MEECH'S AIR TECHNOLOGY HELPS BOOST EFFICIENCY AND REDUCE WASTE

摘要

Paul Norman Plastics(PNP)has recently installed a Meech energy saving air curtain to reduce waste and boost production on one of its injection moulding machines.The firm,based in Stroud,Gloucestershire,previously used a simple air blast system to help items detach from the injection mould tool but found that it needed a more efficient solution.”We initially used a simple air blast system to help items detach from the injection mould tool.However,when the moulded items are very small and light,they would be pushed off into different directions and wouldn't fall uniformly into the collecting bins,sometimes missing the bins altogether,”explained Nigel Brammar,Business Development Manager.”Not only did this increase waste and disrupt the production process,the air systems themselves were quite noisy and uneconomical.We were on the lookout for a more efficient solution and that's where Meech comes in.The efficiency,compact size,and reduced energy consumption ticked all the boxes for us,and we were keen to get one installed on to one of our injection moulding machines to test its performance,”he added.
