PiovanGroup with its brands Piovan, Piovan Fdm, Pelletron and Thermal Care will be present from 15 to 19 October 2024 at the 29th edition of the Fakuma exhibition in Friedrichshafen, Germany. This exhibition is one of the key international event for the plastics industrial processing sector, attracting nearly 1,600 exhibitors from around the globe to Germany.

At the stand A3-3208, the Group will present an overview of the latest technological innovations resulting from intensive R&D activities in the field of automation systems for plastics processing. In particular, a complete range of dedusting, feeding, conveying, storage, dehumidification, dosing, temperature control and cooling systems will be on display.

In Friedrichshafen the Group will unveil several innovations including:

• HandlinkEvo the manual coupling station that allows the operator to correctly match material sources to receivers, reducing errors thanks to a system of flashing coloured LEDs. It can be equipped with Easy3+, a management for centralised feeding systems, which verifies the correct locking or matching of source and destination. In case of problems, such as an open circuit or material mismatch, it stops the feeding cycles and alerts the operator.
• GDS-5E, the new gravimetric dosing system developed by Piovan Fdm, suitable for granules, additives and powders. It supports extruder operations in overfeed and underfeed modes, ensuring full control of the extrusion line.
• Easyfeed+, the new gravimetric dosing unit available in 4 sizes with throughput up to 200, 400, 600, and 800 kg/h and with variable configurations from 2 to 5 ingredients specifically designed for hungry mouth extrusion and injection molding processes, which require high dosing accuracy and homogeneous dispersion of additives.
• C20 deduster the new compact dust collector designed to remove dust and angel hair that can cause imperfections. The design facilitates retrofitting, making C20 ideal for injection moulding and extrusion processes.
• Quantum+, the gravimetric dosing unit that guarantees high dosing precision and accuracy, encompassing all the technical advantages of Quantum and MDW in a single equipment, in a perfect combination that makes it suitable for processing all plastics.

Other top Piovan branded products:

• Modula, the best-in-class multiple hopper drying systems for injection processes that automatically adjusts and controls all operating parameters of each individual hopper, using only the total amount of energy strictly necessary.
• DPA, the compressed air dryer that can reach dew point values down to -40 °C. DPA at the exhibition will be presented in a special medical edition in combination with Moisture Minder, the solution for the in-line measurement of the moisture in the plastic granules with full traceability and monitoring of the production process.
• Easylink+, the automatic coupling station able to handle up to 60 inlets/outlets with pipe sizes from 40 to 76 mm with a minimum footprint.
• Pureflo, the vacuum receiver that eliminates the need of ordinary maintenance for cleaning; at the show it will be equipped with Ryng, the best solution for real-time production monitoring and the usage of the raw material.
• Easypure, through a 3D scenario visitors will be able to discover the unique features of the innovative odour removal system. Easypure can be equipped with Odor Minder, the electronic nose designed to improve the deodorisation process in terms of effectiveness and efficiency.

At the stand, visitors will have the opportunity to try out Winfactory 4.0, the software for the control and management of production process developed by Piovan for the supervision of the digital factory, which enables the tracking of every single batch of raw materials and finished products.

There will also be innovations in the field of cooling and temperature control. Visitors will have the opportunity to discover Easytherm, the complete range of temperature controllers - water, pressurised and oil - under the Thermal Care brand characterised by heat exchange efficiency and process reliability. On display will be:

• Easytherm EW: the open-system temperature controllers for temperatures up to 90°C.
• Easytherm ETP100: the pressurised temperature control units suitable for a wide range of flow rates, pressures and water temperatures.
• Easytherm Flow: the temperature controller with high flow and head up to 140°C, 300 l/min or 130 m head, with reduced process start-up times.

Also on display will be the Slim 1111, the air-cooled chiller with a compact design, capable of handling ambient air temperatures up to +40°. This chiller is applicable to all industries, providing maximum flexibility and energy-efficient operation.

Pelletron, the Group's company specialising in the production of plastics conveying and dedusting solutions, in addition to the C20 deduster mentioned above, will present the DeDuster® XP15, a series specifically designed for the plastics production and compounding industry, available for unloading capacities from 500-1500 kg/h of all types of granular products that need to be cleaned prior to packaging, shipping or processing. Thanks to its low height, the DeDuster® XP series can be installed on bagging machines or moved under or between storage silos.

Join us at the PiovanGroup stand, our dedicated team, including sales representatives and project managers, will be on hand to showcase the latest innovations. Experience firsthand the unique features of each equipment and explore tailored solutions designed to meet your specific needs.
