Insulating panels
A new machine for producing EPS insulating panels is presented at Plast 2012 (Milan, May 8-12) by Hirsch Italia, based in Albavilla (Como, Italy). The machine, which is equipped with an innovative system based on servo-motors to automatically adjust both sides of the panels in 10 sec, can produce panels with maximum size of 1,265 x 615 mm and thickness up to 400 mm. The machine can produce grooved or dual-density panels which are automatically stacked. Toggle clamping, sensor for steam measurement, both energy saving, and sensor for foam pressure optimize the energy consumption of this new machine.
