MACHINERY REQUIREMENTS for THERMOFORMING PET/RPET

MACHINE DESIGN FEATURES for EFFICIENT THERMOFORMING of PET/RPET

• MATERIAL TRANSPORT• HEATING• FORMMING• TRIMMING

GREATLY REDUCES MATERIAL PARTICULATE CREATED BY PIN CHAIN PIERCING ON INFEED

EDGE PREHEAT

MATERIAL TRANSPORT

RPET/PET IS DIFFICULT TO PIERCE AND “SEAT” REQUIRING SPECIAL PIN PROFILE AND ADJUSTABLE INFEED

OVEN CONFIGURATION

HEATER PANELS SHOULD BE ZONED IN BOTH DIRECTIONS TO CONTROL SHEET TEMPERATURE

TO MATCH MOLD WIDTH AND INDEX LENGTH

MOLD OVERLAY

MATERIAL HEATING

CLOSED LOOP IR SCANNER AUTOMATICALLY MAINTAINS OVEN TEMPERATURE REQUIRED FOR IDEAL RPET/PET FORMING BY “READING” SHEET TEMPERATURE AS IT INDEXES INTO FORM PRESS

FORMINGCOMPARED TO MOST

MATERIALS RPET/PET REQUIRES HIGHER TONNAGE FOR SIMILAR FORM

RPET/PET REQUIRES INDEPENDENT PLUG ASSIST FOR PROPER MATERIAL DISTRIBUTION IN DEEP-DRAW PARTS

RPET/PET REQUIRES PRECISE MOLD TEMPERATURE CONTROL FOR IDEAL FORMING

CUTTINGRPET/PET REQUIRES HIGHER

TONNAGE FOR SIMILAR LINEAR INCHES OF CUT COMPARED TO SIMILAR MATERIALS

HEATED CUTTING DIES REDUCE TRIM PRESS TONNAGE FOR RPET/PET AND PROVIDES A “CLEAN” CUT EDGE

NOTE - SPECIAL ATTENTION REQUIRED WHEN “KNICKING” TRIM KNIFE TO ELIMINATE RPET/PET “SPLITTING” IN STACKER STATION. CONSULT YOUR TOOL MAKER!
