Werner Koch / KOCH-TECHNIK central dry air complexes EKO-N
Werner Koch / KOCH-TECHNIK EKO-N central drying complexes feed dehumidified air to multi-hopper drying batteries. Individual temperature regulation per hopper stops granulate degradation, optimizes air volumes, and lowers plastics plant electrical consumption.
- Central dry air distribution servicing batteries of up to twelve drying hoppers
- Individual processing temperature setpoints for diverse engineering resins
- Closed-loop regeneration path incorporating exhaust thermal heat recovery coils
- Intelligent material protection preventing thermal resin degradation on downtime
Werner Koch / KOCH-TECHNIK vacuum loaders 612D, TM6D, and GLASKO
Werner Koch / KOCH-TECHNIK vacuum loaders transfer plastic pellets from storage bags and dryers to feed hoppers. GLASKO glass-body loaders resist abrasive wear when conveying abrasive polymers filled with mineral additives and reinforcing glass fibers.
- Wear-resistant GLASKO glass bodies engineered for glass-filled abrasive resins
- Two-component proportional valves TM6D for seamless regrind virgin blending
- Compressed air pulse-jet filter cartridge self-cleaning on every loader cycle
- Tight-sealing discharge flaps fitted with magnetic level detection limit sensors
Werner Koch / KOCH-TECHNIK central pneumatic conveying systems
Werner Koch / KOCH-TECHNIK central conveying networks link outdoor silos, drying stations, and molding machines into an automated stream. Vacuum pumps and coded distribution tables prevent material cross-contamination and ensure steady pellet transport.
- High-efficiency side-channel blowers and multi-stage industrial vacuum pumps
- Central safety dust filters featuring automated pulse-jet purging canisters
- Coded material coupling stations preventing accidental line cross-connections
- Wear-resistant stainless conveying lines paired with heavy-duty glass bends
Calibration and Commissioning of GRAVIKO Blenders
Precision gravimetric batching in Werner Koch / KOCH-TECHNIK GRAVIKO systems governs polymer part quality and mechanical stability during molding cycles. During initial plant commissioning or when switching to new resin batches, engineers execute static and dynamic load cell calibrations.
Digital signal filtering suppresses high-frequency structural vibrations transmitted from operating injection molding clamps. Regular inspection of stainless slide gates prevents granular fines and dust buildup from hindering rapid batch dumping.
Meticulous load cell zeroing eliminates wasteful overfeeding of expensive masterbatch colorants and performance modifiers.
Maintenance and Cleaning of KED and PU Volumetric Units
Maintaining uniform volumetric masterbatch dosing on extruders and molding machines equipped with Werner Koch / KOCH-TECHNIK KED and PU units requires disciplined servicing. When altering resin colors or additive formulas, the dosing neck is drained through the quick-emptying slide door.
The modular stainless steel dosing screw and barrel insert can be removed without hand tools for cleaning with non-abrasive brass brushes. Inspecting screw flight flanks detects abrasive wear caused by mineral fillers.
Keeping mixing chambers spotless prevents color streaking and resin contamination in finished molded goods.
Dew Point Regulation in CKT and KKT Dry Air Dryers
Dehumidifying hygroscopic engineering resins such as polyamides and polyesters demands continuous dew point monitoring across Werner Koch / KOCH-TECHNIK CKT and KKT drying units.
The integrated ECO control microprocessor tracks circulating process humidity and adjusts desiccant bed regeneration intervals. Routine preventive servicing involves inspecting airline hose seals, checking hopper lid gaskets, and testing moisture sensor calibration.
Replacing spent molecular sieve desiccant on schedule prevents moisture degradation of resin chains in the injection barrel, eliminating silver splay and voids.
Configuration of EKO-N Centralized Drying Batteries
Operating multi-hopper drying installations powered by Werner Koch / KOCH-TECHNIK EKO-N generators relies on centralized dry air distribution with independent temperature management at each hopper station.
When preparing multiple engineering polymers simultaneously, operators assign distinct thermal setpoints on individual hopper controllers. To guard against resin degradation during press downtimes, the system automatically dials back hopper temperatures to safe standby levels.
Inspecting air dampers and cleaning protective return air filters maintains steady airflow circulation and conserves plant power.
Servicing of Vacuum Loaders and GLASKO Receiver Hoppers
Consistent pellet delivery from day bins and drying units to processing machine throats is sustained by Werner Koch / KOCH-TECHNIK 612D, TM6D, and wear-resistant GLASKO loaders.
In GLASKO glass-body units engineered for glass-filled resins, maintenance teams check vacuum seals and inspect discharge cones for abrasion. Prior to each operating shift, technicians verify the automated compressed air pulse filter cleaning cycle that shakes dust into collection bins.
Servicing weighted discharge flaps and magnetic level sensors prevents hopper overflow and shields vacuum pumps from dust ingestion.
Pneumatic Conveying Pipework and Safety Filter Maintenance
Centralized pneumatic material conveying systems engineered by Werner Koch / KOCH-TECHNIK demand precise vacuum blower settings, proper pipe routing, and regular maintenance of distribution manifolds.
To counteract pipe wall scouring at line turns, wear-resistant borosilicate glass bends with static grounding straps are installed along the route. Inspecting vacuum relief valves and renewing central safety filter cartridges guarantees stable negative pressure across the manifold.
Routine clearing of line purge valves prevents resin angel hair formation and blockages over extended conveying runs.
