The company hs-umformtechnik produces coupling stations at its location in Grünsfeld-Paimar with qualified staff and state-of-the-art machine facilities. These stations are used to supply the injection moulding machines with plastic granules in centralised pneumatic pipe conveyor systems.

From the silo or dryer, the granules are directed to the relevant production lines via the flexibly extensible multi-branch devices. The distributor elements consist of branch pipes, pipe bends and pipe elements. These are connected to DVK-6 pipe couplings developed by hs-umformtechnik, so that they are pressure and vacuum-proof, and are fastened to and exactly aligned with the high-quality, extremely robust stainless steel frame construction using pipe clamps.

With conventional stainless steel branch pipes and bends, granules with a high glass fibre content can very quickly cause wear and tear! The flexible design allows the distributor elements to be upgraded with highly wear-resistant components. For such applications, individual elements such as stainless steel bends, branch pipes and pieces of piping made of special glass or of HVA non-rust stainless steel specially developed by hs-umformtechnik can be installed. If the latter is used, you can expect 20 times the service life. Thanks to its flexible design, the subsequent replacement of standard parts is child's play!
