AMUT aims to be more competitive in edgebanding
15.07.2019
Sales Manager Fernando Morandi said: “Last year we acquired four new Europe-based customers, one important player in China purchased two lines, and other two customers confirmed second line orders. To achieve these good results and to maintain our position of leadership, we are committed to update our technology constantly.”
ABS edgebanding production with AMUT’s double venting extruder excludes any pre- dehumidification treatment normally applied in case of hygroscopic materials, such as ABS. Due to a special double venting screw design, it is possible to reach perfect quality with no extra costs and low energy consumption. The extruder has a 52L/D ratio and can also process the latest PP edgebanding.
AMUT’s unique solution for post-embossing of the edgebanding surface has been upgraded to allow the changeover of the embossing pattern in a few seconds, without any production loss or extrusion speed reduction. “The new post-embossing solution has been supplied to an important European customer that confirms full achievement of the expected savings in production cost”, Morandi added.
A new generation of software control systems is now available on all AMUT lines. The operator sets the recipe data and the AMUT software processes all adjustments in automatic mode until the line reaches the desired output and working conditions. Even the speed is automatically controlled according to the width and thickness of the foil to be produced. Operator intervention is thus reduced to minimum. AMUT’s all-in-one approach to line supply includes high-level evaluation of customer requirements, proposing tailor-made machines for specific applications, end-line systems, and special units upon request.
