest environmental foot- print in the market. Innovations: • New Turbogel B4: a new gen - eration of Mold Temperature Con- trol Units, specifically designed for cycle-time reduction for all injec- tion molding and packaging ap - plications achieving up to 40%in - creased productivity • New Microgel™ RSY: Unique Mold temperature Unit with pat- ented SYNCRO Variotherm Tech - nology, provides unprecedented increase in productivity of high- quality technical molding parts - up to 60% • Ecodry Adiabatic Cooler 4DK: centralized closed-circuit adiabatic cooling systems designed to re - place the old cooling tower tech - nology • 3PR 4.0 control system: com - plete real-time control of the en- tire cooling system (parameters, functions, alarms, etc.) • Thermogel TDK Series: High precision Single Zone pressur - ized water TCUs • A wide range of Microgel RSM/RSD provides an optimized mechanical design, in - creased reliability and a wide range of op - tions. Powerful pumps and precise tempera- ture control up to 90°C ensure long-term high performance and product quality im- provement with minimal cycle cool- ing time. New TURBOGEL B4 Series Frigel launches for the first time in market history, a New Generation of Mold Temperature Control Units, specifically designed for cycle cool - ing time reduction. The advantages for the customer are easily under- stood, increased productivity and profitability of a single production cell, against an investment with an average payback time of fewweeks. The unprecedented performance of these units guarantees a signifi - cant reduction of the cycle time by increasing the heat transfer efficien - cy between recirculating water flow and mold cavities, thus drastically re- ducing the cooling time of the actual cycles, over traditional TCUs. Turbogel “P” – for PACKAGING: This unique TCUs are designed for high performance mold cooling in low temperature applications, including packaging molding, clo - sures and thin-walled containers, blow molding, and extrusion appli - cations. Replacing the direct cooling from Central chillers, these units re- duce cooling cycle time of processes running with chilled water by highly increasing the heat transfer efficien - cy of the mold, obtaining productiv - ity boost between 10 and 20%. These units are available in single zone and dual zone configura - tions, including a high-performance booster pump per zone (with or without inverter), actuated modu - lating cooling valves and cooling capacities capable of servicing the highest throughputs. NewMICROGEL™ SYNCRO RSY Frigel presents to the market MI - CROGEL SYNCRO RSY, the most in - novative Mold temperature Control Unit featuring patented SYNCRO Variotherm Technology, integrated water-cooled chiller and double zone booster pumps. The new machine-side unit, that revolutionizes the temperature con - trol method for technical injection molding, allows for a drastic reduc - tion of cycle time -up to 60%-, while maintaining the surface quality, di - mensional characteristics and me- chanical properties of the finished technical products.
