The distinguishing features of the BA series
- Complete separation of clamping unit and extrusion unit.
- Clamping unit with underlying guidance - Rapid movement by means of 2 hydraulic cylinders using
proportional technology (one on each side) with mechanical synchronized guidance.
- A fully synchronously operating control by means of an electronic hydraulic control system act on locking bars
and ensure exact welding and secure locking of the mould with precisely defined clamping force distribution. This ensures that, irrespective of reaction forces occurring, the advancing displacement is identical at all points of
force introduction. Such a system ensures a perfect closing movement.
- The entire clamping unit can travel on rails. Consequently, for mould changing, it can be rolled out away from
the head, so that mould fitting by means of a crane or forklift truck is easily possible, especially as there is good access to the clamping region through the locking bars from the sides as well. In addition, the system may be optionally used for continuous parison extrusion, as appropriate for example in the case of coextrusion. In this
case, automatic sideways-travelling of the clamping unit is employed.
- The relatively little moved masses and a modern hydraulic system ensure that the energy requirement and consequently the operating costs remain low. Only the opening and closing displacements necessary for pro-
duction are executed. Rapid closing speed guarantees short cycles.
- The system may be extended by connecting downstream postcooling and/or punching stations to form complete production lines, these stations being constructed on the modular principle.
- The extruder platform with standard electromotive height adjustment ensures good accessibility to extruder
and head. It corresponds essentially to our previous successful solution for this area.
- The accumulator head range with capacities from 2,5 to 80 liters guarantees an economic solution for every
task, either with single or with double head. Furthermore, the system may be equipped with heads for continuous parison output, to be precise optionally for BI-EX-production (multilayer process for processing recycled material)
and for CO-EX production (multilayer technique using barrier material and bonding agent).
