TOP 3100 LSR Dosing System

At Fakuma 2024, ELMET will be presenting its expanded portfolio of dosing systems with various equipment levels for LSR injection molding at booth A5-5306. Together with the tried-and-tested TOP 5000 P and 7000 Pro, the new Top 3100 and TOP 700 models cover a wide range of different customer requirements in terms of footprint, drum size and degree of automation. An upgraded pump is now also capable of processing particularly highly thixotropic or stable materials. Visitors to the trade fair will be able to see the TOP 700 dosing system in action at Arburg’s booth (A3-3101). While at Momentive Performance Materials’ booth (A4-4307), a TOP 7000 Pro dosing system will be showing off its capabilities as part of a joint project together with Momentive and Sumitomo. Elmet also constructed the cold runner mold installed there.

Elastomer Processing

As leading developer and manufacturer of injection molding machines, the Austrian machine builder ENGEL, headquartered in Schwertberg, will showcase its expertise in elastomer processing at the German Rubber Conference (DKT) from July 1 to 4, 2024, in Nuremberg. By presenting two specialized exhibits, the family-owned company with a global footprint will demonstrate its technological competence in liquid silicone rubber (LSR) and rubber processing.

Trelleborg tested new LSR dosing system

In the run-up to the official market launch of the new TOP 700 LSR dosing system, Elmet was able to win over its long-standing customer Trelleborg in Switzerland as a development and test partner. Trelleborg received the new system two months before the planned market launch in order to subject it to comprehensive practical testing under real conditions in Stein am Rhein (Switzerland).

Efficient processing of solid silicone (HCR)

From 1 to 4 July 2024, Arburg will be presenting its extensive portfolio for elastomer processing at the German Rubber Conference DKT in Nuremberg, Germany. The exhibit at Arburg's stand 327 in hall 9 will produce bottle openers made of solid silicone (HCR, high consistency rubber) for demonstration purposes. For this, the electric machine will be equipped with a material feed in the new M size from partner company ACH Solution.

SIGMA and Momentive strategic partnership

The partnership between the world market leader in LSR injection molding simulation and one of the leading manufacturers of silicone and silicone derivatives is good news for the silicone processing industry. The challenge here is to produce high-precision components with high requirements that simultaneously exhibit the highest thermal expansion and the greatest compressibility of all elastomers. The more precise the material data and understanding of the material, the better the predictions made by the simulation. The partnership will offer high added value for this industry thanks to the synergies created.
