NEW TURBOGEL B4 Series – The unique “Profit Booster TCU”
Frigel launches for the first time in market history, a New Generation of Mold Temperature Control Units, specifically designed for cycle cooling time reduction. The advantages for the customer are easily understood, increased productivity and profitability of a single production cell, against an investment with an average payback time of few weeks.
The unprecedented performance of these units guarantees a significant reduction of the cycle time by increasing the heat transfer efficiency between recirculating water flow and mold cavities, thus drastically reducing the cooling time of the actual cycles, over traditional TCUs.
This complete range of units comes in several versions covering most applications:
Turbogel “S” – for INJECTION MOLDING:
This new generation of temperature control units offers to all molders a unique tool to highly improve productivity and optimize their process keeping high quality of molded parts. As an immediate replacement
of standard TCUs commonly used in the industry, these new units have proven uctiviprodty increase of at least 20% in most existing molds and up to 40% in some cases. They are available in single zone (B4SM) and dual zone (B4SD) configurations. Each unit includes a high-performance booster pump per zone, actuated modulating cooling valve, and 6 to 24 kW heater per zone
Turbogel “P” – for PACKAGING:
This unique TCUs are designed for high performance mold cooling in low temperature applications, including packaging molding, closures and thin-walled containers, blow molding, and extrusion applications.
Replacing the direct cooling from Central chillers, these units reduce cooling cycle time of processes running with chilled water by highly increasing the heat transfer efficiency of the mold, obtaining productivity boost between 10 and 20%.
These units are available in single zone and dual zone configurations, including a high-performance booster pump per zone (with or without inverter), actuated modulating cooling valves and cooling capacities capable of servicing the highest throughputs.
NEW MICROGEL™ SYNCRO RSY – A paradigm shift for high-end Technical Molding
“Simply Synchronized Proven Results”
Frigel presents to the market MICROGEL SYNCRO RSY, the most innovative Mold temperature Control Unit featuring patented SYNCROVariotherm Technology, integrated water-cooled chiller and double zone booster pumps.
The new machine-side unit, that revolutionizes the temperature control method for technical injection molding, allows for a drastic reduction of cycle time -up to 60%-, while maintaining the surface quality, dimensional characteristics and mechanical properties of the finished technical products.
The reduction of the total cycle time is obtained thanks to the use of chilled water – provided by the integrated chiller – only during the cooling phase of the cycle, through the digitaltio synchronizan with the molding process, that provides the signal for “deep cooling only when it is needed”, obtaining a significant reduction of the cooling time while keeping the cavities warm during injection phase. The Microgel SYNCRO product line features more than 10 models, with cooling capacities from 16 kW to 56 kW and heating capacities from 12 kW to 24 kW.
As an immediate replacement of standard TCUs commonly used, this new technology has the great advantage of not requiring modifications to the mold itself or any of the molding parameters, making the system communicate with the press while remaining completely autonomous and easily implemented by the operators. The advantages for the customer are easily understood increased productivity and profitability of the single production cell, against an investment with an average payback time of few months.
