HT-Cooling to present new cooling solutions at Plast 2026
At Plast 2026, HT-Cooling will present new solutions in industrial cooling and process temperature control for plastics processing. The focus will be on chillers using R454B refrigerant and new water temperature control units.
New French cooling coupling system Hasco Z8012
Hasco has expanded its cooling programme with the modular French coupling system Z8012 for low-temperature cooling circuits in injection moulds. The solution offers full flow, colour coding and an exchangeable sealing ring made of fluorinated rubber.
New Push-Lok Ø5 system and extended Ø5 cooling from Hasco
Hasco introduces the exclusive Push-Lok Ø5 system and expands its Ø5 cooling range, designed for efficient mould temperature control where installation space is limited.
Push-On system in mould temperature control – clamp-free couplings
Injection moulding process efficiency largely depends on the performance of the cooling system. To optimise changeover times (SMED) and minimise failures, maintenance departments are increasingly replacing traditional hose clamps with self-gripping systems.
ENGEL expands mould temperature control to 160 °C at K 2025
ENGEL will showcase an expanded temperature control portfolio at K 2025, including ultrasonic-based e-flomo and eco-flomo systems rated up to 160 °C and the new e-flomo one for high flow rates. The solutions target lower scrap, higher process stability and up to 50% reduction in cooling water use.
The future of extrusion - significant material savings and smart process control
At the K trade fair in Düsseldorf from October 15 to 19, Promix Solutions will be presenting solutions for mixing, foaming and cooling for the plastics industry in Hall 9, Stand E18. The focus is on raw material savings with the Microcell Technology and real-time monitoring and process control with the Visco-P inline viscometer.
Precision in large-diameter pipes saves up to 1 million euros in material costs
Only 5 mm wall thickness deviation with a pipe diameter of 2.7 m Extrusion technology from battenfeld-cincinnati makes it possible. After all, there is no other machine manufacturer in the world that has so much in the design of complete large-diameter pipe extrusion lines and has installed as many lines internationally as the German-Austrian company.
Kdesign presents new Centro-Freeze 2 output booster
Kdesign, a subsidiary of the Reifenhäuser Group and leading supplier of cooling, measuring and calibration technologies for blown film extrusion, is presenting the new Centro-Freeze 2 at K 2025.
Against hydrolytic degradation: durable PPAs for components in harsh environments
For durable parts requiring special thermal management, BASF expands its portfolio of Ultramid Advanced T1000. The polyphthalamide (PPA) range based on polyamide 6T/6I now also includes optimized grades with high hydrolysis resistance (HR) and high purity.
Expert MouldTemp assistance system from Wittmann tabilizes temperature control
Temperature control has a decisive effect on the quality and efficiency of the injection molding process. This is why electronic temperature monitoring and regulation is becoming more and more significant, since it ensures constancy and reliability of the tempering process.
HASCO monocoupling system - New French system
As a pioneer of mouldmaking with over 50 years of experience in the field of cooling technology, HASCO supports tool- and mouldmakers worldwide in the efficient cooling of injection moulding tools.
