TPX™ [by Mitsui Chemicals Inc.] TPX™ is the trade name for Polymethylpentene (PMP), a lightweight, transparent thermoplastic. Properties: Transparency: Offers excellent clarity and light transmittance, making it suitable for optical applications. Heat Resistance: Can withstand high temperatures, making it useful in applications requiring thermal stability. Chemical Resistance: Resistant to many chemicals, including acids and bases. Low Density: One of the lightest thermoplastics, which makes it ideal for applications where weight reduction is important. Low Surface Tension: Reducing adhesion and making it easy to clean. Applications: Optical Lenses: Used in lenses and light covers due to its clarity. Medical Devices: Employed in medical applications for its chemical resistance and transparency. Laboratory Equipment: Used for beakers, flasks, and other lab tools requiring chemical resistance and transparency. Advantages: Lightweight and Transparent: Combines clarity with low density for versatile use in various industries. Thermal and Chemical Stability: Performs well under high temperatures and in the presence of harsh chemicals. TPX™ by Mitsui Chemicals Inc. is valued for its unique combination of properties, making it suitable for specialized applications in medical, optical, and industrial fields.

With years of experience in converting metal components into plastic, we have helped OEMs improve their products, reduce costs, and streamline the manufacturing process. In comparison with machining metal components, plastic allows for more complex shapes to be molded at a lower cost. It is crucial to introduce and improve engineered plastic resins with the strength and durability to compete with metals. Aside from having higher impact strength, fatigue life, and recoverable deformation, plastic components often have better wear surfaces and lower friction.

High modulus, reduced coefficient of friction, very good abrasionresistance

Labotek and Movacolor have combined their expertise to develop a pioneering solution for drying and dosing additives: the MDS Balance Drydose. This newly developed system combines, for the first time, highly efficient material drying with precise additive dosing – all in a single, compact unit. The MDS Balance Drydose thus sets new standards in plastics processing and offers a unique solution for the industry's increasing demands. The growing demand for bio-based materials, highly specialized engineering plastics, and increasingly stringent quality requirements necessitate new approaches to material preparation. This is precisely where the Drydose comes in: it ensures targeted, needs-based additive drying and makes a crucial contribution to further minimizing quality risks. A particular advantage of the system lies in the direct drying of the material within the dosing station directly at the machine inlet – without the need for additional drying units. This integration not only ensures consistently optimal moisture control but also simultaneously increases product quality, reduces rejects, and lowers energy consumption. The result: significantly improved overall production efficiency. “Since we installed the MDS Balance Drydose, streaks when using additives are a thing of the past!” Bernd Wilming, Production Manager, agathon GmbH

Tubular Cartridge Heaters are the ideal heating for injection moulding tools. They are suitable for the heating of spigot automats and for mandrel heaters, e.g. with tube extrusion. Further to this Tubular Cartridge Heaters find their application within hot runner systems, at machinery nozzles and within die-cast production.

Our Tubular Heaters out of own production are mainly used at liquid baths, air heaters, hot runner systems, screw-in tubular heaters, flange heaters, heat registers, heat exchangers, continuous flow heaters and for tool heating. Furthermore they are used for the production of our Cast Heaters.

Due to the manufacturing process, our tubular heaters are flexible when cold and can be bent into a variety of shapes. The tubular radiators are available in two diameters, 6.5 mm and 8.5 mm, with five connection variants. The further appearance of the tubular heater is made to measure.

Injection molding machines, robotic systems and extensive peripherals can be combined into individual turnkey systems with ARBURG as a system supplier.
