Smart Molding International 4-2022

9 www.smart-molding.com newsfeed Every three years, the K-show in Dusseldorf, brings the plastics world together for 8 full days. Roctool, perfectly positioned for this 2022 edition, recorded a large number of visitors at its stand. More than 1,200 visitors in total! Among these visitors, more than 60 nationalities with a strong presence from Germany, Italy, France and the United States. Many Asian countries where also well presented. An impressive number of brands came to meet with Roctool on their stand: more than 110 brands were recog- nised by the Roctool team and more than 150 mold manu- facturers. Protocol was able to meet with many prospects, custom- ers, and partners, who were particularly appreciative of the two live molding demonstrations, but also interested in the presentation of Roctool's Eco-Molding initiative, combining innovative textures, recycled materials and Roctool's rapid heat and cool technology. During this intense 8-day exhibi- tion, more than 10 different industries entered into discus- sions on the Roctool stand: Automotive, Medical, Electronics, Consumer goods and Beauty products among others. Roctool's technology and Eco-Molding initiative has received very posi - tive feedback from the industry, thanks in particular to the live demonstrations which prove the exceptional replication and quality of themold surface, and the highmolding performance while achieving ambitious eco-responsibility objectives. Since the end of the show, a number of discussions are already un- derway for the potential launch of new short and medium term projects. Roctool https://www.roctool.com Expanded the range of dosing units of the DGM Gravix series, an unpar- alleled machine that stands out for high precision levels and production flexibility. The new DGM MINI GRAVIX, spe- cifically designed for microdosing ap- plications, encloses all the construc- tive and technological backgroung of the Gravix series. It satisfies the needs of all plastics processors who have to dose very small percentages of material. The innovative hopper design optimises a consistent mass flow for steady dosing and highest accuracy in any conditions. The double eyelid shutter capable of opening and closing in 25 millisec- onds combined with the Rotopulse technology and the free-weigh- ing hopper make these feeders un- surpassed for all types of dosing situations. The VIS (Vibration Immu- nity System) overcomes one of the critical issues of the gravimetric dosing - vibra- tions - thus enabling them to be installed on the process- ing machines.
