K 2025 – The Power of Plastics! Green – Smart – Responsible
From 8 to 15 October 2025 K in Düsseldorf/Germany will again become the main stage for the international plastics and rubber industry – making an unmistakable statement with its motto “The Power of Plastics! Green – Smart – Responsible”. This motto reflects theindustry’s current values and targets, and underlines that plastics form an indispensable component of numerous sectors of industry.
What Do Film Thickness Gauges Have In Common With Pasta Sauces?
Since the mid-1980s, Kündig Control Systems (KCS) has been supplying width and thickness measuring devices to the blown film industry. KCS provides high speed online thickness measurements from the tube portion of the film bubble. This is the cornerstone of achieving optimum thickness tolerances – also contributing to saving valuable raw materials and reducing waste.
Twin Screw Extruder as Key Technology – Research on Use of Catalyzers in Chemical Plastics Recycling
When investing in an extrusion line, flexibility in the manufacture of different products, maximum energy efficiency, minimal personnel requirements, and minimal raw material consumption are of crucial importance. One way to increase the productivity of the extrusion line is through double-strand extrusion.
