Mobile and high-precision wall thickness measurement
Stefan Depmer, Head of Technologies and Operations with the company WKT still remembers former days when reliable and effi cient wall thickness measurement was carried out by ultrasonic devices. WARP portable – the iNOEX handheld system based on Terahertz technology offers high-precision wall thickness measurement.
PVC-O Pipes and Fittings
The environmental impact of a piping system depends on its composition and application thereof. The factors determining the efficiency over the entire life cycle of a pipe are mainly: the type of raw material used, the production process, the product finish and its useful life.
New Line Concept for Single-Origin Packaging Solutions
Brückner Maschinenbau is working on a means to make films with the highest possible recycling capabilities producible on film stretching lines. For the K 2019 Brückner will introduce two completely new line concepts for the production of BOPE films.
New Colors & Effects® Pigments meet Emerging Industry Requirements
BASF will present innovation highlights from its broad range of Colors & Effects® pigments for plastic applications at the K trade fair. The new product launches include two new Lumina® Royal effect pigments, Microlen® Piano Black, and a black and red addition to the Sicopal® product line.
Brand New Solutions to Meet Customer Needs
DuPont regularly launches brand new advanced material solutions based on the needs of customers and gaps in the industry. This commitment to customers is a major driver for the company, enabling it to continuously develop and introduce a steady stream of new cutting-edge technologies to the polymer market.
New Innovations require New Technologies
At the K trade fair, the latest innovations are presented, and new technologies meet users. This is where Schoenenberger feels at home. Displayed at the K is the so called “KRONOS” – a tungsten carbidetipped, cutting rotor in a very robust design, which is used for highly filled and very abrasive polymers.
