K Show 2019 - Dusseldorf, Germany
Roctool presents 4 innovations at the KShow
Come and see Roctool in Hall 15, C41 where you can experience:
- Live Heat & Cool Demonstrations on a Complex 3D Shape
- Elevated Sustainability with Roctool
- New range of Generators
- New and exciting Car Lighting Solutions
Live Heat & Cool Demonstration "in action"
Roctool is showcasing their Heat & Cool technology while molding a 3D Shape this year at the K2019. The heat quality is monitored and controlled completely using Roctool's especially designed equipment.
This injection molding live demonstration using Roctool Technology shows the defect free parts with complex features, compared to parts with defects made using conventional molding. The demonstration tool includes the latest Roctool design and induction elements, combined with conformal cooling core and an INCOE hot runner system. The part has no weldline, no sink marks and no blush, with a very high gloss level.
Featuring an injection molding machine from KraussMaffei, Roctool's longstanding show partner, the booth will also include a 100kW double zone generator, interface that pilots the Roctool process, cooling unit and micro thermoregulators that are all tailor-made to run the Roctool process.
The materials selected for the live demonstration at the K Show are:
- SAX Polymers (Saxalac 120T ABS) Beautiful mold in color.
- Covestro (Makroblend SR60 PC+PBT) Demonstrating Piano Black.
Elevated Sustainability with Roctool technology.
In PCR-ABS, gloss improvement of +62% vs conventional molding
100% Recycled, Organic, Waste, Reclaimed or Bio sourced are just some of the materials that can be transformed into premium parts and designs using Roctool Technology.
Roctool will be displaying relevant examples of sustainable materials molded using Roctool technology. Roctool technology radically improve surface quality of recycled resins and some examples will be showcased at the show.
Roctool release a new range of Generators 25kW - 50kw
Exciting new, fast, plug & play connection, air cooled Generators. Easily transportable due to their small size. These new compact, highly efficient range of Generators are a completely new design and fully equipped with the latest technology, ready to connect to any press machine.
Roctool team will introduce at the K Show those new generators including the new 25kW along with Dual Zone generators and other equipment.
New amazing possibilities for Lighting applications with Roctool, Reichle and GF
Guests will discover futuristic digital texturing of car lighting molds designed to optimize the light path and intensity for improved safety, which is a topic of great concern among global mobility leaders. The car light demonstrator exhibited during KShow 2019 demonstrates the synergies of GF Machining Solutions' Laser texturing technology combined with the quick mold heating by induction technology of Roctool's injection and compression molding solutions and Reichle Technologiezentrum's automotive laser texturing. GF Machining Solutions collaborates with Roctool based in Le Bourget du Lac, France and in Shanghai, China, and Reichle Technologiezentrum from Bissingen an der Teck, Germany to demonstrate the customer benefits and possibilities with such a smart texturing solution which meets the immediate needs of customers globally.
We look forward to seeing you on our stand at the K-Show 2019 - Hall 15, C41
