Boasting a 70+ years corporate history and ever-growing investment in R&D, Hennecke GmbH develops and supplies both individual machines and complex processing solutions.
Jointly with its local subsidiary Hennecke Asia Pte. Ltd. – India Branch Office, Hennecke will once again put on display its rich expertise and coveted solutions for cutting-edge PU processing at the upcoming PU TECH INDIA 2017 trade show. The event will be hosted by India Expo Center of New Delhi on March 8 to 10, 2017.
New discharge system for continuous flexible and rigid foam applications |
At its 40 m2 booth (C13 & C14 in hall A), Hennecke will bring special attention to slabstock applications. However, the Hyderabad-based corporate branch will bring forward the whole company portfolio: elastomer-processing machinery; lines for production of molded foams, sandwich panels, and technical insulation; mixing head and PUR-CSM plant technologies; measuring machines etc. Local Hennecke specialists will get support from German experts arriving straight from the corporate headquarters.
The company is confident that its wide series of slabstock lines for continuous production of quality flexible PU foams will appeal to visitors of all kinds. This particular area finds Hennecke leading the world industry for a few years already, with over six hundred plants supplied globally. Combining a powerful stirrer with highly accurate pressure measurement, continuous slabstock lines guarantee increased processing efficiency for any commercial material of nearly any density.
No wonder thus that one of the anticipated highlights at Hennecke booth will be a brand new distribution system for flexible foam production, baptized Zero Age Applicator. The innovation is particularly convincing in terms of better handling of liquid material mixture flow. Ideally, raw material must be uniformly distributed over the entire foaming width, while the foaming reaction is to be triggered at the exact same moment. Traditional discharge systems employ either several mixing heads or various mechanical arrangements for attaining the optimal distribution conditions. The peculiarity of Zero Age Applicator is the simultaneous use of several nozzles in the discharge unit, arranged in a semicircle. Therefore, the mixed material makes it way to the bottom sheet in several streams over the foaming width — the critical factor being the reaction triggered at the very same moment across the entire width. Indeed, one can see that foam cells line up perfectly with no time delay.
At PU TECH INDIA, the company will additionally dwell on the comprehensive equipment upgrade options offered by highly competent local Hennecke experts. Retrofitting allows company customers to capitalize on increased availability and ideal performance of the plant.
