Working closely with its clients
Meltech has designed innovative plastics coiling solutions
which have boosted productivity and increased profitability.
Designed for plastic pipes and profiles,
as well as complex profiles such as those used in a
wide range
of markets including food packaging, agriculture
and medical equipment, Meltech machines are high speed,
twin head winding machines capable of speeds of up
to 400m per minute.
In semi-automated operation the
winding machine operator manually removes the full
reel and replaces it with
an empty reel. When fully automated the winding
system allow automatic changeover of the winding reels
ensuring
continuous production of extruded plastics. It
includes discharge conveyors from the machine which
take the
reels through to a pallet stacking machine. It
also allows plastics manufacturers to use larger reels
far bigger than those that could be handled by
an
operator.
Automated winding of plastic extrusion
profiles comes into its own when handling continuous
multiple
extrusions. The Meltech machines are able
to offer continuous
winding of multiple profiles, enabling significant
productivity
benefits compared with manual handling.
Readily
integrated within plastic extrusion production
operations, the Meltech machines feature touch
screen PLC control and are easy-to-use
and reliable. Reel
sizes start at 300mm; a bespoke engineering
service is also available. |
