Extrusion International 5-2016

43 / 84

Of course, a complete extrusion line also requires a matching
con-trol technology. Here, too, flexibility is key. A new control
with a modern 21.5” full-HD multitouch display in landscape
format will be presented at the booth. Not only does it offer
a novel operating and visualization concept, but also addi-
tional features that are a perfect tool for processors in the re-
alization of industry 4.0 agen-das.
Flexibility is paramount for twin screw extruders
The machine portfolio at the booth is completed by several
twin screw extruder exhibits for pipe and profile production.
The high-light are two models from the completely newly de-
veloped conical twin screw extruder series that offers an ex-
ceptionally wide appli-cation range thanks to a newly
designed processing unit. Apart from the processing technol-
ogy, the complete machine was rede-signed and optimized
based on experiences in the field. “With this series we take
into account, among other considerations, the in-creasing re-
quirements of window profile producers. The machines offer
a wide throughput range, as well as the possibility of pro-cess-
ing diverse formulations,” emphasizes Dr. Stieglitz in speaking
of the new series’ advantages. In addition to their flexibility,
the extruders convince with gentle melt processing and easy
handling.
At K 2016, two extruders from the new series will be shown:
a conEX NG 65 in stand-alone execution and a conEX NG 54
in a co-extrusion set-up. The latter is mounted on a pedestal
and com-bined with a twinEX 93EP as main extruder. This new
pedestal solution is suitable for a variety of set-up options and
can be ad-justed individually to the location’s requirements
thanks to its modular system. The set-up on display offers
processors highest flexibility and an optimal price-perfor-
mance ratio. In addition, the conEX NG 54 will feature an en-
ergy-saving kit.
This includes a synchronous motor and a variety of additional
features that signifi-cantly reduce the extruder’s energy con-
sumption.
Grant Flaharty feels certain: “With the different exhibits from
our wide product portfolio for the extrusion industry, we are
present-ing modern, energy-efficient solutions that will meet
the future requirements of the industry as well.”
An XXL version of the successful Multi-Touch roll
stack will be shown at the booth
The conEX NG series features a newly developed
processing unit and is extremely flexible and energy-efficient.
Both a stand-alone execution and a co-extrusion execution
mounted on a pedestal will be exhibited
