MuCell process is showcased at Fakuma 2012

摘要

TREXEL Inc., based in Wilmington, Mass., will showcase its MuCell technology with several partner companies at the FAKUMA International Trade Fair for Plastics Processing October 16-20 in Friedrichshafen, Germany. The MuCell process will be used to manufacture two demonstration parts at the show: a mobile telephone case at the KraussMaffei stand (A7-7303) and a Frisbee flying disc at the Fraunhofer-Institut fur Chemische Technology ICT-booth (B2-2104). At its booth (A4-4007), Trexel will also highlight the use of MuCell with Engel's Dolphin process to produce highly aesthetic soft-touch instrument panels for Daimler's Mercedes Actros truck. At the KraussMaffei stand, the MuCell microcellular foam system is used on KM's GX450-3000 injection molding machine to produce a demonstration mobile phone case made of 20% glass-filled polypropylene (PP). MuCell delivers numerous benefits including reduced weight, lower mold clamping force, elimination of sink marks, and improved dimensional stability.
