In Friedrichshafen the Group will unveil several innovations including:
- HandlinkEvo the manual coupling station that allows the operator to correctly match material sources to receivers, reducing errors thanks to a system of flashing coloured LEDs. It can be equipped with Easy3+, a management for centralised feeding systems, which verifies the correct locking or matching of source and destination. In case of problems, such as an open circuit or material mismatch, it stops the feeding cycles and alerts the operator.
- GDS-5E, the new gravimetric dosing system developed by Piovan Fdm, suitable for granules, additives and powders. It supports extruder operations in overfeed and underfeed modes, ensuring full control of the extrusion line.
-
Easyfeed+, the new gravimetric dosing unit available in 4 sizes with throughput up to 200, 400, 600, and 800 kg/h and with variable configurations from 2 to 5 ingredients specifically designed for hungry mouth extrusion and injection molding processes, which require high dosing accuracy and homogeneous dispersion of additives.
Easyfeed+ - C20 deduster the new compact dust collector designed to remove dust and angel hair that can cause imperfections. The design facilitates retrofitting, making C20 ideal for injection moulding and extrusion processes.
- Quantum+, the gravimetric dosing unit that guarantees high dosing precision and accuracy, encompassing all the technical advantages of Quantum and MDW in a single equipment, in a perfect combination that makes it suitable for processing all plastics.
Other top Piovan branded products:
-
Modula, the best-in-class multiple hopper drying systems for injection processes that automatically adjusts and controls all operating parameters of each individual hopper, using only the total amount of energy strictly necessary.
Easypure - DPA, the compressed air dryer that can reach dew point values down to -40 °C. DPA at the exhibition will be presented in a special medical edition in combination with Moisture Minder, the solution for the in-line measurement of the moisture in the plastic granules with full traceability and monitoring of the production process.
- Easylink+, the automatic coupling station able to handle up to 60 inlets/outlets with pipe sizes from 40 to 76 mm with a minimum footprint.
- Pureflo, the vacuum receiver that eliminates the need of ordinary maintenance for cleaning; at the show it will be equipped with Ryng, the best solution for real-time production monitoring and the usage of the raw material.
- Easypure, through a 3D scenario visitors will be able to discover the unique features of the innovative odour removal system. Easypure can be equipped with Odor Minder, the electronic nose designed to improve the deodorisation process in terms of effectiveness and efficiency.
At the stand, visitors will have the opportunity to try out Winfactory 4.0, the software for the control and management of production process developed by Piovan for the supervision of the digital factory, which enables the tracking of every single batch of raw materials and finished products.
There will also be innovations in the field of cooling and temperature control. Visitors will have the opportunity to discover Easytherm, the complete range of temperature controllers - water, pressurised and oil - under the Thermal Care brand characterised by heat exchange efficiency and process reliability.
