Special machine construction projects

Special machinery projects

Complexity and individual concepts combined

Special machinery projects are characterized by their complexity and individual design. Special machines offer specially developed solutions for specific customer tasks - often accompanied by the automation of parts or units.

High performance even without a foundation

Hydraulic lightweight press

We were able to develop a special innovation in the field of forming together with IWC. The result was a hydraulic press that requires neither a foundation nor a basement.

This crucial aspect minimizes space requirements, improves the arrangement of machines and enables efficient workspace design. The quick installation without a foundation shortens the commissioning time and promotes a rapid start to production. The flexibility of location without a fixed foundation makes it easy to adapt the machine.

Unlike conventional hydraulic presses, we provide you with individual sizes designed for your specific applications. This minimizes the space required in the workshop and reduces both acquisition and running costs.

Load-bearing lightweight components using the UD tape process

UD tape system

UD tapes are continuous fiber-reinforced tapes with a thermoplastic matrix.

The product is thermoplastically moldable, lightweight and yet resilient.

The glass or carbon fibers of the UD tape are unidirectional and can be processed into multilayer components using pressing or thermal processes.

The tapes are manufactured using the patented direct impregnation process, which achieves a high degree of impregnation and a good bond between the fibers and the matrix material. The fiber content of the tapes can be flexibly adjusted for different areas of application.

In further process steps, the UD tape can be used to produce organic sheets and molded parts.

UD-Tape ERMAFA

Potential

Mode of operation

The UD tape system produces a composite material from plastic melt and reinforcing fiber. The creel stores the reinforcing fiber, the fiber spreader forms a unidirectional fiber fabric. In parallel, a compounding line prepares the plastic melt in the extruder (ERMAFA twin-screw extruder). The melt pump transports the melt to the patented impregnation tool, where it is rolled into the fiber web. The components pass through a wide slot die to the 3-roll calenderwhich presses and smoothes them into a composite material. After cooling on the roller conveyor, the edge strips are trimmed and rolled up. The take-off device pulls the material off the calender and the rewinder rolls it up.

These autoclaves for the treatment of contaminated waste provide enormous economic added value! Cross-contamination is eliminated through direct on-site treatment - which is safe for people and the environment.

In addition, cost-intensive transportation of hazardous goods is no longer necessary, which represents an enormous CO² saving potential.
