Metal Separators Optimise the Production of Blood Tubes and Syringes
Plastic Products for Medical Applications Must Meet Highest Quality Requirements
The company attaches particular importance to highest quality. Development, production, and delivery of products and services are subject to a continuous process of improvement. For this purpose processes are analysed to determine where and how effi ciency and effectiveness can be increased.
Task: Protection of injection moulding tools and quality assurance of plastic products
For the production of plastic parts by way of injection moulding the medical technology company uses both new granulate and regrind, which may both be contaminated with foreign bodies such as metal particles. In the past this often complicated the injection moulding process because such metal particles resulted in clogging of individual cavities in injection moulding tools, and tools frequently had to be cleaned. This caused expensive production downtimes of injection moulding machines, quality defects of plastic products, and a reduced output.
Looking for a solution for these production problems the company came across Sesotec metal separators. Using metal separators is the most reliable method for the removal of metallic particles and thus for the protection of injection moulding machines and for quality assurance of plastic products.
Solution: PROTECTOR reliably removes metallic contaminants from the processing material
The medical technology company is highly satisfied with the Sesotec PROTECTOR metal separators: "Since the installation of these metal separators the operating time of our injection moulding machines has considerably improved, because disturbing metal contaminations are no longer an issue in the production process.“
