The hottest China LSR seminar welcomed more than 3

China LSR Symposium welcomed more than 300 delegates

svetzburg/Austria - in January 2014, at the invitation of Engel, Dow Corning and elmet in mid December, more than 300 delegates attended the LSR symposium held in Shanghai and Dongguan, which was a great success. The focus of this seminar speech and on-site demonstration is the intelligent system solution for liquid silicone rubber (LSR) processing with the highest efficiency and the lowest cost

"the demand for high-end LSR processing solutions in the Chinese market is rising rapidly", said Gero willmeroth, President of sales and service of Engel machinery (Shanghai) Co., Ltd. "for bulk products, the ability to adapt the production line to different varieties, output and performance materials that may affect our recent and long-term deeds is very critical, which is the only way to maintain long-term production competitiveness." Engel and its system partners can provide turnkey engineering systems from a single source, because only when all the products of the system department can be perfectly matched by the selected parts and materials of sinolion, an internationally renowned daily chemical supplier, can the potential efficiency be fully exploited. Engel victory 110 injection molding machine was used to demonstrate the processing process of sealing ring. Engel, elmet and Dow Corning jointly demonstrated the application of this concept in reality. The processing unit of this model is equipped with mold, injection device, feeding unit and metering pump specially manufactured by elmet for LSR processing

fully automatic, waste free, almost burr free

"the main requirements for LSR processing are that it must be completely automatic, waste free, burr free, and no rework," explained Leopold praher, sales manager of elast/Lim of Engel Austria, "In many cases, the use of Engel victory series injection molding machines equipped with a pull rod free mold locking structure has brought significant advantages to LSR processing. The excellent accessibility and spatial availability of the mold area are unique. Generally speaking, the injection molding machines it requires can be smaller than those usually required for molds of the same size, thereby saving investment and processing costs. At the"

seminar to improve the understanding of practitioners on standards ", The organizer introduced the processing requirements, potential and development trend of LSR in detail. Dr. Hans Peter Wolf, global R & D Manager of Dow Corning silicone rubber, pointed out that "the use of product applications made of different material combinations, such as baby products made of hard and soft materials, will have a significant growth in the Chinese market." In his speech, he introduced the innovative materials of xiameter product series developed for this purpose. In the other two lectures, Leopold praher introduced LSR and injection molding solutions for solid silica gel processing, while Paul fattinger, sales manager of elmet Asia, introduced the concept of special molds, LSR pumps and mixing devices

personalized solutions for fast delivery

at the end of the seminar held in Shanghai, participants also visited Engel's production plant. This factory produces Engel duo series large injection molding machines. Injection molding machines with low and medium clamping force for the Asian market, such as Engel victory series, are produced by Korean factories. Engel is the only western injection molding machine manufacturer with two production plants in Asia. Gero willmeroth said, "having factories in different regions of Asia allows us to ensure shorter delivery times and quickly deliver injection molding equipment and turnkey solutions to the site according to the specific needs of customers."

more than 300 representatives participated in the LSR seminar jointly organized by Engel, Dow Corning and elmet, which was far larger than expected
