Deflashing Plastic Parts with Hot Air
​Injection moulding is one of the most common industrial methods for high volume production of plastic parts. Plastic is heated until it reaches a thermoplastic state and is then injected into a mould. During this process a seam can develop on the part where different segments of the mould meet, known as the parting line. This seam of excess plastic is called flash. Flash must be removed from the part when it occurs in an area where surface finish is important or where it will cause an interference.

Common Shrink Label Problems and Solutions
The hallmarks of a bad shrinking job are easy to spot: wrinkling, rising, dimpling, tearing and uneven shrinking. These problems drive packagers nuts and can put off potential customers. Read on to discover possible causes and solutions to the most common problems facing packagers working with shrink labels.

Using a Variable Frequency Drive to Improve your System Performance
Variable Frequency Drives (often known by their initials: VFDs) convert a fixed-frequency supply voltage (60 Hz in North America) to a continuously variable frequency. By controlling the frequency of the voltage supplied to an AC motor, we can control its rotational speed and minimize stress. A VFD can control two main elements of a 3-phase induction motor: its speed and torque.

How to Read and Interpret a Blower/Fan Curve
Choosing the correct blower is a fundamental step in designing a functional and efficient system. We’ve covered the basics of Regenerative versus Centrifugal Blowers and Understanding Blowers as part of System, in this article we’ll show how to read a blower curve and use that information to specify the best blower for your project.

Optimizing Blow-off Systems for Manufacturers
Air knives are used in many industries to remove unwanted materials from processes. This can range from blowing water off of bottles in a bottling facility to removing cooling fluid in a metal rolling plant to removing crumbs from a bakery conveyor system. While the use of air knives for blow-off is widespread, so are the errors in setup that cause ineffective or inefficient operation. In this article we will review some of the fundamentals of implementing an effective blow-off system
