Plastic materials are found in just about every industry, from aerospace to automobiles, machinery, electronics, and construction. The plastic industry has long played an indispensable role in the industrial supply chain. However, with growing global environmental consciousness and the rise of the green economy, new materials are being introduced and processing technology is appearing in industrial end-use applications. These issues are accelerating the development and transformation of the plastic industry.
With years of professional experience in industrial automation control, we provide a full range of industry-leading products to the plastic industry, including servo motor drives, PLCs, HMIs, temperature controllers, pressure sensors, industrial power supplies, and many more. We have also introduced a cost-effective integrated solution to control hydraulic systems. Our advanced automation products and best solutions create more value for customers by enhancing their industrial competitiveness.
Plastics processing requires versatility & precision. Through customized solutions, R&C Solution meets your specific needs. Our complete range of packages includes AC & DC motors, drives, controls, and engineered safety features. Specific AC & DC motor and drive solutions can be applied dependent on the type of end plastic product being produced as well as the type and size of the extruder. Variable speed drives are used for precise motor control and increased energy efficiency, as well as for environmental and cost reasons. Drives also provide dynamic torque limit for protection of the extrusion screw without speed or position feedback devices, resulting in lower initial investment and installation costs and higher operational reliability.
The melt pump is fed by a speed-regulated, pressure-controlled extruder which provides precise control of the molten plastic output flow, optimizing the consistency of the flow delivery rate. Precise tension control is vital for plastic film processing. The superior speed regulation of drives maintains the tension within the established limits and the fast, accurate drive-to-drive line speed communication provides precise synchronization of take-off roll sets. The film must be wound under constant tension, requiring torque regulation of the winder motor, which must continually adapt to ever-changing roll diameters. This can be achieved either by using a drive with winder software or integrating a separate PLC into the control system.
